Sniper training is a little tougher, than basic. Look at how many that didn't make it through. He saw it as a very tough waste of time I guess.

Well I didn't sign up for the guns, I signed up because I wanted to serve and be apart of something bigger than myself.

But I'm still in the ING though so I'm not really doing anything.

I wanted to sign up because i wanted to be a good guy. I also want to get out of a boring life.

If I had a nickel for every teenager I ran into who wanted to be a Marine Scout Sniper , jeez.

All that sniper stuff doesn't appeal to me anyway.
-looks sort of boring just lying there for 3 days just to fire 1 shot.

I like the other Criminal Justice students who say they want to be tactical police snipers, when police have marksmen, not snipers. Sniping isnt all about the guns, its about camoflauge, concealment, stealthy movement, observation, etc.

I actually have classmates in my Criminal Justice class who admit they only want to become a cop so they can drive fast and carry a gun.

Then the professors says "who here wants to be ERT/SWAT" and literally 3/4 of the class raises their hands.

I just came from my Criminal Investigations class today and almost half the class wanted to be FBI. A couple wanted to be DEA or ATF.

I'm studying to be a DEA Agent or FBI actually.
Definitely not ATF though.

This one student said he was planning on being a lawyer and the class sneered at him.

My prof joked at some guy in class when he said he wanted to be a defense lawyer and said that prosecutor all the way.

I want to be a k9 officer, SRT too but theres a deifference between big city SWAT teams and an SRT team.
