Lest anybody get the wrong idea: I love the show. Never miss an episode.... Figures... Do you have a point? IMHO that show is the most gawd awful show on TV, perpetuating the myth that the gov't will keep us 'safe' at any cost, freedom be damned...

Better yet, GO to a different government. You are free to do so. Still, it doesn't explain why you said "figures" to Mortimer's post. Are you so familiar with his personality or behavioral profile to "figure" that he would like a show like the Unit?

Well, some of us are able to tell the difference between reality and a tv show.

Are those who happen to enjoy this show irregardless of its warts in some sort of undesirable class? And what did I do to earn his enmity? -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN mschnerdatcarolina.rr.com

That was a tactic used by Russian pilots in WWII. Just because they ran out of ammo was no reason for them not to attack a German fighter. It was also a tactic used by the Germans. They had specially equipped FW- 190s with steel propellers and limited armament. The plan was that they would use their props to cut the tails off of Allied bombers. The German pilot would then presumably parachute to safety. John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) -- Message posted via http://www.aviationkb.com

I think he's just one of those liberal anti-everything-military that gets annoyed when anyone in the military is portrayed to be hero-like.

If that show is representative of our military then yes you are right. However, I know that it is a fantasy show that in no way mimics reality. The reason it is such a bad show is exactly because of responses from folks like you who seem to think it is a reality show....

What makes you think that me or anyone in this thread thinks the show is a "reality show?"
