Fighting The Islamic State of Derp

By Bob Owens | 12:11 PM | April 28, 2016

Terrorist groups continue to threaten us here in the United States, and the realities of 9/11 and other terrorist attacks in Europe, Asia, Africa and even here in the United States shows that both terror cells and lone actors can cause carnage.

That allowed, those timid souls who insist that “only the police” can fight back against terrorists are making unfounded assumptions. Properly trained American citizens can easily be more than a match for idiots like these.

From muzzling their allies, to “spray and pray” firing, screaming over getting hit with brass, not being able to keep track of their magazines, and cooking themselves with the back-blast of their own RPGs, these Islamic State fighters are a comedy of errors.

No wonder they wound up dismounted and dead.
