Three Grenadier Guards and two members of the Royal Military Police Murdered
Three Grenadier Guards and two members of the Royal Military Police were shot dead by a police officer who entered their secure compound in Helmand province. Six others were seriously wounded alongside two Afghans.
Although the Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, the gunman, who escaped and was being hunted by British Special Forces, was recognized by guards and had been a member of the Afghan National Police for three years.
Keeping it real by George....."Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." "If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter" "When firearms go, all goes. We need them every hour" "Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder." ~ President George Washington ~
