Everyone's favourite "love to hate" mercenary group Blackwater has found some of their members in some legal trouble after apparently
killing some civilians in Iraq with quotation mark covered grenades. Go democracy and capitalism and he military industrial complex and Voltron! Also probably He-man.
EDIT
If you watch the video, notice that you can turn the volume up to 11. That is all.

Given that they have been around for years, and this is the only case we've seen of misbehavior, it seems like they are fairing better than some of our military, in terms of behaving correctly. Of course, what these 5-6 guys did was inexcusable. It sounds like they saw a IED go off, and just started shooting everybody.

This isn't the only case of misbehavior, there was that chopper incident awhile back...

There's a lot of shit out there about horrible things that group's done, just most of the time it gets swept under the rug and nothing to see here.
What they've done in Iraq is horrible enough, but you only need go as far as New Orleans and read what they did down there during Katrina to see what kind of upstanding soldiers they are.
