Well, the FBI says this:
More often than the officers they attacked, gangstas delivered at least some rounds on target in their encounters.
Nearly 70% of gangstas were successful (In getting rounds on target) with handguns, compared to about 40% of the victim officers, the study found. (Efforts of gangstas and officers to get on target were considered successful if any rounds struck, regardless of the number fired).
?So our military troops are bad marksman because the Taliban still exists? Or because terrorists still exist?
Pretzel logic...
AFAIC, these gangbangers are the real deal - they're as likely or more so than you or I to be willing to take a life with little provocation and practice more than both of us combined, most likely.
