The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

American journalists suck. I don't see why they wouldn't - after all, they suck everywhere else, too. I'd go as far as to say that British journalists are number 1 in this regard. We win again. |

I don't get it either. Is the idea that journalists refer to all guns as glocks, no matter what they are? What about the aircraft and ampersand charts? |

I'm LOLing pretty hard right now. Riley: Anything resembling a rifle that isn't bolt-action used for hunting is generally called a "machine gun" - as though an American legally owning an AK-47 owns a fully-automatic weapon (which of course isn't the case). Furthermore, any pistol is often referred to as a Glock - when Glock is a specific manufacturer of one general "type" of handgun. It would be like referring to every bird as an Eagle. Readers would get the wrong idea about the number of eagles on the planet. |

Obviously, the only gun that is actually an AK-47 is identified as an M16. |
