My guess is this is one of the terrorists (the correct word for people who use unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims), not one of the normal Americans. The guy with the bloody nose is probably part of the group that jumped the SEAL, and he's lucky the SEAL kept calm and remembered that the entire jury would be DC residents if anyone (meaning a conservative) faced trial.
No, it's the other way 'round.
I just learned (on this thread) that troops will often carry tampons into combat to help stanch bleeding in case of gunshot wounds.
