Reminds me of the Vietnam sniper Hathcock. Asked by some reporter if he ever had any regrets over killing an enemy. Replied something like “Hell no. But I sure had regrets about my misses; them escaping to go and kill more of my brothers.”

Actually Hathcock regretted one kill. He was sent behind enemy lines to kill a NV general. The North Viets retaliated by killing a lot of Americans and in looking back, Hathcock felt it might not have been worth it.

Or that ass wipe Katie Couric. When she asked a Marine sniper if he “felt” anything when he pulled the trigger, he replied, “Yes ma’am, the recoil”...Stud.
