Certainly! But, CJ was not given the benefit of hindsight. You know the saying, hindsight is 20/20. That is what I was saying.

I have had to act in a split second on several occasions. I also made some mistakes, and thank God it did not cost me or my buddies their lives, and constructive criticism is important so I don't make that same mistake again.

I always try to remember, that, we have that benefit of hindsight - CJ did not. People will except criticism better if we also look at it from his perspective too.

Thanks for the post

I think this is a great thread, because many valid ideas have been floated. I think we are all are being given a chance to think, what would I do in that situation?

It is my opinion that CJ never thought the situation all the way through. I believe he was very lucky it turned out well, no harm, no fowl as they say.

The question becomes, did he learn anything?
