The NY Post needs to tighten up its shot group.
Stand clear of the submachine guns.'Submachinegun M-16 assault rifles.' Right.
In an unusual move, a heavily armed NYPD security battalion with enough firepower to wipe out Downtown Brooklyn descended onto the city's subway trains yesterday in response to suicide bombings in Russia that killed dozens of passengers in Moscow's subway.
Bleary-eyed New Yorkers began their work weeks with a morning rush hour that featured city cops in full military gear, including helmets, goggles, body armor, sidearms and M16 assault rifles.
The photographer must have asked, because in the slideshow captions they get so close...
An armed officer on the Counter Assault Team carries an M-4 Colt Carbine machine gun on the No. 6 train.So close.
As for wiping out downtown Brooklyn, maybe so. I was going to remind everyone of the great line from Casablanca: "There are parts of New York I wouldn't advise you to invade..." But I was there not that long ago, and I'm not sure it still qualifies.
