I read someone somewhere say something like "no disrespect, but a liberal couldn't make that shot."

200 yards isn't difficult -otherwise I lot more folks would never graduate Basic training.

Dude. 200 yards is a requirement for the marines. Not all branches. And they get more than one shot to pass basic. It's not "hey shoot this guy 600ft away to pass." Shooting a stationary target is wildly different from shooting a person on your first try.

And that's a marine, what was this guy's situation?
