Default And the award for worst protection detail goes too...

The Czech Republic!

The attacker wearing military camouflage approached Klaus during a ceremony to open a bridge in Chrastava, a village 100 km north of Prague, television footage showed.

He opened fire with a handgun that fires plastic pellets used in a game called airsoft, similar to paintball, Nova TV said on its website.

The guy fired off about nine shots less than three feet from his target, and no one did anything, except one (a guard?) who politely escorted him away.

Have you had true Budweis ,The original Budweiser? (the forum has trouble rendering the true spelling, so I went with budweis)

Before America pissed in the can to water it down.

So what if they are not as alert, if you had the beer you could see why.

If beer is causing performance like that, maybe they should hire me because I don't drink that I would have put that punk on the floor.

You are also American, with firearm experience as a hobby and not a job requirement. (just a guess, If you are an LEO, I feel dumb for saying the previous sentence)

They cannot all be as skilled as us.

I been shooting since before I had hair on my yakahoola (whatever that means). Most Americans have. You cannot expect the same discipline from those who got a 2 week training session.

2 weeks ????

I thought that to become a secret service man you had to go through alot of training a.s.o and it would take a few years, before you could call yourself a secret service man.

I shot my first weapon at age 7. A shotgun, I held it against my face like I saw in movies, and gave myself a black eye. (I kept missing, so I held it like a rifle, my uncle laughed at me, and called me a moron)
My training course was life experience, hunting game, and tin cans

Not a paper target, and a loud instructor.

That was my point, maybe 2 weeks is inaccurate.

If these are some locally trained wannabes I hope they know there are some big nasty guys with big nasty guns available for hire:



They are only protecting their President...

The Czech beer that has the "Budweiser" merely has the same name as Anheuser Busch nothing more and Anheuser Busch did not copy the flavor of Budweiser Budvar.

Budweiser Budvar, a brewery founded in 1895 by Czech-speaking citizens of ***268;eské Bud***283;jovice.the beer itself has been around longer than that though.Sine this websites sensor is utterly ridiculous I'll code the name using extremely basic encryption key A=1 B=2 Z=26...... first word... 3,5,11,5 second word 2,21,4,5,10,22,9,3,5.

Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch), made by Anheuser-Busch in the United States, was first marketed in 1876 as "Budweiser" in the United States and Canada.

Budweiser Budvar was in the US market in 1871 and for whatever reason Anheuser-Busch did start using the Budweiser name for their beer in 1876 which might be why some think that it a copy of Budweiser Budvar in taste as well as name.

Personally I think that the notion that it was 100% copied is a marketing gimmick used in the US and Canada.


I had that Czech "Bud" once or twice while stationed in Germany it not really anything special an beer as average as the American Bud and tastes worse than the standard Budweiser by Anheuser Busch.It rates poor in my book and I drank a lot of very good German,Dutch, Belgian,and some Czech beers.

The Czech Republic especially Prague is a hot party spot for young Western Europeans because the city is very interesting and unique looking also a man can find lots of "interesting" and "unique" women there trust me and he if is a total failure or does want to try at all he can just go to a brothel(not to say that all Czech women are sluts or anything).As a result of these facts there are tons of cheap beers brewed in the Czech Republic that serves as libation for partyers. I know what I speak of here from personal experiences and of witnessing others.You wont forget a trip to Prague.

The details crappiness was not the result of Budweiser Budvar.

I dunno, they don't look that well to me, their faces have got that black box disease.

I hope that these secret service men are in a big shame now. This time it was, thank God, only some type of paintball gun, but what if....
