Seems someone got the attention to the inspector General of the army & complaints from the ICRC have come in. They are now investigating use of the DCNG Red Cross marked helicopter for protest suppression.

(40,212 posts)1. I also thought it was very dangerous
to use helicopters to disperse the protesters. Imagine the horrible tragedy that could have happened if there was a crash or accident. Malcolm Nance is right. They are fucking idiots.

...would be a big plus for Trump. The headlines on RW media would be, Protestors down Medevac Helicopter, die in the crash.
