[QUOTE=Tetracycline;24923999]Yeah but at least mind control would give him the chance to hit the insurgent, without it he'd probably miss anyway[/QUOTE]
You know that marksmanship training would let him do that right?
Without the need for incredibly dangerous technology that is subject to fucking up at the most inopportune time, and the mind control will only make him want to hit the target, he still has to do that himself, to try and control the massively complex chemistry of the brain all the way from beginning to the end to perform all the actions required to kill that insurgent it's simpler to just instigate a massive drive to complete the objective.
In other words, he'll miss either way, there is just a higher likelihood he'll miss since this could move slightly on his scalp and make him want to hit a different target.
Wow now I'm definitely never going to sign up for military service, and I was almost thinking about doing it once we fully got out of Iraq.
