\"emblem\"<\/div>\n

Retired Army Green Beret Smokey Taylor was court martialed this weekend, and came away feeling good about it. Taylor, at age 80 the oldest member of Chapter XXXIII of the Special Forces Association, was on mock trial by his peers under the charge of \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Failing to use a weapon of sufficient caliber\u00e2\u20ac\u009d in the shooting of an intruder at his home in Knoxville, Tennesee, in December.The entire affair, of course, was very much tongue in cheek. Taylor had been awakened in the early morning hours of Dec. 17, 2007, when an intruder broke into his home. He investigated the noises with one of his many weapons in hand. When the intruder threatened him with a knife, Taylor warned him, then brought his .22 caliber pistol to bear and shot him right between the eyes.

\n#1 Never bring a knife to a gunfight.
\n#2 Never enter into a gunfight with a caliber that doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t start with a 4.
\n#3 Aim center mass!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
