Good points, Jinx. But they still miss the obvious point that Military need to do less. Period.
Police do just that. Police. Military do what? They wage war, and protect the country they serve with force. A little Rogue in NY is not an excuse to pull out the heavy artillery. If a man holds up a convenience store, does the army roll in with fighters and tanks? No. A few police cruisers roll in and take care of it. With words, first off.
Now if Hellfires invade, or there's an Outcast strike team, roll in the heavy artillery by all means.
