Cop Or Soldier?

[mrjarrell]

Radley Balko, over at the Agitator, is running a pictorial quiz. See if you can ID who's a cop and who's a soldier. It get's pretty hard in many cases. I scored an 81%. It's the eyes, man. It's all in the eyes.

I scored only 67%, and I used to be a soldier.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Eyes?

Dude, it's about the BMI. Look for the belly tight and full of fight.

An AT4? Really? They get stovepipes now?

 

[rockhopper46038]

67% here, too.

 

[NYFelon]

76%.

And yeah, I picked the anti-tank wielder as armed forces on that basis alone. A few of them you can see badges or insignia.

Missed three (76%). The cop on the armored veh with the M60 and the rocket launcher (Dragon?) threw me the most.

Why the hell would they need rocket launcher?

So they can get home safely at night.

 

[Dogman]

86%, missed 2 because I listen to the wife!

 

[Tripp11]

90%, and I've never been a cop or a soldier...just riding a desk in the professional world; although, I do watch some Military Channel and a lot of Cops. LOL

76%

 

[rphutchi]

52% I guess they all look paramilitary to me. It makes me curious who they and what they are preparing for. Tanks for cops seems a bit over the top.

 

[GBuck]

67%

 

[Al B]

81%
In the present reality, the difference is trivial.

 

[hornadylnl]

I missed 3. The easiest way to tell is how tacticool the gear is. The cop gear will be newer, more awesome and look less abused.
