Why would I bother searching for a newer video when you didn't bother to link it? It isn't my job to put forth your claims, fallacy user.

As for the cost, that was my point exactly. It costs money. Both an initial investment and recurring. I didn't say it was some huge amount, but with all the current cries for reductions, any amount needs more justification than normal.

As for loss of control, there is always a loss of control. You can point to video after video of someone who tested it and it will not show real scenarios. I am glad the ONE example you found (since both your articles are about the same incident) was a successful use, but it is still an experiment. There have been many pit maneuvers that have been used successfully, and some that have had much more tragic outcomes.

To paraphrase you, Now go on and strawman some more to excuse more government spending.
