    If you mean that there are no clips in any of the weapons, that's normal. You don't want any rounds going off in marches like that... -- Where are we going? And why am I in this handbasket?

      OK, the woman right there in the middle behind the woman and the guy standing closest to the camera, is wearing a red headgear, while all the others have it black. That's what is odd. Oh, and the tree in the background on the left looks odd too. The sky looks like a cool gradient done in photoshop. The woman whose face and everything else is hidden by the guy's hand is also actually a guy. The woman standing closest to the camera, next to the guy, lost one of her gloves. There, take your pick. :)

            Well if their men are gonna die, then they might have thought they might as well send in the women. What good will a country be with only women and children alive. On the other hand this might be a fake photo shoot, specially as the guns all lack clips. Nish

                        You would think they would put the clips in their guns, I mean it's not like you have to fill the clip with bullets for it to fit in the gun. Oh well, it wouldn't have made that big of a difference anyway. Brad Jennings "if the golden arches shut shop, where else are the VB people going to get work." - Colin Davies

                            Hannibal Smith once asked B.A. Baracus for "clips" in an episode of The A-Team, so I call them clips. ;) (Funny thing, B.A. had been hypnotized to fall asleep when he heard the word "eclipse" so he could fly without being scared. He fell asleep in the middle of a firefight when Hannibal said "clips" and hilarity ensued!) --Mike-- The Internet is a place where absolutely nothing happens.   -- Strong Bad 1ClickPicGrabber - Grab & organize pictures from your favorite web pages, with 1 click!
