Couldn't agree more. I saw this really strange picture of this US soldier on patrol, crouched down against a wall on some street. Sitting right beside him was a shopkeeper on a stool, just hanging out, waiting for a customer. It struck me as really bizarre to be jus hanging out a foot or two away from this guy in a flak jacket with a huge machine gun and it was obviously the norm for this shopkeeper.
