I recently posted a link to an American Defense Enterprises (ADE) video, by way of Tam’s blog. That video was so roundly criticized for its buffoonery, posing, and insanely unsafe gun handling that it was removed from YouTube. But for any of you that missed seeing these poseurs–in all their Mall Ninja splendor–I’m pleased to report that the video was preserved by a blogger and included in this critique: American Defense Enterprises: Epic Facepalm In 3 Parts. Personal note to ADE President Bill Beasley: Please mail me a certified copy of your DD-214 and then I’ll believe your claim of being “former Special Forces.”
