And most of those helicopters don't have a gun.

Context, Paul. Remember that the context is the claim that a US
aircraft carrier scrambled "2 helicopters and 4 fighters" to intercept
a UAV. Every naval helicopter isn't an SH-60 and not every doorgun is
a GAU-16, but it's pretty much a given that NO Naval helicopter is a
Lynx and no Naval helicopter doorgun is an M3M.

Hint for Paul - Capitalization in this case matters, as does context.

:happening or not.

Just confirms the dishonestly of Paul's mind - nothing he claims as my
attitude above has anything to do with anything I've said. In other
words, once again he lies.

One more time, Paul - context matters.
