Exactly so. That mirrors the reason "tribe" is used as descriptive, a native American organizational structure that has survived the advent of the Republic. Each of those who are in charge of something are in charge because of specialized knowledge or ability, not as a popularity contest, not a "democratic" selection. (Besides, what grunt would be stupid enough to question the topkick in the heat of battle? Or, as I have heard of: "Gunny, you are in charge," said the colonel. "I know strategy, not tactics.")
Yeah, a team of organized Boy Scouts wouldn't have too much trouble taking them down. The Trader could/would have taken everything they had, and there is nothing they could have done about. I'm wondering how many if any of these yoyo's will get a firearm after this film project is over. jim
