Sup /x/

Want to hear a really pretty lame story about how I disappeared completely from my life as a minor criminal in the United States?

I can probably write the whole story in one post.

I got busted for drug dealing at 17 and got let off with a warning. Busted for drug consumption at 19 and hit with a fine. When I was 20, I got drunk and fought a cop. I ended up hurting them pretty bad, and had to go to court. I somehow managed to avoid prison or jail time, and was stuck with 3 years probation. I worked construction for a little under a year, and kept all my earnings in cash.

If anyone's ever heard of the French Foreign Legion, you'd know that they're notorious for accepting small-time criminals and anyone who's pretty much SOL in life. I bought a plane ticket, packed a bag with 2 changes of clothes and a few small items, and flew out to France.

It's been 4 years now, and I have a new name, I'm a citizen of France, I haven't contacted anyone from the US, and things are alright. I'm pretty sure the US won't come after me any time soon, considering I never murdered anyone, but I'm going to re enlist for another 5 years before I leave the Legion.

Yep. That's pretty much it.

Bonus: I got to see some crazy shit in Africa.

>consumption

I meant possession. I was consuming the drug and was caught while consuming, so possession was the actual charge.

Interesting, from my /k/ keyboard warrioring the FFL seems to have tightened up on the the people they accept in order to avoid criminals, so I'm a bit skeptical. Then again, this is about the most likely thing I've read on /x/. Can you tell me a little about the FAMAS? Very few imports exist in the U.S.

LOL

FFL hasn't really tightened up on allowing criminals in. The only requirements are that you aren't wanted by interpol. I met some crazy old fuck in the Legion, must've been nearing 50, smoked a pack a day and was always drunk before noon off this piss cheap Legion beer. Rumors had it that he couldn't leave the Legion because if he did, he'd be arrested on the spot for all the crazy shit he did before he joined.

I'm not sure if I could really compare the FAMAS to any rifles you'd find in the US. I never shot a gun before I joined the Legion. It's kind of lunky to carry around, and a some of them are in poor shape due to the low funding that the Legion gets.

I'd feel bad talking shit about it, it's saved my life on numerous occasions, but I can't help but feel there's a better rifle out there for the Legion.

It's chambered in 5.56 NATO but I'm sure you knew that. Mounting any sort of sight on it is a hassle due to the lack of a rail, but it shoots ridiculously fast at full auto. I can't think of any combat situation in which I used it's full-auto feature, but I'm sure someone has. It's quite accurate up to 300-350 meters for the average Legionnaire.

I think I'd prefer something chambered in 7.62 for the higher stopping power. I remember a few firefights in which guys would get hit by the 5.56 in the chest, get up, and run away to bleed out somewhere else.

It bothered us not knowing whether or not our targets had died.

HAHAHA the guys over at /k/ are assholes who just like to bicker about the difference between tacticool and Kalashnikov models. I'd rather not.

I have 8 months left on my 3 years probation for an unrelated crime and I'm wondering why you felt the need to flee? Unless you were just resetting your whole life because probation is pretty doable unless you're a for real/helpless addict.

Also, in NY, statute of limitation never runs out for absconding from probation. They won't look for you but if you're arrested you'll do the time for your original sentence. I hear it's the same in a lot of states.

I'm suddenly fascinated by the Foreign Legion. Can OP or someone else somehow personally familiar with it tell me about it?

I didn't want to deal with the expungement process. I talked to my lawyer about it, and it would sap my income for years and would also take anywhere from 5 to 10 years to get my record expunged.

I have no real family ties, and my friends were all junkie shitbags and other criminals.

I figured, hey, why not travel the world, learn a new language, and start all over?

To expand on the tightening up, they've certainly tightened up on what type of person they let in. You really have to be serious about joining when you step into one of the recruitment offices. They'll send you to Aubagne if you seem serious, but they'll break you down in a heartbeat once bootcamp SHTF
