I would love to see you call him a coward to his face, especially since you are the one that has never served. Yes, I keep saying that, but unless you have an actual idea of what military life is like, and to put your life on the line everyday, you have no room to call him a coward.

You still don't get it: someone's sister is being raped in the superdome; someone's brother is being shot through the belly by thugs; General Honore isn't yelling at the hoods. The idiot is yelling at the troops! Wrong war, General! And, yes, I will gladly tell that to his face, and he would probably be man enough to admit he was wrong!

DO NOT sit there and tell me that I do not get it. Again, you know nothing about me, just like I do not know anything about you. So f'ing what if he is yelling at his troops. They are under his command and if they didn't want to be there, they would have gone AWOL.

OK, let's see your op order? How would you have handled the communication to the troops, established a perimeter, regained control, all in the span of a day? The emotions are high, the tensions were overflowing, DO NOT tell me that I do not get it, because brother I've been there.
