Are we absolutely certain that this was not staged for sympathy?

Did you ever watch someone die?

"...Are we absolutely certain that this was not staged for sympathy?..."

If I understand this person, he is suggesting that her shooting was staged, filmed and distributed to the world by elements supposedly friendly to the dead woman.

While I readily admit there is little that takes place in this world that surprises me anymore, I take this statement from this person and the intentions in which he posts with a grain of salt.

This was a post from this person a little while back, talking about the events at Abu Ghraib:"...But I must admit that even all of these years later, the anal Glo-Sticks were something that still elicit a chuckle. That does not make me a bad man..."

On his final statement, I beg to differ. When he replied to me by a a post dripping with sarcasm, I did a search on his posts to see if this particularly sarcastic post to someone with whom there was no posting history was a unique thing for this person, and found that to the contrary, it was the norm. I did not recall that he had been the one to post this reply to anally inserted glo-sticks, but I remembered the post all too well. I also remembered how angry Allegra was (correct me if I am wrong here, Allegra) because people were sticking up for the dipstick Lynndie England, and she made the accurate observation that life for our troops on the ground became significantly harder and more dangerous as a result of this kind of monkey business that took place at Abu Ghraib. This guy got a chuckle out of it.

For someone who seems overly concerned about the welfare of our troops, he picks and chooses on the basis of his own perverted moral compass.
