See my tagline.
Wow. Sorry we didn't provide that for you.
Are you even more disappointed in us now?
Precisely.
Well said.
Not at all. There is usually a coterie of police worshipers on FR who vigorously attack anyone who says anything bad about the police. Glad to avoid them.
In 1968, 1LT William Calley was involved in the mass murder of an entire village, and the only punishment he received was three and a half years of house arrest.
I still can't get my head around that one.
I disagree- He was a casualty of his own flawed morality. The conflict that he was engaged in didn’t cause him to rape that girl, or murder the family.
Maybe the prison system should provide the means for a lifer to remove himself in a more humane manner.
“Regardless of what he did hes still a casualty of a disastrous, wasteful war.”
I hate it when people strive to excuse rape, it’s because of poverty, or stress, it’s Bush’s fault, it’s Obama’s fault, she asked for it.
Please, give me a break.
I can see where some ‘abuses’ might be occasioned by the brutality of war, but raping a woman (or girl in this case) - no.
10’s of thousands of American soldiers have served in the Middle East. Less then a handful have raped children and killed innocent civilians.
I fear this evil person would have done this regardless of being in a war zone.
That is insane, I think in a civilian court you get 15 years.
He isn’t a victim, he is the bad guy.
