LAS VEGAS (October 9, 2015) — Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said Thursday that Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl should have been executed for leaving his post in Afghanistan.

"We're tired of Sgt. Bergdahl, who's a traitor, a no-good traitor, who should have been executed," Trump said to cheers at a rowdy rally inside a packed Las Vegas theater at the casino-hotel Treasure Island.

Susan Rice says Bergdahl served with "distinction."

Mullah Omar thought Bergdahl served with distinction.

We should never have taken him back. We should have told teh Taliban, “Sorry, you’re stuck with him.”

[GOPJ]

Hell yeah is right!

[PROCON]

Only if you give me one of the loaded rifles.

And with all of the other American traitors!

These executions could raise tax revenue!

Every interested prospective citizen/executioner could buy a lottery ticket, for say $10.

Tens of thousands would apply for the honor of pulling the trigger. 6 lucky entrants would do the honors.

A win-win for America

[PROCON]

Oh, yeah, I forgot.

Shot, out.

[Logical me]

Trump is right. Instead of millions spent on this rat a .20 cent bullet would have been justice.

[combat_boots]

Six dead men, who knows how much materiel, and at least one seriously-disabled vet agreed that Bergdahl is a waste.

[rlmorel]

Okay. That’s good. I like that statement.

[The_Republic_Of_Maine]

He is right.

[LS]

Absolutely right. His initial offense-—desertion in a combat zone-—could have been judged by itself worthy of execution, but magnified by what he told the Taliban and the soldiers killed looking for him, execution should have been mandatory.

Thanks MartinStinson.

I’ve got to admit, Trump gets more impressive by the day.

I've grown to admire his ability to drive the progressive liberals and their willing co-whores in the liberal lamestream media, completely batshit crazy.

I agree with Trump. When did the USA stop executing those who committed treason anyway???

[fireforeffect]

Yes, but tradition is that the firing squad is from the same unit. Traditionally this would be from the same regiment. I think they shot Slovak (sp?) with soldiers from the same division. 4/25 ABCT members would probably be pissed off at being denied the opportunity. As someone who was there I know I would.

Splash, over.

[PROCON]

Good point, but I'm not only talking about Military traitors, we have plenty of the others infecting our country.

Splash, out. Right 200 drop 100, fire for effect.

-— I’ve got to admit, Trump gets more impressive by the day -—

True.

And he’s demonstrating that NOTHING HAPPENS when you contradict the paper tiger PC police.

[lormand]

Same for Snowden

[fireforeffect]

Deserters are shot.

Traitors and spies are hung or what ever the current favorite method of execution is. I believe they electrocuted the Rosenbergs.

The problem is the Constitutional requirements for a charge of treason. Very hard to meet. Espionage is much easier.

Target description please, shell and fuse combination, over. Otherwise you are getting one round of HE delay. I have not done Talk an untrained observer through a fire mission in years.

[PROCON]

Well, this old 13E hasn't called in fire in 35+ years.

Fire Mission, troops and armored vehicles in the open, shell NUC, fire for effect.

Assuming you already have the coordinates, of course.

Did I hit anything? :-)

The UCM is administered by military people favorable to the POTUSA. Obama planned and knew this and it is why he could foist a traitor and family on the people of the US.

Bergdahl ping.
