Should have been death. I don't care if he did it because he was a Muslim. SInce when did they get a special pass?

He only did because he'd gotten yelled at, not because he was Muslim (if he actually is one)

Boykins will be eligible for parole after serving one-third of his sentence.

WHEN did they add parole to MILITARY SENTENCING?

It's always been an option.

Of course, parole is contingent on (a) his actually being granted same (it is NOT automatic) and (b) his actually living through that period of time (which is most assuredly not automatic :o)

With such an important story, why would you betray Freepers with such an incredibly incomplete report?

For this garbage you should be banned, you know.
