The guy sounds like a goldbricker to me, Wonder if he was even in My Marine Corps.
You said "Let's see, a recruiter who lies, cheats and deceives? And this is news???"
And I take offense to that.
The Marine recruiters I know work their tails off and are up front, telling people this will be the hardest thing they EVER do.
And guess what? That's what these young recruits want. They want the challenge and they want to be the BEST. And they are.
Actually Burkett has exposed close to 2000.
And they all sounded just like this guy.
Claims ofg being in combat, 'remorse' over having killed kids, women etc.
It's a pattern, complete and repeated.
Did anyone get it on film?
30 years from now, this jerk may be running for President.
Maybe the "Iraq Vets for Truth" will trip him up.
Did you shoot the six year old on purpose or on accident? If it was on purpose, then you're a war criminal. If you were told to shoot the child, then you and whoever gave that order are war criminals.
If it as on accident, then you are being obtuse. Clearly you know the child wasn't a terrorist.
Any questions?
At any rate, his story reeks of fraud. I'm sure he's trying a move out of the old Al Hubbard playbook.
If this man is telling the truth, he should turn himself in for committing war crimes, and name any officer(s) who ordered him to deliberately shoot an innocent six year-old boy.
I've got calls out to my list of contacts still in the recruiting field. We'll see if this POS is real or not. If not I'll hunt him down myself for desecrating the good name of my beloved Corps.
Recruiting fraud is punishable for up to four years after the contract is written and is a punishable felony. I'm continuing to check if he was in fact a recruiter.
A Kerry wannabe?
"I want to be elected to the Seante and I'll say anything to find a rich stupid liberal woamn with money to support me and my dreams of being just like all the other liars." / JFKerry sarcasm off
If you take offense then I'd say you are too easily offended.
Nothing personal meant. No inference about the recruits either.
That the author of the article goes on about recruiting as if misleading statements were news is a bit much for me to stomach.
if even half of what he said is true... then the Marines should oblige this coward and arrest him and try him for MURDER since he ADMITS to COMITTING MURDER in public every chance he gets.
their pathetic little protests on the 19th should be fun to watch too...
the Peoples DemocRATic Republic of Ithaca EVIL!!!
You People in the Communist Southland, need a Town Meeting Form of Government, it would fit your Rebel ways.
Please let me know what you find out. I really smell a rat here!
bump for later
