May 1, 2004 -- A college student called NFL star and war hero Pat Tillman an "idiot" who "got what he deserved," and now he's getting payback.

Rene Gonzalez wrote the vicious piece in the University of Massachusetts paper, The Daily Collegian, just after Tillman was killed in action in Afghanistan.

Gonzales needs an "attitude adjustment", a.k.a. a good a$$ beating!

UMass president Jack Wilson said Gonzalez's comments "are a disgusting, arrogant and intellectually immature attack on a human being who died in service to his country."

Note to Wilson: You reap what you sow.

Outstanding editorial!

Pat Tillman symbolizes all who have courageously served and made the ultimate sacrifice.

God bless them all. Rest in peace, brave warriors.

I like your idea. This particular weasel needs to attend "services" at Harmony Church.

Just desserts.

That P.O.S. has an alligator mouth and a canary butt. I'll bet he's feeling real sorry for himself about now.

Talk about an "idiot" who "got what he deserved," . . . "it was prophetic idiocy."

Talk about having your words come back to bite you!

Gonzalez e-mailed a Boston TV station to apologize for being "insensitive.".

In his own words, "That was not heroism, it was prophetic idiocy."

The only thing I can add to this jerk's own words is this:
ONLY SNIVELING COWARDS EMAIL APOLOGIES.

Heh heh. You know what the great thing is? Writing something to the effect of "I hope you die with festering boils all over your pimply body, you miserable POS" or "I'd like to crack your skull between two cinder blocks and watch all the roaches run out" are not really "death threats".

Though they might be a tad "insensitive".

...the Collegian has received more than 1,300 e-mails - almost all of them outraged.

It's not 1971 anymore.

This POS isn't qualified to clean the latrines at Harmony Church.

This punk will soon have a close and personal encounter with an avenging Ranger....

I'd like to see him with a sideline pass to an AZ Cardinals game... Although an all expenses paid trip to Ft Benning might be more appropriate!

He looks like a metrosexual. He'll probably contract a horrible venereal disease.

You are right about that. I just think it would be nice place for him to visit sometime soon. I am sure the cadre can come up with ways to keep him entertained,LOL.

Speaking of cleaning latrines, during basic training I polished a hole in a copper pipe once at Harmony Church. They were that worn from generations of cleaning.
