No I am not advocating that the Marines retaliate against him I am just looking at it realistically... If you have a bunch of pissed off Marines that think a buddy has been slighted they may decide to take out vigilante justice... It is not something I would personally condone but to be realistic about it it could happen.

I personally think the Marine was rightous in what he did. His fellow Marines may see it that way too, but they may also think that this guy is a Media hack from the MSM that is trying to paint The Marines in a bad light in Iraq.. There are thousand of Great Soldiers in Iraq doing their job, but it only takes on that thinks he is being slighted to make a stupid mistake and harm Mr. Sites and for his own safety I think the pentagon need to remove him... Is that clear enough of an explanation?

Marines are used to dealing with--and living with--people they dislike.

Retaliation is a sign of guilt.

Any Marine who does that deserves to spend a lot of time in Leavenworth turning big rocks into small rocks.
