. Something you should pay close attention to. You don't have all the information regarding this case. As for my comment regarding multiple deployments, and not knowing what he has lived through prior to this incident, that should be self-explanatory. Mitigating circumstances are not used to assauge guilt. They are used to apply the appropriate sentence for the actions leading to the charges and subsequent trial (which has NOT yet taken place). The fact that you are ready to put a noose around his neck and throw the other end over a sturdy branch of the nearest approrpriate tree is telling.

Hundreds of thousands of men & women have served in our Armed Forces & fought in both the Iraq & Afghanistan conflicts for multiple tours just as long if not longer than Bale. Many have suffered from PTSD, troubled relationships and emotional / physical problems. And yet virtually none stand accused of Bale’s charges.

Please point out where I called for summary execution? I clearly stated that IF FOUND GUILTY i.e. of murdering unarmed men, women & children in the dead of night, he should face the death penalty. If there is any act which demands such retribution is it what he is accused of.
