The sad thing to me is that somebody made the decision to change those Rule of Engagement, essentially sentencing Randy and his friends to death without trial.
Nobody stood trial for that or even was disciplined, AFAIK.
I don’t have as much animosity for the actual shooters. They were just doing their job, though admittedly they should have refused the orders they were given.

Police states can’t exist if the police refuse to “just follow orders”. Lon Horiuchi is a murderer who is no different than a concentration camp guard. The actual shooters are the actual killers.
I think that what the SS Nazi said at the trail after WWII. When it all turns to shit very few of these American SS will even get the chance to say I was only following orders. All men stand trial if not before the law than before the Father of us all.
