Here in the State of Arizona we can use lethal force to prevent the sexual molestation of a child.
That would be the civilized way to handle this violation.
What I interpret you saying is that descretion is the better part of valor. That may be in certain situations, but I believe in this case morality trumps wisdom. It may have been wise to ignore the deprivation of a child, but it wouldn't be moral.
Jesus said that who would give a child a stone when he asked for bread. It is incumbent to protect children, especially from Muslim perversions. If one doesn't, then one is no better than the perpetrator.
Their culture needs to evolve and stop doing evil things.
The corruption and evil is so widespread.
God’s going to get real tired of this shit.
If our leadership doesn’t turn around we’re in for big time judgement.
The military discharges this hero, but pays for Bradley Manning’s sex change operation. We have a Politically Correct military.
Sometimes, I don’t recognize the country I live in.
There was more uproar over Cecil the lion than there is over what muzzies do every single day to other human beings. Absolutely sickening.
And no wonder Putin is stepping into the void - American soldiers aren’t allowed to kick ass anyhow. It’s all so infuriating!
That's what happens when you don't celebrate diversity hard enough.
There is no act that makes the situation worse for the child here.
As for the pervert it would be better for him if he were fastened to a millstone and cast into the depths of the sea.
Beating him up is the worst of both worlds. You can BET that it has been taken out on the boy.
Colonel Johnson said: “The entire operational Chain of Command supported the relief for cause and reprimand.”
The whole chain of command, including Johnson, needs to stand trial for aiding and abetting a felony.
I would drum them out like the old TV series “Branded”.
I understand, you would like to think that... but the truth be told, the consequences on the boy are pretty obvious with anything that did not take the offender actually out of the picture.
BRAVE Republicans??? Like in the SENATE and HOUSE, BRAVE Republicans??? LOL!! There are a COUPLE, but the rest are GIRLIE MEN and too afraid to speak up!!! Hey TOM COTTON!!!
Ironic that military rape is very high on the list for psych training but then when those who respond against it are targets.
try again...Ironic that military rape is very high on the list for psych training but then those who respond against it become targets.
This would, at any rate, be justice.
Here is how this type of thing was handled in the past.
General Napier, a British officer, in response to the Indian practice of burning widows, ‘suttee’:
“You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”
Were I CIC I’d release this idiot Colonel on the spot and order both these men reinstated with back pay and an increase of one grade in rank.

“Vigilantism is illegal in the United States and should not be condoned elsewhere,” Johnson wrote. “We should do our best to ensure that the accused is brought to justice legally and fairly — we should never take the law into our own hands (as Martland and Quinn did).”
That may be part of the problem. There is a point at which those in charge are doing things worse than if there was no rule of law at all.
Perhaps vigilantism is needed there... and here.
Well, I don't know about the boy, but I think the soldiers acted with restraint. Sometimes action is what counts and the consequences be damned. If consequences weren't damned, then we wouldn't have a country today if the patriots were concerned with consequences.
Your statement is the easy way out and if everybody thought that then the world would be one hell of a place.
