People like him are the reason that soldiers don't get the respect they deserve. He is a disgusting person that should of never enlisted in the Marine Corps. Innocents are killed in any conflict, but to purposfully kill an innocent person is murder.

Yeah, he was clearly one of the few, choosing by themselves to do the things he mentioned....

I couldn't harm an innocent/non-combative individual, let alone kill them. That's absurd. I'm appauled and could go into a tirade about this crap, but I'm way too tired.

I've heard similar stories from people I know who served in Iraq. Especially the army scout sniper I'm friends with.

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

If you guys heard some of the stories by some of the Marines I know, you would be disgusted.

If that sort of thing actually happens as often as he says it does, then that is disgusting and horrible.

impulse, I believe Tech is/was a marine?

Gatyr, it does. However I have seen a similar video of a mosk pole being fired at with the justification that there was a sniper on the top.

Do you expect us military servicemen and women to be sent to war and act like royalty? War is a scary and life changing thing, and this type of behavior has existed in every war this country has faught in. I'm not justifying it; i'm just saying that there is nothing new here.

I don't know if what he is saying is all entirely true. I highly doubt the Corps would let people do some of those things and then talk about it without being punished. Something smells fishy to me.

I thought the whole bit about storming into houses on raids and screwing with the family was messed up. One of the signs that made me think that one particular guy was messed up was the fact that he got F you tattooed on his hand in arabic before he even got to Iraq. To me this shows his instability, not saying that any of this never happens which im sure it does, but i think he might be a sociopath the way he was talking about it. He didn't show emotion he said he was regretfull of doing the things he did but i doubt he meant what he said for some reason.

Tell me, have you ever served in the army? Have you ever been to Iraq or been in any war?

Or are you just a self righteous kid who thinks that He knows everything and considers himself to be above everyone else.

Just because you sit behind your computer and play internet know it all doesn't mean you know a damn thing about whats really going on over there.

Hey, wow, I agree with Da Hui for a change.

It rather irks me when people who have no clue about a certain situation deem themselves qualified to judge others.

Does that justify killing innocents? No, but who the hell are you judge anyone whose been in or is familiar with a situation that you know nothing about other than what you see on CNN?
?
