Marines are hired killers, as are any soldiers. When we send them into combat we don't want them to be thinking too much about the value of any life that isn't wearing a GI uniform. . Wow, talk about twisted and narrow...My dad was a soldier, he was hired to teach other soldiers how to pack chutes... not to kill anyone. You missed the "combat" part I guess He saw no combat.. was not trained to fight other than in basic. His job was support for a bomb wing. "He" was not expected to kill anyone... |

What a stupid, ****ing, question. One has to only consider the source. There is some question as to whether this was a prank. Apparently, there is a fake stuffed puppy that looks exactly like the "puppy" that was chucked. There is also some question as to the audio. Here's the puppy in question. http://www.magic.org/store/product_i...oducts_id=4119 It's a sick prank, but still... My comment had to do with Harry's anti-military sarcasm. The questions about the video were in the original article. Harry's comment was uncalled for. |

You think it sarcastic to suggest the military needs to screen out misfits better than it does? |

Can you say truthfully that you have never lied about your education? I have never lied about my employment record. Can you say truthfully that you never lied about your employment record? I have never lied about personal accomplishments. Can you say truthfully that you have never lied about your personal accomplishments? I never lied about my possessions. Can you truthfully say you've never lied about your possessions? I've never posted other's photographs with the pretense that I'd taken them. Can you truthfully say you've never done so? I learned long ago that lying only makes your look the fool when you are found to have lied, not if you are ever found to have lied. (Thanks BAR) |
