1. Sure seems to me like someone hates them for the way the do things.
Remember * saying they hate us for our freedoms. I so think he condones if not tells the military to do this sh*t.

2. It's makes us look like inhuman monsters
Can't they drop rice on the weddings and save the bullets for the funerals where someone's already dead?

I hate this.

3. See and I thought
That these guys were all for marriage!

I thought that Chimpy's "values" encouraged marriage between a man and a woman.

So, I have an issue with someone firing rounds from automatic weapons at a wedding party and hitting them with MISSILES FROM HELICOPTERS!

Maybe it's just me.

4. This kinda shit comes straight from the top...
When Flag Officers and DOD officials crack down on this kind of Cowboy shit, then it stops happening. If they give their tacit approval, then you get things like My Lai, Abu Ghraib and this one.

When I was in the army in the late '80's, early '90's, it was a different climate. We weeded all the psychopaths OUT then....

Now, they're promoted...
