WOW I'm Surprised
« Reply #15 on: November 16, 2004, 12:09:14 AM »
I saw the video tape tonight on CBS (Audio was played with a still of the room scene after it was dubbed 'too graphic' for television) and I listened to the voices.

"He's playing opossom"
"He's f**king pretending to be dead"
"He's Breathing"

I'm in BDU's and recently watched a bunch of my buddies get wounded or killed.  I see one of the bad guys on the ground doing what I think in the next 5 seconds might cause me or my buddies to die...that guy is getting 3 rounds in his chest no questions asked.

Anyone who wants to see that kid disciplined I only have 3 words for you, go f*ck yourself.

That's where I stand on this issue.

Sites reported a Marine in the same unit had been killed just a day earlier when he tended to the booby-trapped dead body of an insurgent.

Well, if that's the case I wouldn't blame them either.

This thread was tardiffic: the 11 posts at the beginning were just bashing of 'amerihaters' by 'good citizens' on the account of what the 2nd group was thinking that the 1st group should already have said to fit into the name that the 2nd group gave to the 1st group....*

Then SOB spoiled it with wise words.

Shut up.

Try to imagine being in a situation where your life is so tenuous it could be extinguished in a moment.   Try to imagine a situation where other members of your unit have been killed by bad guys playing possum.   Try to imagine deciding whether you should save your life, your friends life, or the life of someone whose entire being is to kill you and yours......

I have no issues with the military sorting this out.

That the best you can answer with? You need to attack Steve McQueen (who is DEAD, and has nothing to do with this, and cannot speak up for himself) to protect John Kerry? How truly sad of you. Of course, there's no reason at all to expect better of you.

One thing is for sure, Steve McQueen didn't hide his record as a United States Marine, he didn't lie about his fellow soldiers to dishonor them while trying to advance his "career", and he didn't need Jimmy Carter (the clown prince of pardons for scumbags) to get him an honorable discharge.

Your "hero" :rolleyes:  on the other hand, had to get his honorable discharge years after he left the service, and despite running on his military "record" refused to sign for a full release of his military records. Not to mention the fact he did that while DEMANDING George W. Bush release all of his. Thing is, George W. Bush DID release his. Why don't you ask your "hero":rolleyes:  why he hides his FBI records as well?

Yes, rpm, while you bad mouth Steve McQueen, go get your scumbag hero and demand he release ALL of his military records, and the FBI records as well.

Wow...don't f***k with S. McQueen in front of Virgil! :eek:

As the author of post #8 in this thread, I fail to comprehend how the humorous anthropomorphizing of an inanimate object could be considered as amerihater bashing. The sole purpose of that post is to illustrate how a citation could not actually be a witness, but is rather a result of witness testimony.

Feel free to read this several times in order to comprehend it meaning.

Naa, Virgil is still having post election anxiety syndrome. He needs to attack someone completely uninvolved with the subject at hand and still has Swiftus Boatorum Anxietus. The shock of reminding him that his mancrush was a mainline heroin junkie with more tracks than Santa Fe brought him around nicely.
If I told him Mc Queen only drove the Mustang in Bullitt for 10 seconds and screwed that up he would completely meltdown.:cool:

No posts from the "Amerihaters" so you have to post it?

LOOOL!

I agree with him.

My meaniness wasn't directed at you.  I don't think I've ever read a post by you and thought, "man that's stupid".  Sometimes, I've left confused and bewildered, but always in a delightful way. :D
