Marine eh???
reminds me of Full Metal Jacket, with R. Lee Ermy telling the recruits about how good of a shot marines are. Like Charles Whitman(I believe that was the 'Texas Tower'sniper)and Lee Harvely Oswald.

Dad was a Marine and he went on to be a peace officer for 22 years in the 'Four/One', Fort Apache in the South Bronx...how come he never got a headline..."Ex Marine risks life, protecting bodegas in the Bronx.....feeds his family too boot, after risking life on Guadlecanal and Bougainville"

Because that would pay homage to true American values, and also has nothing to do with promoting Socialist "progressive" politics.

Our fathers were great men.

"Marine eh???"

Actually this perp was booted out of the Marines for drug use. The proper term is "Shixtcanned marine". Note the lack of capitalization on the word "Marine".
