Marines video: What’s your reaction?

Yours is the first reply that I can understand. After growing up a military brat and then serving 23 years in the Army and Army Reserve, one thing I have learned: The difference between a mob and an army (or marine unit) is discipline. These Marines lacked discipline.

And they were stupid for allowing it to be recorded and posted online.

That said, I would give them an Article 15 for Conduct Unbecoming. The powers that be are going to want a Court Martial for every charge they can find.

Okay, so let me clarify. You WOULD BE DISAPPOINTED if our Marines started sodomizing prisoners to show their dominance and inflict humiliation on them, right?

“I’m not saying Pee-Boys aren’t real Marines,”

No but you inferred it. Now you seek to deny it. I don’t blame you, though. To trash a Marine is to trash me, along with a select few other Marines.

You know, this pissin on the deceased enemy is much betta than what we once did. So I am seeing a lean toward political correctness in today’s Marines. So hold your head high! Progress is being made.

But we still kill them at each and every opportunity. It’s our job. It’s what we are hired to do.

semper fi devil dogs. Piss on’em.

If you mean I implied it, you are still wrong. (The speaker implies, the listener infers.) You inferred it, but what I was challenging was the other poster's assumption that any Marine who disapproved of this was not a Real Marine. Now have I put it clearly enough for you?

Now you can bitch at me all you want but my reaction is unchanged. I am disappointed in them. You will not harass me into changing my mind OR shutting up. The original poster of this thread asked everyone's opinion and among others, he got mine. You don't like it? Tough. If you're as macho as you think you are, a woman's disappointment shouldn't mean that much to you.

honor pi$$ing VS. honor killing

And thats a tough call for a woman who does not wear a burqua?

Not the sharpest tool in the shed.

I think a real man doesn’t do either one.

Kudos to you Fred, hitting the issue dead center is your consumate skill. Thank you for a decisive post.
