Probably not ever again. And it's a hell of a shame, cause some of our own guys could use a slap in the face from a general now and then. (Although not these particular Marines!)

He should be discilplined for that comment. It doesn't put a good light on the military.

I get bad karma for this so let me quote from the UCMJ.Bustem' Down said:
934. ART. 134. GENERAL ARTICLE
Though not specifically mentioned in this chapter, all disorders and neglects to the prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces, ill conduct of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces , and crimes and offenses not capital, of which persons subject to this chapter may be guilty, shall be taken cognizance of by a general, special or summary court-martial, according to the nature and degree of the offense, and shall be punished at the discretion of that court.
Saying that we like to kill people doesn't look good.

I'd like to kill people who kidnap civilians and cut their heads off, you bet. I don't think it discredits the military at all. On the contrary, I'm pleased to see that there's at least one Marine that hasn't been wussified with touchy-feely I'm-Okay-You're-Okay bullshit and all this candy-ass bawling over terrorist who have to wear panties on their head.
These effers that are laying bombs to try and blow up my son and his buddies? I'd shoot 'em in a heartbeat, then laugh and spit on their corpse.

Me too. But to say that it is fun, like it's some kind of game, is wrong.vraiblonde said:

If your going to give me grey karma and not sign, at least tell me if you agree or disagree, because otherwise I can't tell.

Maybe so.
But the shrapnel they dug out of my leg from the car bombing I survived tells me these people play a game of their own.
GO Marines! (Coming from a retired squid no less).
My favorite UCMJ Article:
925. ART. 125. SODOMY
(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration , however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense.
(b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.
Thank God those sheep in Scotland never know of don't ask, don't tell! (Kidding!)
(I know I'm getting bad karma for that)

I'm active navy, and you know that if it were an E-4 that said it, his chain of command would have come down hard on him.scupper trout said:Maybe so.

Baaaaa! We used to make sheep noises on an FF I was on when we stood in chow and paylines.....and they had a copy of the entire UCMJ posted on the mess decks bulkhead..couldn't help but read the thing or at least the more colorful articles....old joke.
I guess the "new Navy" has it's PC police. Then again I had shore duty once in 21 years (my last 4 and at the Pentagon) and hated going to schools or shore stations because the MAA's were always uptight. One of my guys almost got mast for walking on grass one time in Norfolk.
Anyways, support the troops, they support you. Thanks for your service.

Don't see what the big deal is. So he enjoys his job, good for him. Not like this is something unusual for the military, not like we have our guys armed with stun guns 
Heck, people didn't seem to mind when they heard the beginning of bomb saddam from grouchymedia :shrug:

Listening to the audiotape you get the impression he thought he was among friends (contractors and sub-contractors). Apparently there is not such a thing for this military in this nation.

Oh hell yeah!!! 02-04-2005 08:09 AM Freakin liberal that boo hoo's at everything that MIGHT offend anyone somewhere in the world...
I'm not a liberal, I'm not a conservative either. Both of those lack an onpen mind. There is a thing called tact though. I am in the military though and I know that if this guy had been enlisted, he would have been hammered by his chain of command for the comment. We enjoy our job. We like serving the people, but most of us do not like killing people, it's not fun. For something like this to be said by a General, makes us look like animals. We're doing what has to be done. If you think about it, the other side gets enjoyment from killing people. Do you want us to be compared with them?
