SEAL team charged after prisoner capture

So… did you read the source before lol’ing at it?

They link to this: http://www.cybercastnewsservice.org/cns/webuploads/Burton-Seals%20Letter.pdf

Because of the source does it mean that letter is a fake?

Exactly. I heard about the letter and did a quick google search to find an article.

It’s amazing how quickly people will just dismiss a source if they don’t agree with it. Of course, 99% of those people also probably think the Daily Show is good source for news.

The three, all members of the Navy’s elite commando unit, have refused non-judicial punishment — called a captain’s mast — and have requested a trial by court-martial.

Meh, they know they won’t get charged. I don’t mind the charges being brought up, because yeah you shouldn’t beat up detainees (what if it was a civilian by accident?). But of course in this situation they knew who he was 100% and he deserved a little bit of a beating, and the charges will certainly be dropped.

I wasn’t dismissing it. I had no reservations as to the accuracy of that particular article. I just thought the link that was provided was very fitting in regard to character. I understand how my LOL could be unclear. Sorry.

PS: I am not in the 99% that think the Daily Show is a reliable, objective news source. I’m not refuting a specific allegation, just sayin…

Dude…everyone knows the Cobert Report is where its at lol.

cool story bro!

Any more updates?

Oh and to jays- anyone who thinks that a “news show” on a station called Comedy Central is a legit news source, well… Really now. That show is a blatent farce. When you put a show that is 80% opinion and 20% fact on a station that has the word news in it’s name… thats when things tend to become a bit scary.

So every skinny and raghead that we pickup should be allowed to press charges against those that scoop em up, and then the process can evolve and when found not guilty, the elite can go back to doint their job.

Thats a real good policy, that will take those that are the best, and already over worked, and just push em to leave.

We don’t press charges against every cop that pepper sprays, tazers and lump up bad guys, why are the USASOC community any different in their treatment.

lol @ “bad guys.”

What if your girlfriend gets arrested because she resembled someone who just robbed a bank? And they pepperspray her and taze her before throwing her in the back of the squadcar? You don’t think there’d be charges pressed?

What if the guy they picked up that they were 100% sure was the terrorist, was just some innocent guy? And they knocked him around?

Do you have any clue how many people get a thumpin for just being mouthy to cops on a nightly basis?

Do you understand what goes on during combat? Because you talk like were dealing with a potential pick pocket, not some guy that is killing american soldiers.

These SEALS went in at night, grabbed a guy with not so much as a shot fired, and all he got was a wack to make him comply, but that is deserving of charges?

I now know why this is our generations VN, cause people are so detached from reality, and live in some dream world where they compare my girlfriend to a terrorist and think they both should be treated the same.

:uhh:

Biased much? I agree that the charges are probably bogus and it’s just a matter of people doing their jobs. The SEALS were doing their jobs, the terrorist was doing his and the commander who pressed charges was doing his…

However, don’t try to formulate a response on detainee rights by including “raghead” in your opening sentence.

Well, you might have a different view of these “terrorists” doing their job, if you had to tell a little girl why her daddy isn’t comming home, or saw the results of a roadside bomb.

But your right, I’m biased, and your crying about my use of vulgarisms towards a terrorist threat that wants nothing more than to kill your and your family, if given the chance, then your just as biased, but indeed, your on the wrong side of this deal.

Thats my .02 towards this.

Lmfao, you’re the kind of conservative even JayS is embarrassed by.

and you’re allowed to type that because the big fat meanies in the military do their job. Do I agree with everything the country and military do? No, not at all. But I know full well that if the military wasn’t there, this country would be blasted to shit by every western-hating extremist out there.

Just because we live in a society that allows us to sue over spilled milk doesn’t mean that the rest of the world works that way.

These guys subdued a terrorist who publicly took credit for the atrocities he did. He wasn’t hiding what he did, there was no identity error, and he wasn’t some pick pocket at the mall. He got punched in the face and apprehended to be tried for what he has taken credit for. Do you think that he and his forces would do the same thing for an American? Oh wait, that’s right, they hanged them from a bridge and burned them alive.

Get your head out of your ass.

“The chinaman is not the issue here, Dude. I’m talking about drawing a line in the sand, Dude. Across this line, you DO NOT… Also, Dude, chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American, please.”

“Shut the fuck up Donnie”

Hey asshole, don’t put words in my mouth. You and glitch should stop by Sams Club, buy the jumbo Vaseline, and have a great two man circle
jerk thinking about me with as much as you bring me up in your posts.

First post I’ve ever mentioned you? Cute though. Classy buttsex joke. :tup:

I’ll just assume now that you’re so far right that you actually agree with n20.

I think a lot of people agree with n20.

You’re the type of liberal that is destroying America.
