> LETTER FROM RET. MARINE CSM AND RET. MARINE MAJOR
2 September 2004, 05:18
Actually, and unfortunately, active duty military persennel do not have the same civil rights as civilians. Yes, he can be charged witha crime under the UCMJ. It is unusual for such a thing to be done, but these ain’t normal times, face it. Americans are getting arrested just for wearing tshirts and stickers that are anti-Bush.
People, this is why we need to be working to get these evil assholes out. Their treatment of this young man is all part of a larger picture of disrespect and mistreatment of our military. Bush/Cheney/Rove, they all use the troops as photo-op props, as cannon fodder, then cut their benefits. Worst of all, they show our troops no respect whenf politics is involved, and for them, politics is ALWAYS involved.
They think service is for suckers, that’s why we have things like the Swift Boat Vets Lies and the purple heart bandaids at the RNC convention while they all cheer for their Deserter in Chief.
VETERANS DO NOT MATTER TO BUSH, except as something to use.
