U.S. soldier charged with 17 afghan murders, facing death penalty

[UltraOmega]

up.

[Eh?]

The military breeds young impressionable minds to be thoughtless killers, and everyone gets angry when they do exactly what they were trained to do. Sad that a mans life is going to end because of mental break down likely from what he's seen/done overseas.

[icanseeu1985]

deserves to die... not a single fk is given

I am not on the side of the killer. But the government has something to do with this........... force people into battles they don't believe in, extending someone's stay etc.......

The government/corporations play a huge part; in creating sick/****ed up people. I am not using the government/corporations as an excuse. These sick ****s need to be killed/locked away. But something could have been done to prevent these ****s from going postal.

[LikeEmThik]

lol at you *******s who think a good family man should be given the death penalty just because he snapped after seeing his buddy get maimed and decided to kill a bunch of scumbag sand nogs.

[depression1brah]

Deserves every ounce of punishment that is possible to get for him. What a scummy kunt...

[OldEnuf4Kisses]

Deserves to be slowly tortured not given a quick death.

[FuzzeWuzze]

I'd be honored to flip the switch on this dude.

[Suit]

inb4 hes just sent to the USDB or prison for 1000 years with parole in 10

[nutsy54]

inb4nutsy shiity rant

What "rant"...? That I've already condemned his disgusting actions, just as I've condemned every other service member who's committed violent crimes?

Go f*ck yourself if you're trying to pretend I'd ever "defend" this murderous scum.

[briiii]

Never happen. It's called an insanity defense. No death penalty, no jail time. Some therapy maybe. Then talk shows, reality shows, book deal, movie deal.

The insanity defense rarely ever works out in reality.

[Simmo89]

Anybody here know the full story and what the soldier went through before doing this????

didn't think so, shut your mouths.

When the hell did the military ever "train" to murder innocent civilians? Take your moronic propaganda somewhere else. Millions of combat deployments... if your claims were true, the bloodthirsty rates of criminal violence would be astronomically higher.

[inb4ripped]

That guy is a huge *******. Not only did he kill those innocent civilians (including children ffs) he is putting all the other soldiers in more danger due to retaliation.

Should have been tried in Afghanistan and then stoned to death.

hes an ******* for sure... but this is after muslims killed soldiers in retaliation for kurans burning in a fire a little while back... the guy is insane and should get punished, but war changes a person. did you know he suffered a traumatic brain injury during his last deployment and was shipped to the middle east after anyway?

[PhoenixFlare]

he deserves it.

Brought himself a one way ticket to hell....

[ECbrah]

Iraqi or Afghani militant kills his own countrymen, comrades, colleagues and US soldiers - it didn't happen, it's propaganda, he's not a true Muslim, US shouldn't be there etc
US Soldier kills a bunch of Afghanis: brb not complaining when Afghanis kill Afghanis; but soldier deserves death penalty

No one says that and it's Afghans, not Afghanis you ignorant retard. Afghani is currency. Pls go.

[CubZ]

the government has nothing to do with it.

his parents have nothing to do with it.

His wife has nothing to do with it.

He owns it. execute his ****ing ass.

CPL USMC 97-01

People like these are the ones that spread hatred among races/religion. Now those Afghans are gonna stereotype this dumb phuck as all "Americans". Thats how racism spreads... More awareness needed!

I'm not a one to judge and say he deserves to die or not. Its just a disgrace to humanity being ignorant and just hate on/kill innocent people.

But who gives a fuark right? Its KONY 2012 era goin on.. FUARKIN MEDIA!

[Jmart14]

hmm

the disgrace is that soldier.

[Burgerbuger]

The guy served multiple tours and we don't honestly know what type of psychological trauma he endured. Now that does not write him off for murder, but I don't think he deserves the death plenty.

why?

[BossNguyen]

**** just got real!

[halfguard]

Before this ******* enlisted into the army, he was a stockbroker and scammed a client out of $850,000. Only wish the worse for this excuse of a human being.

in after nutsy shiity rant

[moneybrah]

Doesn't the military have some psychological evaluations you need to pass before entering? I don't see how he could plead insanity if he passed those evaluations.

Yea but its been said hes been deployed a couple times you can go insane that way. But im pretty sure they gonna make an example out of him they have too or it would make relations with afganistan horrible

tooo muchhhh truceee

[N4th4n]

the little ******* deserves it, he should be tortured beforehand

justice isn't an emotional process. I'm always amused seeing you peons claim someone should be tortured. Is this the middle ages?

[Love-Feet]

Is there not a conspiracy about this yet saying that the US government hypnotised him into doing it and thats why he cant remember ****? so then they can carry on doing all their ****ed up **** and let you kunts think they arent being too bad over there and are punishing US soldiers for crimes like this

I hate conspiracies but if you just look at this as a whole, US kills **** tons of people every day in the war secretly and no one says anything (cant say anything if you dont know about it though i guess) and now this happens to give the government some boost

(no theorist), i dont know **** about this but it just makes me skeptical when stuff like this happens
