I saw this disgusting photo on Monday with no article but one has finally come out in the Marine Corps Times.
Please do not get nasty if you would like to talk about this but be mature with the situation. Personally, if he wanted to express his frustrations to the world, there are so many other ways than to hang yourself on a damn cross in your Dress Blues, especially on Easter Sunday!!!!!
People often regret stupid actions when they don't receive the type of attention for them that they wanted to receive.
I don't have a lot of sympathy for somebody who is playing the martyr card (quite dramatically and graphically), claiming to uphold values and honor and standing against what he deems to be misaligned Corps values, when he himself fraudulently enlisted, hiding an apparent history of psych issues.

you are cold hearted.
I think this man was distraught and not in his right mind. He was probably discharged for that reason. IT is very sad, HE needed help and rather help him, they saved a few bucks and
discharged him instead.
Where are coming from???

I don't think he deserves any sympathy from the public or positive media attention. This is one strange (for lack of a better word) person. He's been discharged, and it is time to move on.

First, learn to spell. Second, read the article on why he was discharged.
And no, I'm not cold hearted. Where did I say anything mean about this man? My husband is a Marine so yes, as a USMC wife, this photo outrages me. He could have gone about this so many ways but chose to display himself in a very negative light. People in the Marine Corps community fought hard to wear that uniform and to see him wearing it on a cross when a cross (to me) is meant for Jesus, is absolutely appaulling.

Oh I just didn't want a huge bashing/gossip session. That's all. Believe me, I'm not thinking happy thoughts.

he did not choose. There was a demon in him snd he listened to it.
perhaps you dont know that everyone has one in them. Are you familiar with exorscism? He needed one.
ITs also cold hearted.
He was not in his control
AS far as my typos, I am not a judjmental perfectionist. I Dont judge when someone errs, that
is Gods job.

Did you read the article? It states the events that led to his discharge.
Although I'm not going to argue against mental illness, given that he concealed his history of torturing animals in order to get into the service.

According to the article, many people seem to believe that,
"“Dude was butt hurt over being court martialed,” one commenter wrote when the photo appeared on the off-color Marine humor page Just The Tip, Of the Spear. “He just wanted the shock value, so people would pay attention to his whining.”
He should have never been allowed in the Marine Corps to begin with, he wasn't stable. You would think they would check criminal records. Sheesh. That said, that was one mighty cry for help and I hope he gets it.
