If this were true about these Marines it would have meant something special. So many look up to the ideal of what a Marine is.

However in this case, i find it false. Nothing Marine like about these guys. Do not feel they conducted themselves, in the way they should represent marines, on the contrary, they make them look like a frigging joke.
I do understand the condequences of being overseas, away from family and friends. I understand what seeing dead bodies is like, and when they kill for the first time, what that feels like. When their buddy is blown up in front of them, i can understand. I know of some marines and they do not act like that in any way.
I disagree with Perry. I agree the punishment should be appropriate, but not to harsh, that they cannot make up for their wrong doing.

But isn't being a Marine also about Pride, and doing and conducting yourself in a high manner. Can't handle the situations then please do not go into the military.

For those of you that have never been in the Marine Corps. We value integrity. We define that as doing the right thing even when no one is looking. These Marines will be punished accordingly but their actions neither cast aspersions on the Marine Corps nor do they define the Marine Corps. It was a good kill and they should have left it at that.

That urine was desecrated on those scum bag Taliban, in my opinion. We sacrifice our soldiers to please the very people who will hate us anyway!! Yes...these men need to be punished. But not with the HEAVY HAND Obama and Penetta are going to use!!

Man...this angers me!!
And these idiots have given Islamic terrorists some perfect anti-US propaganda footage to recruit more terrorists and whip them up into a frenzy to go blow themselves and lots of innocent people to smithereens.

Nice work guys.... not.

Exactly, what you said!! About the propaganda, they don't need much. They're breed for hate, they hate us and it doesn't matter if we bow to their needs and wants, the terrorist want the U.S.A. vanished off the face of the earth. Peace is not their solution.

Sad, we seem to forget the bodies they've dragged through the streets, hanging soldiers from bridges, beheaded soldiers thrown in the streets. Two wrongs don't make a right, but these men are under a lot of distress.
As we sit and type away on our computers, in the safety of our homes.

Thanks to every solider that has served, so that we can sit and talk about something most of us know little about, that thing called "War."

A summer breeze sets those nuts off! I say let's give them something to be mad about, since they are anyway!

This is the one enemy that will attack you, even if you leave them alone. It's crazy!!
