that's an ignorant statement, how many people have Americans killed for lesser deeds ??
None.
Only comparable thing I can think of involving Americans is the Rodney King riots but that was certainly not for "lesser deeds."
And BTW this is the 2nd time they've done this. They rioted last year too over the same thing.

Doesn't reflect on all, probably not even a % point of Afghanis.
Point 1 - So what? I never claimed it was reflective of any certain % of Afghanis so your statement is irrelevant.
Point 2 - It's reflective of more people than the post I responded to since my post is based on international news reports of thousands of protestors all across the country whereas his post was reflective only of his personal experience, yet you didn't call his post out as "ignorant." Biased much?
I've learned not to be quick to accept the "official" story, or judge too quickly. Because, it takes a while for all of the facts to see the light of day. I'm supposing anything was possible. Single madman doing the shooting, or a squad of soldiers. Time will tell.
Odd that you would rather believe a Russian Communist Anti American publication (your link)so readily and throw your own news media under the proverbial bus, makes me wonder which side of this war on terror you sympathize with.
This is the price we pay for abolishing the draft so that left-wing university students can safely remain drunk, stoned and oblivious whie our volunter army does the bleeding and dying.
Our professional soldiers are abused and repeatedly sent on multiple rotations/tours of duty in place where we have no reason to be. The population in Afghanistan is hostile to our presence, our culture, our whole way of life. The Taliban are the Vietcong of the twenty-first century. Our President seems set to continue our ten-year adventure in a country that has defeated every major power that tried to control it. There is no end in sight.
But what the hell. He's going to be re-elected. He'll think of something...
Our troops are carrrying the ball in a game they are not allowed to win -- just like Nam. Is it any wonder that a tiny percentage of soldiers fip out and go on a killing rampage? Happens all the time with civilians in the US (Columbine, Virginia Tech, you name it....); it should surprise no one that troops surruonded by barbarians occasionaly go nuts. It has happened in every war since the beginning of time.
Want to keep this from happening again? BRING OUR TROOPS HOME NOW, MR. PRESIDENT.

I'm not in a war on terror. I have no terrorist enemies.
If you have studied dis information, you would know. The Russians love to uncover our sins, and vise versa.
It's a game with them. When you've read and studied the flow of information, it becomes second nature to read between the bull crap.
The MSM's have never been MY media. They are corrupt mind control masters that drip mediocrity upon the US population. How's those Royals doing across the pond. (WHO Gives a SH@t).
They are not news agencies they are Tabloid journalists at a minimum.
Real news is not on the MSM's stream.
