I knew a fellow who served over there, and he told me that it was normal behavior for men to rape children in Afghanistan. By all means, lets bring in more muslim "refugees"!
I never had to face such a situation when I was in 'Nam but I probably would have just shot the rapist and moved on. Some crimes are so obvious you just cannot let them happen without doing something about it.
I just heard the ARMY dismissed a Soldier for interfering with a child rape by some Afghan dog. That is just plain wrong. if we have allowed our command to become politically corrupt it is time to get the hell out of there and replace the command that would condemn one of our soldiers for doing the morally proper thing.

This isn't just "a" rapist. They'd have to kill everyone in the room.
Before they start doing that--especially with leadership approval--a decision needs to be made of whether the US military is going to take on the whole job of reforming the morality of the Afghan culture...or get the hell out, tout de suite.

I'd like to see more information about a "dismissal" for something like that than just "I heard." On the face of it, I don't believe it.
Yep! Except ..as far as giving them weapons, I think my Dad was onto something, when he said we should give eevery one of them a weapon and 1000 rounds. His actual words were "an M14 and 1000 rounds". I changed it to an AK and 1000 rounds. I wouldn't waste M14s on them. That's WAY to fine a rifle to give to some ME fleabag. I'd give those to our own people, first. AKs? Who cares. Then, just pull back, put up our feets, pop a brew, and make some hot wings. They'll kill each other, inside of 6 months, won't be much left, but the oil fields.
The second amendment of the ME restricts to stones.
What is illegal in the ME is Life, Liberty and Individual Decency.
Carrying a concealed stone without a license is punishable by death.
There is a solution for every barbaric custom. There are no more human sacrifices south of the border. The Mayans were mostly exterminated. Either evolve or be eradicated.
The Mayans weren't exterminated they are a majority of the people of Guatemala and can be found in Chiapas, and the Yucatan states of Mexico as well as Honduras. They did have to undergo the cruel forced conversion to Catholicism by the Spanish who turned their attentions southwards after dealing with the Mexica. one should accept that the treatment of native Americans by Christians was as barbaric as anything they might have done before. The Spanish nearly destroyed all traces of the written record of the Maya they kept in codices on leather sheets.
