If everyone had listened to me, this would never have happened.
Because there’d be no Marines in Af’stan in 2011, “building schools” or whateverthef*ck.

In the end, it was a break down of discipline. But what’s worse is that there was a break down in security allowing common lame retribution to make it to the internet.

The fact that it made it online signals frustration on behalf of the troops.
When you’re in a state of mind where your chain of command may or may not have your back as the rules of engagement change on a political whim, and you don’t know if you’re going to be alive from one day to the next, taking a whiz on a dead raghead/taliban/jihadist/mujahadeen (in that mindset at that moment) is very little retribution for real soldiers.
