    Hypocrite
    I thought you said it was me that supported violence against women? You've been going around this board posting that every chance you get.

    Of course you have no facts to back that up. total lie......used as a smear....however the people who post here know the truth of that.

    I have actual reports here of many, many women being assaulted by the American military..........none of that concerns you?

    The military is increasingly issuing something called "moral waivers," so they can enlist military personnel with felony convictions for crimes like rape and sexual assault.

    “We don’t enlist convicted rapists in the armed forces of the United States,” said Michael Dominguez, the principal under secretary of defense for personnel and readiness. “If there’s a consensus 'that kid needs a second chance, I think he’s got it in him to be a solider,’ then they’ll let him into the armed forces.”

    In fact, CBS News has learned that both the Army and Marine Corps did issue a number of "moral waivers" to enlistees with felony convictions for rape and sexual assault - something not acknowledged in a follow-up letter from Dominguez.

    But it's not just who enters the military, it's how sex offenders are ultimately punished by the Command.

    “We have documents showing that a private convicted of rape, who had a bad conduct discharge suspended so he could deploy to Iraq,” Couric told Dominguez. “How could the U.S. military allow a convicted criminal to go back into a situation where he could easily rape again?”

    “I’m not familiar with this particular case,” Dominguez replied
    So they knowingly allow rapists into the military.......

    (CNN) -- Investigators in Japan are investigating a second reported sexual assault connected to the U.S. military, police said Thursday.

    Investigators said they are looking into allegations that a member of the U.S. Army raped a Filipino woman on the island of Okinawa.

    Last week, police detained a U.S. Marine in the alleged rape of a 14-year-old girl on Okinawa -- a case that has stirred outrage across Japan.
    It just keeps going on and on and nothing is ever done about it.

    Sounds like Wardchurchill's lies and his physical assaults on his wives.
    When given the choice between big business and big government, choose big business. Big business never threw millions of people into gas chambers, but big government did.

    1bad.

    do you work for the republican party or something?

    boulder dawg

    do you work for the democratic party or something?

    Do you guys realize that except for occasional interjections from others like myself, you have both been giving each other the old digital hand job for more than a year now?

    Where do you find the time to waste so much time on such meaningless drivel in of all places a kungfu forum!

    It's just weird. lol

    BD will NEVER see the world through your eyes 1bad and you cannot see the world through his.

    Why do you waste so much energy on each other. IN the end, you are both defeated by your own folly. Which is delicious for some of us who love to watch a good flaming nose dive on a daily basis, which both of you so adamantly supply!

    anyway, good job, keep it up and thanks for at least not polluting the main forum with your personal issues and strange belief systems.
    Kung Fu is good for you.

    Is it really any different than arguing about "what is real Kung Fu" or "Do you do that with an opened or closed fist?" In the grand scheme of things none of us are going to change anybody's mind here. This is for entertainment purposes only.

    You have over 13K post here. That why I was surprised about the "wasted time"?

    The US military are using women and children for target practice over there

    Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- The head of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, General Stanley McChrystal, expressed regret Monday after more than two dozen civilians were killed in a NATO airstrike.

    Twenty-seven civilians died and 14 others were wounded in the incident Sunday in the central Daikondi province, according to the Afghan Interior Ministry.

    Ground forces at the scene found women and children among the casualties, the Afghan government and NATO's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said in a joint statement.

    "I have made it clear to our forces that we are here to protect the Afghan people, and inadvertently killing or injuring civilians undermines their trust and confidence in our mission. We will re-double our efforts to regain that trust."

    In a statement published in Pashtun and Dari, the Afghan cabinet said it condemned "the repeated killing of civilians by NATO." An English version of the statement did not include that sentence.

    Civilian casualties at the hands of U.S. and NATO troops have strained relations between Afghanistan and the United States.

    In the last two weeks alone, more than 50 Afghan civilians are believed to have been killed in more than half a dozen U.S. and NATO military operations.

    The coalition is also investigating reports that several Afghan policemen were accidentally killed in an airstrike in eastern Afghanistan on February 18.

    McChrystal has made avoiding civilian casualties a top priority, and he has apologized to the Afghan government for recent incidents.

    Meanwhile, an influential Afghan tribal leader was among 14 people killed in a suicide attack on a meeting of tribal elders on Monday in Nangarhar province's Khogyani district, Afghan police said according to Agence France-Presse.

    Haji Zaman Ghamsharik was credited with bringing relative stability to Nangarhar compared to other provinces in Afghanistan's volatile eastern border region.
    Should these people not be charged with war crimes?

    BD, knock off the attacks on the soldiers. You stop, and I'll stop. You continue, and I'll continue.

    You are a liar and a fraud, and I am sick of you insulting my profession.

    Talk to Gene about that.

    The military is a political issue and in no way reflects personally on you or any other individual. Sorry but you can't, or should not be allowed to dictate comments about the US military simply because you feel differently.

    I get followed around the board and have to put up with reading personal attacks on a friend of mine that are made daily.....however I let that go because I know the guy is a public figure.

    because I am in the military, you moron. If you worked for Company X, and I said Company X was nothing but child rapists and murderers, then you are being personally attacked, because you are included. When are you going to get it through your thick skull that attacking a group someone is in instead of that person, you are still attacking that person? Are you that stupid?

    What a hypocritical titty-baby.

    He whines and cries to Gene about stopping all the name-calling, then says he should still be able to call names. He never ceases to amaze.
