<< pyonir,

As soon as I saw your handle, I knew there'd be a "but" in your post. Why not just be grateful that there are MEN like him willing to fight to protect the freedoms of little whiny couch potatoes who haven't the stones to protect themselves.

nope not gonna let it die. how was i whining? i brought up a point. that hardly constitutes whining. "stones to protect themselves"? i protect myself everyday...but i couldn't do what those soliders are doing for me over there and i guess by your definition every person that doesn't serve in the military doesn't have the stones to protect themselves or is a whiny couch potato.

<< In today's military, that guy could weasily, and very legitimately, avoided doing what he did. He would not have been a coward if he had pulled back, or done any number of maneuvers. There would have been increased risk to his men, but he would probably have been considered OK in not doing what he did. >>


I'm not sure what you mean by "in today's military". Care to explain? I hope you're not implying that is somehow OK not to engage and destroy the enemy. If you are, you're mistaken.
 
He was a captain. He could have just as easily told one of his grunts to do it too but he lead by example. Good for him.

I hope someone said MUH-MUH-MUH-MONSTER KILL! over the radio

LOL! Someone here plays too much UT! Well.... make that two people.
 


<< how was i whining? >>



Oh but, pyonir, I didn't say you were a whiny couch potato. Re-read the post. You just assumed I meant you. I could have been referring to generic whiny couch potatoes.

WHOO HOOOO!!! Way to go U.S.




<< I hope someone said MUH-MUH-MUH-MONSTER KILL! over the radio >>



YES!!!! That is just excatly my thoughts

😀😀😀😀😀
 
He's from Jersey. You might call us crazy, but when you drive through and think "Jersey drivers are nuts" realize now that there's a method to the madness. We know EXACTLY what we're doing. Just like this guy did. Nice work.

by putting my handle first, that would mean the post was directed at me. wouldn't i be correct to assume that everything in that post was directed at me? i think it is fair to say so. "generic"? so does that make me authentic!? YAY FOR ME!

<< pyonir, you ignorant slut. Am I going to have to find another target? >>


so maybe i posted to quickly without thinking it through all the way. sorry Russ. i made a mistake. i didn't think clear headed for five minutes. that makes me ignorant? if you say so. you don't have to find another one. i don't mind being the target of your incessant slams. "Like water off a duck's back"

If I can add something - sooner or later everyone on AT gets "Russed up". That and "Red-ended". 🙂 Don't take it personally. 😀

Its part of nature, and beautiful in its own way... like mankind clubbing baby seals. 😉

<< after a little bit of a realization from some of you (rather than misdirected insults that had nothing to do with anything) i see all your points. WTH, give the guy the medal. afterall, in todays warfare he DOES deserve it. Optimus you post totally made sense...thanks. >>



OMG, I cant believe it, someone actually changing their opinion due to someone elses point on ATOT?!?!? It cant be!!! Someone check the tempurature in hell!!
 


<< I hope someone said MUH-MUH-MUH-MONSTER KILL! over the radio >>


OMG, that just tore me up!!! AHAHAHAHAH 😀
 


<< And before the tree-hugging AlQuida lovers come in here with the usual drivel, they blew these guys up because they were firing mortars at them , not because of the taunts. >>


What does tree-hugging have to do with loving Al Qaida? What kind of a moron are you? If you're going to generalize liberals, make some sense.

<--- happy to see us kicking some arse...

I consider myself very pro-environment. But I relaize that there are some very wacky extreemists on the environmentalist side. There are extreemists on just about everything.

I call the real nuts "Tree-huggers", just as I call extreemist Christians "Bible-Thumbers" (I am Christian, BTW), extreemist Liberals "Pinko Commies", Extreemist Conservatives "Redneck Hard-Heads", etc.

It has been my experience that almost invariably, and ESPECIALLY on AT, the anti-U.S., anti-war folks are also environmental extreemists... Tree-Huggers.

I was not labelling anyone who cares about the environment, as that would label myself along with you.

I could have added "Anti-U.S." in there, but that seemed redundant.

Good to hear it. I too am a Christian and pro-environment and pro-kill-every-alqaeda-wacko-we-can-find... Just thought for a sec you were one of those conservatives making blanket statements...
 


<< Why must the death of four people be glamourized? >>



i agree. sometimes you guys make me sick..did you stop and think for a second that the men who died could of been someone's husband, father, son, brother, etcetera. regardless, of who did what to who..death is not something to jeer about. just be fortunate we can sit behind our computers.
