and a grunt can't afford to wonder whether his actions, no matter how necessary, will be second guessed, and that is the position many in the military are in today. and these ridiculous charges only make that worse. If, as some are reporting, this happened when the guy was already in custody, though, your statement doesn't apply. nonsense. Who knows what the circumstances were. Now there I can agree--far different than the calls to action others are spouting. And far different than you, who a post ago called them "these ridiculous charges" with no knowledge of the circumstances. There are no circumstances that would make these charges anything but ridiculous. You're including the charge of making false statements in that? That's a pretty serious breach of military discipline. Not ridiculous at all.
