Most of your say villian.    80% of the american public say hero.   He was brought up the US millitary for dismissal, but because of public pressure, the case was dismissed.


You're hyperventilating again, Larry, and your imagination is running away. The truth is that the sergeant was neither a villain nor a hero, but a soldier, doing what he thought would work.

That he saved American lives is praiseworthy.

As to "most of you say villain" I think you are buying in to the demonization of American liberalism from radical reactionaries like Rush. I don't think that sergeant was a villain. Why should he be called a villain for using force in a violent (if unnecessary) situation?

The real villains are not usually found in the ranks, who have little choice. It is in the ranks of their leaders, in particular thier Commander in Chief, who is a bogus eejit, and his entourage, who prefer to keep him that way.
