These people who just issue cheap shots should be kicked out because it is not good for the forum, cyber, cannon, aragon and these others. People don't come to be abused, in the meantime, they will be ignored. They are chasing potential new members away.

I'm going to be as gentle as I can with this, Tom.

Stick it.  You'll be getting whatever shots I like now.

I was there and never witnessed anything remotely like fragging occur but that does not at all mean it never occurred.

Indeed.  The stats show around 1,000 known or suspected incidents.

You were the one complaining when I replace Rose McGowan with Paris. Now you are complaining about me replacing Paris?

I don't even recognize the boy you have up there now.

Me neither.  Even after I found out who it is using tineye, I had to ask, "Who?"  @Frank Cannon's standards are really slipping badly.  I think it will pick up, it's almost the first of the month and his slum tenants should be kicking in their Section Eight pretty soon now.

I was there and never witnessed anything remotely like fragging occur but that does not at all mean it never occurred.  I'm sure it did and I'm also sure that at least some of those who were on the receiving end richly deserved it.

I did not personally witness the incident but was nearby when a young 2nd lieutenant somehow managed to shoot himsef in the AZZ with an M16.
In Germany 1970 an Army LT1 (who was allegedly undercover CID for Criminal Investigation Division) was walking to his car when a single 45 cal. shot was fired at him, striking the window.

There were several 45 cal. pistols stolen from a company armory, days before. Suspicion was high it was black radicals in the ranks.

There were concerns over race relations. Black Panthers back home, etc.

Not exactly fragging, but very similar. He was not hurt. I never found out the outcome, since I returned to civilian life of family, work and college.

During the 2nd Gulf was a muslim SGT was court martialed for placing a grenade in the tent of his superior. He was Hasan Karim Akbar" a convert from Watts, Calif.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
The article also quotes Moore's book and it quotes a Viet Nam veteran. So, people's true colors apparently show through.
Actually, I think it germane because it gives a peek into the character of a man who will go by the rules, come hell or high water.

No wonder the Dems and the GOPe don't want a guy like that on Capitol Hill.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
