There is no official j/j/e at this moment, the time to think about the consequences of your actions is not post-action::

The law Must be defined emphatically if previous efforts have failed: Making friends NO, sending a clear message YES. Just like anything new the growing pains are the worse::

Glad to see you are worried about a "yugo" and some firewood taking abuse , how about all the young people and innocent people dying on the public roads because you wannabe drag-racers in your Mitsuhondys can't grow up and either take it to the strip or park it in Moms garage when you get a blast of pubescent testosterone!

How did you go from the war to a cause like that? :confused: Two different things and on the latter cause, you can't judge the a whole crowd on the actions of a few. :nono: Your argument sucks. :shrug:

I hope that video was also just the "actions of a few" and not the norm. Hate to think that is how we handle things over there.

Going gone-Grab some coffee and try that post again.

I gotta side with penguinfan on this one......

and people here don't understand all the "yankee go home" mentality over there.....

or why our troops over there are getting picked off every now and then by sniper fire.....

or why certain factions on the planet want to bring terrorism or destruction to U.S. soil.....

If that tank incident would have happened on U.S. soil he'd have sued merely on his denial of right to due process and won.....

I doubt this scene would have happened in Russia when they were at the peak of thier military prime......that U.S. tank crew wouldn't have time for crap like that......they'd have been fighting thier ass off just to stay alive....

Let me simplify it for you Pengy, Strange is ripping our troops about their actions, I say if you can't follow the LAW you get the consequences which sometimes are HARSH!

Now that Strange has used his right to an opinion I'll use mine also, another innocent person was killed again here( a mother with 2 children) by these PUNKS dragracing around just like the streetracing Crap he post on here all the time.
Point being, take a look at what you condone before you RIP on somebody in a far more complex situation.

Another Folgers Please!

GG,

I am all for the war, I just came across this video and thought it would interest some of you. BUT, like Penguinfan said, I hope it's the actions of a few. I'm not ripping the US troops as I support what they're doing.

By the way, I'll see if I can get a link to support what I'm about to say, but a poster (at another forum) did mention that those US troops in the video were sent home as a result of their actions.

DR.
I agree it was over the top but the situation they are in is over the top, complex and where to draw the line of enforcement is tough, we don't know if they have been "easy" on looters and it just had no effect and they went beyond the scope to make their point .
As far as the car thing goes I had a brother in law killed by this streetracing garbage a year ago and it hits a nerve, they are racing in the afternoon during commuting time, that mother was killed at 4pm and BiLaw at 2pm:mad: I've almost been hit twice with my daughter in the car, if they ever hurt my daughter it will be judge -jury-executioner on the Spot! That is my Car racing rant.
You obviously can promote whatever you want but all these little mitsuhondys streetracers are killing innocent people.

most of these ricers are young punks who don't think of the consequences. Up here in Toronto there is a huge "Rice" following and most of the drivers are high school students. Stupidity at its best.

S. CAL.
these people who had there car destroyed were LOOTING.
they could have been shot. instead they learned a valuable lesson. just because saddam isn't there they want to take advantage of the situation.
no sympathy from me.

Chit we should just pulled out and let them have at it. 1/3 the country hates the other 2/3rds. That 2/3rds hates another 1/3rd. Then you have the Kurds that hate all the others. Thats how A guy like Saddam got the power he did to start with. It will happen again unless we stay about 5 years in some role or another. We just can't seem to learn that 1/4 of this world really does not give a chit what we think.

djv.....I agree with you on the hate thing over there.....It didn't work over in Bosnia and it damn well won't work in Iraq......

too many factions and not enough "live and let live"......

getting all those people over there to live together would be like trying to get all the gangs in the U.S. to get along.....

anyone who'd want to be president over there has to have a deathwish....
