So, if it's OK to shoot people who slap women because they don't wear a veil...
... is it OK to shoot people who slap women because they DO wear a veil?Some cry `Allah O Akbar` in the street. And some carry Allah in their heart.

The aim of a brawl is to win. Inflicting misery is incidental.I understand that. But my question is - do we want people who get a rise out of inflicting misery (the aim of a brawl)I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

Its ok to shoot people who are bearing arms against you(see laws of war). Its ok to FEEL GOOD about it cause they slap their women. Its NOT ok to shoot people just cause they slap their women, whether it feels good or not, and the General did not say that it was.Originally posted by Cruddy

Unless you are shooting at the guy because he is doing the battery at that moment and you want him to stop, I don't think that is ok to shoot at someone because they have slapped their women (you don't even know if that individual soldier has done so either).“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Just a lot of PC bull****. Guess what, some soldiers enjoy the rush of combat. I guess we should all get in our ergomobile and throw flowers at our enemies while reading ****ing sensitivity pamphlets.

The fact the Marine follows the rules of war. Toss me another softball question.
rules of war are just something designed to keep the rich countries in power and oppress poor countries who do not have the capability of supporting a conventional army.Comment

It's good to have a job that you enjoy. But when killing is what you enjoy... well, it's unfortunate that you can get a job that supports that passion.Originally posted by lord of the mark

isn't it good we have a constructive way for people to enjoy their killings such as military and police forces?
If we didnt they would be committing crimes and then take up our jail space.Comment

in history some of the worst bloodshed and attrocities have been commited on people by people they respectedOriginally posted by JimmyCracksCorn
Yes, taking enjoyment from the death of other humans is a sign of serious imbalances in one's world perspective.
What we have here (on poly and the Marines) are clearly people who have thoroughly dehumanized the people they're fighting against. And thats sad, no wonder the war has been going so poorly
What separates a Marine who likes to kill from a terrorist?
see native american interwarfare for the most recent example

And it's NOT ok to feel good about shooting people just cause they slap their women either.
Frankly, it's only a hop, skip, and jump from saying it feels good to shoot people for it, and saying it's ok to shoot people for it.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Well we disagree on that slippery slope, and I dont think theres any real empirical test for it. This guy didnt go shooting people who he didnt have the legal right to under the laws of war. We will never know if anyone else feels this way, now that this guys been "slapped" down.Originally posted by Imran Siddiqui
