Sorry, I don't have any idea what's going on here. Someone give me a link. I was an MP in the Army for three years. I wrote up a lot of reports with "subject slipped and fell on wet pavement coming into the station". And I never had to worry about anybody I worked with or for checking the weather reports for rain either. But no one ever fell down unless they were resisting. In three years, I don't recall ever dukeing it out with anybody. If somone took a swing at me, they got the stick. And it usually didn't take more than one whack and they were ready to put on the cuffs. If the puke had a weapon - any weapon - I unholstered the .45 and locked and loaded. That was usually enough. However, as a rookie (first week on the job) I did discharge it into the ceiling of a bar in the midst of a riot. You could have heard a pin drop immediately - if anybody could have heard anything! Some kind of bang, I'll tell ya! Some of the other MPs would beat on gay guys, minorities, drunks, etc. (and once an epileptic civilian having a seizure!) but I wouldn't cover their butt, and they knew it if they were riding with me. There is a line. Perhaps these SEALs crossed it. I don't know. That bunch of jackass MPs over in Iraq a few years ago who horsed around with their prisoners went WAY over the line. That was shameful. They should have been given jail sentences themselves. Those morons couldn't have been regular Army!

With the ease that people can be accused of misconduct with terrorists, and the circus that justice has become trying them, I wonder sometimes why they bother to risk their own lives capturing some of these at all.

The guys a terrorist, and people are coming down on the troops because he got a fat lip? Powers that be know what trouble I would have gotten into alone with him.

I have a feeling they will be prounounced guilty and receive a very lenient sentence. It is b.s but just looking at laws of landwarfare and the evidence against them is why I say this. If I were to be in a similar situation I would think it may be easier to allow the iraqi/Afgan. Army to "watch" the detainee for a few minutes for me. The only problem is sometimes they may fall while I am not there but I don't know I had to leave for a second. Or something along those lines.

I do hope the publci support for them helps the case, guys work to hard for such b.s from their own country

OK I WROTE THE GOVENOR OF VIRGINIA ON HIS WEBSITE. AND SAVED MY MESSAGE AND WILL SEND IT EVERY DAY TILL I GET A RESPONCE.....GLASSMAN73

That is "BS" They get arrested for protecting me and my family? I can't take it anymore, Obama is protecting terrorists over the country he swore to protect! He and his whole party are socialists taking all of the power away from the people and giving it to our enemies.

Third on the BioGuy support. Shoot to kill. They don't play fair like a bunch of chicken sh*ts and we're supposed to keep them in bubble wrap until they get to the proper hold. Unbelievable.

O.H., those guys (and GAL) where in the West Virginia National Guard, he was supposedly a CAT IV, as was her boy friend ( EX Military will know what a CAT IV is. These guys are elite troopers/Sailors hopefully the reviewing officer will see this for what it is.

Like many C. O.'s said in Nam V.C suspects are alive. ..Confirmed V.C. are dead, don't bring me any "suspects" we cant feed em or guard em out here.

Clay I agree on that!!I would never work in Law Enforcement either.

I know enough about this story to know the 4 Seals are innocent.

"O'they hurt me" is in their play book!

The SOB should be glad he is still alive, even after being handed over to the locals for a brief time.

The phrase of "Take no prisoners!" is comes to mind! And I can start seeing it happening soon!

BS. They broke regs and were offered non-judicial punishment. THEY chose to take it to court-martial. They need a jail cell to teach them about good order and discipline.
