Our old friend Tahmooressi got busted again
Busted for weed in Indiana. His second arrest since getting out of Mexican prison for gun running. This is the story that keeps on giving.

I just saw the video clip of Greta's comment on this. She was honest enough to mention his DUI arrest last year and she expressed the opinion that
Tahmooressi is going to be in and out of trouble until something really bad happens. This is the first time I've agreed with her about this case. If
you take away all the political spin, this is a guy who served his country and needs some help that he's clearly not getting. I do wonder why he
hasn't gotten any help since he got out of Mexico.
Here's Greta's commentary. http://video.foxnews.com/v/4841523835001/greta-sad-news-abou...

More proof that the marines have lowered their bar and now accept any loser with a pulse.
Why do all the veteran criminals get to blame their misdeeds on ptsd and get a free pass from the hoo rah fan boys?

I did never do combat time (i hate wars) - however, I have been working with soldiers for 25+ years as an instructor (I still hate wars, but I saw it
as my obligation to help soldiers survive)

Hard to find fault when an individual isn't himself or herself, due to trauma, which has been diagnosed clinically ....

Give the guy some slack ... Hope he gets better and/or survives

Arrested for having some "weed" on him? What a joke.
Lives are negatively affected by our stupid drug laws.
Ya know what they used to do to soldiers with PTSD? Call them cowards, blindfold them and put them to death. (WWI) We didn't understand the
disorder.
We don't understand marijuana, and we continue to ruin people's lives by arresting them for having weed on them.
Does this get me out of the COOP?

The "poor chumps" that participate are actually the poor that have few other economic choices, or the brainwashed that have bought into the patriotic
pablum dished out by the formerly brainwashed, and the 1% who certainly don't allow their children to participate.
war and preparing for war is a racket controlled by corporate America. Corporations lobby for increasing the war machine, and they are the war
machine.

You sound like your panties are in a bunch over my question. My point is, I gave at the office too.... my credential.....
It hits me deep to the core when Armchair Generals have all the blab about something they know NOTHING about..... even 25 years of non-combatant
training, because until you actually DO hunt the most dangerous game in the world, and it tries to kill you, you don't know squat. Too bad all that
play-like didn't do him any good, or another several million GI's with night sweats and self-medication problems because there really is no cure. We
(I) fought for their (your) right to say most anything you please freely in this Country, including the right to burn the flag as well as fly it.
Don't thank me for my service either; it's an embarrassment. However even knowing the gig was a bad one, I still served out of DUTY. If that makes
me a chump, oh well.
War is hell..... ask the man who fought one. Let's hope Tamorhoozits doesn't take anyone else with him. He's bound to go to heaven because he's
living his own hell right now. Let him be.

Just pointing out that he wrote a blabla book.
As for getting busted for pot...
Why would he be busted for something that was legal (albeit with restrictions) when he was alive?

Other than the fact that you are a dumb chit, why would you bring up Smedly Butler?
