We're going to try it here, because I don't think red states necessarily have a corner on heroism.

We have all of these tremendous young people doing all these incredible things, and the story's not getting told.

It became clear very quickly that they were doing things that they were not supposed to be doing. If these charges are sustained in court, it will be tremendously disappointing that some of our better Marines would be involved.

Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism -how passionately I hate them!
