This guy is just...wow

http://www.afa.net/Blogs/BlogPost.aspx?id=2147500421

Quote:
The Medal of Honor will be awarded this afternoon to Army Staff Sgt. Salvatore Giunta for his heroism in Afghanistan, and deservedly so. He took a bullet in his protective vest as he pulled one soldier to safety, and then rescued the sergeant who was walking point and had been taken captive by two Taliban, whom Sgt. Giunta shot to free his comrade-in-arms.

This is just the eighth Medal of Honor awarded during our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Sgt. Giunta is the only one who lived long enough to receive his medal in person.

But I have noticed a disturbing trend in the awarding of these medals, which few others seem to have recognized.

We have feminized the Medal of Honor.


Quote:
So the question is this: when are we going to start awarding the Medal of Honor once again for soldiers who kill people and break things so our families can sleep safely at night?


Quote:
Jesus, in words often cited in ceremonies such as the one which will take place this afternoon, said, “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lays down his life for his friends” (John 15:13). So it is entirely right that we honor this kind of bravery and self-sacrifice, which is surely an imitation of the Lord of lords and King of kings.

However, Jesus’ act of self-sacrifice would ultimately have been meaningless - yes, meaningless - if he had not inflicted a mortal wound on the enemy while giving up his own life.


Holy freaking Jesus on a pogo stick. :o This guy is so brainwashed and so extremist that he actually think saying this shit is anything other than disgusting? Not to mention the whole 'aren't they supposed to be Christians?' angle. Talking about the importance of killing people and destroying things, talking about 'enemies' of all sorts, about 'cosmic battles between good and evil'...fucking hell. How is this even remotely Christian anymore? These guys are as bad as fucking muslim fundamentalists. And apparently this isn't some completely marginal group either, given its profile. LOL it even has Chuck Norris as a columnist!. Awesome. But still, wow? This is almost as fucked up as that group that picketed funerals of dead soldiers saying that God willed their death. :/

lol... ummm... yea. Medals of honor for... killing people? That's never been what the medal of honor was about. It's about going way, way, way above the call of duty and risking life and limb for... whatever. Sometimes it's for completing the mission, quite often more it's for saving the lives of fellow soldiers. Like the guy in Korea that rolled onto a hand grenade to save his fellows... then rolled onto a second hand grenade.

Regardless, whoever the columnist is, they're an obvious idiot. As for Chuck Norris, he's a bit crazy with the whole Christian thing.

From his column it's pretty clear he's been watching too many Rambo movies

Quote:
When we think of heroism in battle, we used the think of our boys storming the beaches of Normandy under withering fire, climbing the cliffs of Pointe do Hoc while enemy soldiers fired straight down on them, and tossing grenades into pill boxes to take out gun emplacements.


Yeah...cause you were there. :roll:

He rushed it too much, one more step and a right foot would have saved him that terrible embarassement.

He's just shit. Kind of like your average England player, but surprisingly worse.

Palin refers to North Korea as allies twice in the same interview before being corrected. :roll:

Tea Party idiocy ahoy!
