I thank God that you don''t. My cousin went for two tours over there, when he got back the second time, his wife told him she had a new lover and that she wanted a divorce. What a hurful thing. And they have two small children 4 and 2. I am glad you wife stuck by you.

And I agree with you, I don''t believe in racism on any accord.

Well, I don''t load up anymore. I know when I went over there it hurt to see that look in my wife''s and kid''s eyes.

But, we''re talking about Louisiana. When I lived there, racism was alive and well. I didn''t leave none too soon. I don''t have any use for a racist.

Once again you didn''t read my other statements. I said to pray for a safe return of ALL of our solders. I don''t care if you are purple or green, you''re fighting what I believe is an unnecessary war, and I wish ALL a safe return.

LOL, you''re right. We haven''t met.

It really hurts to see the tears for the unknown when one of us loads up on that plane.

What does Jesse Jackson have to do with the issue?

I think that O.J. didn''t kill his wife and that he got a bad rap from it. But, that''s just my OPINION. He was foolish in choosing to run from the police though.

"Those who support the war don''''t have family members and friends on the frontline - atleast I haven''''t met one. I have family members who have done multiple tours over there - it''''t not pretty. One of my family members left this month to go to Iraq, as we should do for all of our solders - please pray for their safe return!

Admit it, you don''t know what you''re talking about.

I was only 20 years active duty, so I guess I don''t either.

Both here and the war, the general public only has the media''s version of the actual events.

Its not something that I can judge yes or no on.

Oil and control. I truly agree, and sorry that you had to go through that.

Imagine if this situation were reversed

What if it had been 6 cowardly white boys that jumped a black kid and beat the hell out of him,
and then thousands of white people walked the streets to support the 6 white boys ???

Would Jesse Jackson support that???
Yeah, right.

I think the state should intervene on this case and get it cleaned up over there. Not covered up.

What are you talking about? I never said anything about those things so don''t put words in my mouth. I just don''t see why hundreds of thousands of people have to stick there noses in it. They deserve to be punished both sides white and black. No one really knows what happened except the ones that were there.

jkflvsjdf002,

Well, in your last statement, I agree with you.

tccmartin,

I was a soldier, so I know what it means to have to take orders even when you may not agree with them. Our leaders should be more accountible than what they are. We should have no problem prosecuting a leader who takes his authority above its mandate.

War for oil is murder.

Of course nothing...Anyway, they both need to be punished, and not for the rest of there lives, I don''t want to see any of these kids freedom taken away over this. They both need equal punishment, plain and simple.

jkflvsjdf002 and Hwy71So,

You guys are hilarious. Now nobody can make an opinion in this case because we weren''t there and it didn''t happen to us. Yet, I''m sure that you KNOW that OJ killed his wife, Michael Jackson is a pedophile and Kobe raped that woman...because you were there in those cases.
