Media has it's good and bad. And when I saw this in the news, I felt bad for the Marine because I knew he would be investigated for it. He killed the insurgent, but this man would have killed him and even you. They don't care. I did notice the camera turning away from the shot that went off. I'm sure you didn't know this was going to happen. But you should have just trashed that video afterwards to spare this Marine. The thing is, by filming these types of things, you are hurting our soliders. I do appreciate reading your blogs and seeing the photos you posted, as I will continue to read on because I do care about this war. But these people are horrible. (the insurgents) If we shot all of them, whether armed or not, we would have done well. Our soliders are doing their job. To protect and bring order in Iraq. I could care less about the insurgent. But I do care about that Marine, although I do not know him. I just do. I wish him well.

GOD BLESS OUR SOLIDERS!

Good on you Kevin for keeping the media transparent. Don't worry about all those redneck morons, ah hic, ah, heckling you. Half of them can't even spell correctly. It's important that both sides of this war are held accountable for their actions, especially the invading side, whose job is to show just reason for their actions, which so far they haven't. All the U.S forces have done so far is stir up the hatred towards the 'coalition of the willing' & hence, the western world. I guess America will pay for their actions soon enough, but until then, keep hollering you ole hoochie rednecks, if you can read this, that is. Don't get all huffed up now ye hear?
