US Soldier kills Afghan civilians
Forums › General Discussion › US Soldier kills Afghan civilians-
Anybody heard about the Army Staff Sergeant who left his base in southern Afghanistan and went into civilians homes killing 16 people? 9 of them were children. As a service member and a veteran this infuriates me. IMO he should get the death penalty for this. Is that too harsh?

The fuck

Sounds like nobody cares...

Although I'm not a vet, I agree,I think that he should be executed. I mean what kind of human would kill an innocent civilian, even I they are on the opposing side. Besides, isn't he suppose to be fighting for their freedom?

I thought it was 17. It's disturbing

Sounds awful. It sets back all the good work and sacrifices made so far. 😢

We're over there fighting an enemy that blends with the civilian population.
Conduct an investigation an try him if necessary but we cannot convict him without gathering all the facts.
And, sometimes war changes a man. Perhaps this soldier has lost it mentally.

I think it's more than upsetting the locals but what if he did that in the US? Especially since so many were kids. It's not like he was out on patrol, he left his base and went into the village alone.

All life is precious. Two wrongs don't make a right.It sounds like the soldier snapped and will have to face severe consequences. And I think it's a shame it detracts from the service of our brave men and women.

What about self defense? What if someone raped and murdered your wife and two daughters? Killing is not to be taken lightly but IMO can be justified.

Yeah, this guy is a disgrace to the Army and only puts more US soldiers,Marines, and airmen in danger because of retaliatory strikes that are bound to happen.
Sucks too because I'll be there in a few months, I might catch a bullet in the back by a Afghan soldier/cop because of this guy.

I don't think it's a matter of no one deserves to die. I think some people don't deserve to live. I'm not cold blooded I just love my family.

Soldier opens a door to a village house, fired appon from within from a concealed position hitting and wounding a team mate, grenade goes in killing those in side, two civilians woman and child as well as the two armed Taliban fighters. Not nice but cut and dry you would think. No the soldier after returning home is now facing criminal proceedings....... War is not nice I know first hand but if you hide behind someone that someone may get hurt. Don't blame the soldier blame the people that caused us to be there in the first place, those that think it's ok for a girl of 7 to be sold as a slave or women not aloud to read and write and it's there fault if they are raped. These are the ones to blame not the men sent to solve the problem.

If it were just me it would be a different story. I would never want to take a life but when it comes to my family there's no room for error. I don't think not wanting to kill him makes you a pussy at all, just human.

Prison for life.

Just putting this out there but it costs more for America to execute a person than to lock them up forever.
And the death penalty isn't much of a punishment. It's more like an escape to real punishment because he doesn't get to suffer. You lock him up for life and he'll wake up everyday thinking about wht he did and it will drive him mad eventually. You kill him and he doesn't have to think about wht he did ever again.
