Yeah, don't you just hate that? I hate that too! I hate it when people take one morsel of information and blow it out of proportion. Makes my skin crawl! It would appear the little rolleyes icon totally slipped by you. Maybe I should have used this one

instead? If I had said "SOME of them get off on sexually abusing and humiliating prisoners" would you have felt better? It'd be more accurate, I suppose.
I do give the Boys and Girls the respect they deserve when they deserve it. I have plenty of military in my family so I'm huzzahing for them and their companies left and right. Respect is given where respect is due and frankly, it's not due for all of them. Wouldn't wanna be in their place, of course, but that's a different can o' beans.
