    do you know all the facts? Thats a bold claim. I dont think anyone in the world would make such a claim.

    But seriously, tell me how we are attacking everyone in site, murdering innocent kids, etc.

    eh...what the hell. I'm gone for an hour and 100 replies show up. I fucking rock:H



    For the record, I did not paint all the troops with this brush. This was inspired about a story I heard on Democracy Now! where a soldier was ordered to kill two unarmed Iraqis and he kept their dog tags. When he came home on leave he hung himself and was found by his dad.

    Whoever said this lacked emotion or something, thank you. I haven't written anything in months really, so I'm pretty much starting over again and have forgotten a great many things.

    might want to check again. I called it tasteless and disgusting and was attacked for that, then it blew up into this.


    Here, i'll say it again.

    Your poem is tasteless and disgusting. Here is a tip, try removing the word "the" from your phrase "The American Soldier." If you didnt know, "the" is a definite article and would denote you mean all.

    I am glad that you mean it towards only 2(do you have the link to that anyways?), however, your poem, intentionally i believe, sounds if it is a portrayal of all american troops. That is completely unfair and wrong.

    I would be attacked if i was inspired by a muslim terrorist and wrote "the Muslim Man" poem.

    look this has gone on long enough.

    He has every right to write anything he wants. I have every right to call his poem tasteless.

    We can leave it at that.
