strange sense of priorities

The fat asses in the Pentagon made sure Marine Sgt. Edward Deptola got what he deserved for the horrendous crime of pissing on a corpse in 2011. After a media lynching in which the dead terrorists SOB's were deemed "Taliban fighters", Sgt. Deptola was finally able to plead guilty and will most likely be reduced in rank. Meanwhile Major Hasan has yet to be tried for killing 13 of his own men in 2009. Maybe Sgt. Deptola should have grown a beard.

Sgt Deptola is a scout/sniper, a dangerous and stressful job in a hostile environment. Wouldn't you think the brass would have given him a break? If they treated members of the Military during WW2 the same way they do today half of them would probably spent time in the brig. The armchair heroes in the Pentagon who initiated the charges probably piss sitting down anyway.
