The Guy in the RAPE CONFESSION tape, .. no words ..
I believe it is a cover up in the sense that these guys deserve to be publicly humiliated, and yet the majority wont be heard of because the government wants support for their war.
how can you posibbly condone stomping and throwing of dogs? or gangrape?
As for news being reserved only for big stories....yesterday there was a story of a dog who came back home after 5 years, the day before; about how children sometimes hyperventilate for a cheap high.
Raping a girl 10 times , then the shame of it causes her to hang herself??
And the sick POS laughs about it??
Your right , no story there.

No there isn’t, not when the only evidence of this is a grainy you tube video of someone bragging in a garage. You can’t base a news story on something so unsubstantiated; you would end up swimming in these stories with the amount of bull that people make up. If it is investigated (have you forwarded the link to anyone?) and something happens then I have no doubt that it will be reported.

They may be sickening but in the grand scheme of things the majority don’t stand out, the first one is a run of the mill animal cruelty case except with a smoke round instead of a baseball bat or what have you; the second is a bit of a badly judged joke; the third was all over the news for several weeks I have no idea how you missed that; the fourth and fifth are, again, just standard animal cruelty cases as can be found on civvy street; the sixth is just a random person in a garage who could very well be making up stories (you can’t report on something so unsubstantiated); the seventh is again standard animal cruelty fare and the eighth I can’t open so I can’t comment on.
Of all of those links (except the last) just one is newsworthy and was reported on extensively with, IIRC, the soldiers being brought to justice.

Show me where I condoned it and I’ll tell you.

And that’s your national news?
Of course there are often “and finally” news stories but these are generally put in for a feel good factor. Naturally the media don’t put “soldier smashes puppy's skull in” in this slot.
The sad fact of the matter is that most of what you have posted happens all the time outside of the military and war zones and generally goes unreported there as well.
The serious cases usually do get quite good coverage, at least in the media I see.

how and why do people even bother to justify these kind of cruelty. it's ok to be patriotic, but you have to realize at one point, things have gone too far.
