Picture released by the U.S. Army Tuesday, May 3, 2005 shows a U.S. Army soldier comforting a child fatally wounded in a car bomb blast.

I'd be doing exactly the same thing, crying my eyes out.

That is some bleeding heart bullshit.

We'll see if that doesn't change the instant you hold your firstborn in your hands.

Children have no religion, no partisianship, no hatred, no nationality.

I understand your sentiment, H8, I do. Certainly not on the level that you feel it, but I do.

And someday I hope you'll be lucky enough to understand mine.

Horrible shit, but for some reason I am still seeing 4 of our brothers getting their charred bodies beat with lead pipes around this time last year in Fallujah...

Excellent photo....if I would have been there, it would have been me. And had I seen them beating my brothers charred remains...it would have been me being sent to jail for mass murder.

It's not until you have one of your own that you fully understand. Your time is coming H8! Pretty soon the H8train will be rollin into Martin Army to have your own. Trust us you'll see. Like the first night you bring the kid home from the hospital and you're afraid to sleep. Then ya get up at 0300hrs and put a small mirror near the babys face so you can tell its still breathing!
