Saw THIS on Maher's show last night. Why would the military tolerate these few, VERY FEW, bad soldiers?
The one I found particularly disturbing was the woman who was raped and was then charged with adultery (which is punishable in the military; up to a year in prison and a dishonorable discharge) because even though she wasn't married, the guy who raped her was.
female service members crying wolf is also a big problem in the military. There should be a documentary on that to.
NPR actually reported on this back in 2009: Two other recent stories about the military: Suicide Rate In Military At Highest Level In Ten Years ‘America’s last prisoner of war’
I dunno. . . .it is a morale issue more than a moral one. I remember watching JarHEad . .. when the guy found out his wife was cheating back home. Nothing they can do about a civilian *****ing up morale but they can do something about it in their own units. You want your soldiers in their best mental shape as well in the battle field keep their heads in the game . . so to speak. sex and things like that can complicate things . . . I can see them having an interest in restricting it. . . Rocket River
I dunno why they would tolerate such people Again. The soldiers should feel safe within their units without having to worry if the FELLOW SOLDIER next to them is going to jump their bones forcefully. criminals that hide behind power [either money, military, privilege, etc] are the most cowardous of all Rocket River
