        Platner said he killed the people trying to free people who were being tortured.

        I’m going to report you for using the word “interrogates” instead of “tortures” though.

        I feel like you weren’t super thorough because you don’t want to acknowledge the war crimes committed by Platner. Idk why that is, but more often than not, its because of vote blue no matter who.

        Personally, I hope he gets shot in the face during a rally or something

          I care less that he did those warcrimes, and more so that he atones for them and does positive things. Or he can get shot I don’t really care, either works for me.

        Platner went to the United States Marine Corps School of Infantry and deployed to Iraq in 2005. “It was a relatively calm deployment for the first few months, mostly because the Battle of Fallujah just happened, and much of the insurgent activity in the area had been crushed in that fight,” he told me. Later, while he was on patrol at Abu Ghraib, there was an attack on the prison.
