Knew you were a liberal hack from the beginning. Obama pardoned 1,927 individuals convicted of federal crimes. Largest ever. More commutations than the last 13 presidents combined. Included were terrorists who killed Americans. Liberal fagits.
Pardoning War Criminals On Memorial Day.
- Thread starter Pokeabear
- Start date
Obviously you have never served in the military.........I am not against pardons, I am against pardoning convicted war criminals. We have a strict set of laws that all US military personnel must follow, it is one of the major things that set our military apart from many other countries..........would you want a Police officer pardoned if he was convicted of murdering civilians?
And he has yet to pardon anyone. He has asked for info, but that hasn’t kept liberal media like NY Times, Washington Post, CNN, and MSNBC from attacking him.
I think President Trump is a disgrace to the office, but , to me I don't care who it is, the US should not pardon convicted war criminals, unless evidence comes to light which exonerates them.......
Well just like like pokeabear you have lapped up the prosecution talking points of this case and given nothing of the defense. There is plenty of evidence, hidden by the prosecution, that he did not murder a prisoner, who was an enemy combatant btw not an innocent kid, including a video.
You Trump haters will ruin lives and keep people in jail just to deny him any kind of success. It's disgusting.
Unless I mis read the article, his General Courts Martial has not occurred yet, I believe it is next week, and if there is evidence for his defense it will be presented, this is not a civilian court, the prosecution cannot "hide" evidence and he will be be judged by a panel of his peers, if the evidence exonerates him, he will be found innocent..........The 15 year old was a prisoner in the custody of the US Military, no matter what he did, he is afforded the same rights as all prisoners, there are laws which must be followed, they are intended, in part, to keep individual soldiers from exacting revenge from these prisoners..........BTW I just read your last line.....rightly convicting someone for murder is not trying to deny someone of success, murder is a crime, in the civilian world and the military
Murphy is a good follow for military insight, and his podcast (SOFREP) is a good listen. He’s definitely not a TDS guy.
I'd like to keep bad guys in jail and let good guys walk.
From everything I've seen on the Behenna story, there was enough to merit a pardon, and I have no issue with it. Good on Trump here.
Contrast that to the Gallagher case, where there has yet to be a trial, let alone a verdict. So why bother addressing a pardon for someone who (at the moment), is not in need of one? Red meat for the base? Seems irresponsible.
Could you please share your source? The existence of such evidence would greatly sway my position.
My primary source is interviews I've heard from Congressman Duncan Hunter who is the one pushing Trump for the pardon of Gallagher. I personally think he's a straight shooter and a big supporter of the military.
According to him this prosecution is FUBAR. I'll try to find some print articles on his accusations but the MSM ignores people like Duncan Hunter.

There is more than one side to this story and he will face a General Courts Martial which will sort each side out, if he is convicted there is no way he should be pardoned, a US military member cannot do stuff like that, if he is found innocent, he needs to be treated as innocent
This is common sense that we all knew as small children, but we abandoned it when we became adults and winning the internet became important.
I also condemn @Pokeabear and his left wing nut media for putting this out there. Glad we can agree on something wino.
Let wing nuts and right wing nuts both making a circus of this for PR purposes.
Why would POTUS be “considering” a pardon for someone who has yet to have his day in court? Oh right, PR circus.
Why are the pardons planned for Memorial Day? Isn’t the focus of Memorial Day supposed to be on those servicemen who have lost their lives? Couldn’t the pardons be issued on any other weekend?
To repeat: I’m all for pardoning good soldiers who got a raw deal. I’m against doing it as a PR stunt.
Uproar?
Well, it does seem that Rep. Crenshaw found it important enough to weigh in...
Yep, this forum is way more about trying to dunk on the “other side” than a sincere discussion based on facts.
Since you are so thirsty, I can get you a milkshake. His Trial was fascinating, though.
You realize you look foolish here don't you?
So much panic and anxiety in this thread...
A question for ya. How many war criminals were pardoned?
