Urinating on the Taliban: Where Are They Now?

Justin Ropke is dead. He was an Afghanistan war vet who got addicted to heroin and—like pretty much everyone who enjoys that drug—he OD’d. I know of him because he was allegedly involved in the “urinating on the Taliban” incident from five years ago, and I think his death is a good example of how our disdain for the troops leads to their deaths.

People put on a show, but I find it hard to believe that these soldiers get the respect they deserve.

Another soldier involved in the incident, Sgt. Rob Richards, passed away in the summer of 2014 from painkillers. The only thing more stressful than dying for your country is your country chastising you for it, so after having your limbs blown off during your THIRD deployment to Afghanistan, you tend to prefer the synthetic endorphins of prescription painkillers (“love you mom”). A deeply disturbed war vet named Laura Buckingham was so infuriated by her ex’s custody rights, she decided to employ her war-vet boyfriend, sniper Joseph Chamblin, to help her kill him. He was one of the guys who pissed on the Taliban, so he has nothing to lose, right? He refused and was forced to turn his girlfriend in for attempted murder. I’d like to see any of these critics survive even a relatively minor tryst like this.

Men of honor are all around us.

military intelligence poison soldiers when they send them to the war,
all people know the US soldiers got LSD while in Vietnam, today it is the same,
therefore, soldiers have psycho problems.
in kosovo, they used bombs with uranium, so, of course, there is big % of tumors among local population and international soldiers (peace missions).
soldiers are just a piece of meat for those who profit from the war, they don't care for soldiers.

Great. I see you wandered out of the CT section. Can you do us all a favor and please keep your delusions to the section designed for them. We don't need your nonsense all over the site.
