Reading comprehension fail?

From the news stories, quoting the leaked video testimony of his squad?

Special Operator First Class Corey Scott said: "You could tell he was perfectly OK with killing anybody that was moving."

Can you show me the link to see in what context he was saying that?
If your up against fighters then that statement would be right.

In a lengthy criminal investigation report, the navy detectives laid out other allegations against Gallagher, including shooting a schoolgirl and elderly man from a sniper’s roost. Members of Alpha Platoon’s Seal Team 7 alarmed by their leader’s conduct said they were initially shut down by military chiefs when they first spoke up, and told their own careers would suffer if they continued to talk about it.

I'm pretty sure you have read the articles. You are intentionally being difficult.

Looks the word of one person has trumped the word of his platoon. It's obvious that things like this embarrass and jeopardise senior leader's jobs. So they like to pretend it didn't happen.

It was only because a key witness at the last second completely changed their testimony under very suspicious circumstances that the entire case fell over (not just the dead body part).

There's a link in my quote.

Also have you not heard of google. If you want to live in ignorance, then go ahead.

Not sure why you need to be spoonfed this. My quote is from an earlier link btw. I'd have thought you'd have informed yourself before posting by at least reading prior articles and posts.

He's been pardoned. Sounds like he's a serial killer though, killing teenagers who pose no threat, sniping young girls and her father for kicks. Can't prove this however, it doesn't sound made up.

Trump has big problem with any authority, I put it down to his time at military school, sounds like he got a hard time.

Here since you are gonna claim you can't be bothered.

@deuse

Gallagher claiming his team are cowards who are lying. I know who I believe, because either he is lying or his entire team is lying.

Gallagher maintains the allegations against him are a fabrication by platoon members who could not match his own high standards and who were intent on ousting him.

“My first reaction to seeing the videos was surprise and disgust that they would make up blatant lies about me, but I quickly realized that they were scared that the truth would come out of how cowardly they acted on deployment,” Gallagher said in a statement to the Times issued by his lawyer Timothy Parlatore.

“I felt sorry for them that they thought it necessary to smear my name.”

Trump then proceeds to glorify this guy against the wishes of the military leaders (actually fired the Navy Secretary) who could see this guy for what he is.

edit: why is some of the text in this post black? I've got no formatting anywhere in the post :confused:

Highlight the text (make sure you're in advanced) and click the Tx icon to remove formatting. Colour formatting doesn't have any visible tags on the new forum, but also the "none" colour option doesn't work so if text colour is changed from default it cannot be reset without removing the formatting.

So everyone else must be wrong. Nice philosophy. Ofc there couldn't be another source for the same information you could search for?

Maybe you shouldn't post in threads in topics you know nothing about.

You post in a lot of political threads, at least people will now see all your posts in context. You don't actually bother to read all the information available. Even when presented multiple times by different people in this very thread.
