US Soldier arrested for shooting and wounding (so far no dead) up to 16 Afghan civilians. Supposedly He walked off base and opened fire.
I'm sure people are jumping to conclusions without getting the whole story.
Hold onto yer butts indeed...
Get ready for protests and/or riots.

10x Civilian KIA.
Thats great, how many friendlys will die now for this. The pain of this action will tear thru the country. Though i do feel for the soldier, if he has as stated, had a breakdown. However, how much ass covering and backstabbing will be happening thru that servicemens unit right now. The Afghanis will want blood, and there will be a bill to be paid. I dont think that paying the families whatever the going rate will cut it this time.
wonderful...and the koran burning thing JUST stop being news. I can't wait until we are out of that nightmare of a country
Question is, how did a single soldier make it outside the wire without anyone stopping him?
RIP to the civilians.
Damn! Afghanistan just can't catch a freakin' break!
Rest in peace to the innocents, God's speed in getting to the bottom of this.
I somehow doubt this will spark the same kind of troubles like the Koran burnings ... but still, awful.
According to BBC women and children killed.
Rip.
