Human Shield!

American soldier human shield.jpg

Obviously the gunfire is coming from the photographer's direction, and the soldier is cowering behind the innocent child.

It's the only logical explanation.

I beat you to it, Harvey. I stole it from someone who stole if from...gateway?
What the hell, it's public property now. That's exactly what I hope my kid would have the presence of mind to do.

I love our servicemen.

Obviously the kid broke Fred Thompson's front window and the kid knows that Mr. Thompson has too much respect for the military to hurt the solder to get to the child.

LOL @ DoubleU

Its obvious that the soldier is too scared to respond, so the little boy is pushing into action. Too bad our soldiers cannot be more like that brave young boy.

#5 - Posted by: Humble Servant on June 3, 2007 07:45 PM

Amazingly with the "evil" American Military presence in the middle east, THAT kid knew who would protect him. Utter brilliance. I bet he wouldn't be so confident about hiding behind a "peace loving" hippy.

#6 - Posted by: shimauma on June 3, 2007 08:40 PM

Our troops needed larger kids to hide behind. Where are the fatties?

#7 - Posted by: Frank J. on June 3, 2007 09:41 PM

Just like the evil military machine... provoking the misunderstood, valiant freedom fighters to fire indiscriminately into a crowd filled with women and children.

#8 - Posted by: rusty shackleford on June 3, 2007 10:23 PM

Little bastard probably made off with the GI's M9 sidearm. Kill 'em all...

On another note, when these toe-sniffers go to the mosque and kick off their sandals, how do they know whose are whose? Don't they get all mixed up?

#9 - Posted by: bunkerboy on June 4, 2007 02:48 AM

Our soldiers are obviously too stoopid to know which direction to shoot. This little feller is just helping to point one of our many moron (thanks John Kerry) soldiers to the fight. It's too bad that this guy wasn't smart enough to stay in school...

It's probably not a great idea to hide behind the bullet magnet, even if he is wearing force protective body armor.

Oh, also, in response to the comment by ussjimmycarter, I'm guessing the reason he's not shooting is because he's not trained to fire into a crowd of unarmed civilians.

See, he has a few little things going for him, like loyalty, duty, respect, self-less service, honor, integrity, and personal courage. This makes him one of the best soldiers on this planet (and probably a lot of others). If you don't believe me, check out how many men we've lost compared to Iraqi military death tolls.

As for his intelligence, he's smart enough to have joined the Army and not the Marines.

Hooah!

Damn straight Damien, plus... it's just not sporting without a handicap, that's why he has the kid with him, to reduce mobility.

#13 - Posted by: Trigger on June 4, 2007 12:11 PM

you suck i love all of our military men and women i like to see you over there on the front line

Chill, guy. It's called reverse snarkasm. They are mocking people that call our service members "Baby Killers". Obviously, the soldier is protecting the kid.

...these toe-sniffers go to the mosque and kick off their sandals....

I've always wondered what it is about the Islamic aversion to shoelaces. I can understand their aversion to cowboy boots, and maybe wingtip shoes, but you'd think that somebody would start to import some Converses or Reeboks or sumpin into the mid-east.

Or are shoelaces somehow un-Islamic?

#17 - Posted by: azlibertarian on June 5, 2007 09:12 PM

I bought a pair of camo shorts at Costco like those cammies. I walked into the local bar in them, and a buddy yelled (sarcastically), "HEY! NICE SHORTS!" I ripped his head off and shit down his neck. Who's sorry now?
