The only problem I have with those shown on 60 Minutes is that I inherently distrust the media to any degree. As far as I know, the people on 60 Minutes easily could have manipulated/moved the soldiers to respond in certain ways to make them look bad. There's no such thing as a non-biased, or trustworthy, news source, nor has there ever been, unfortunately.

That DOES in fact sound unneccecarily harsh. I hate malfactors as much as you, but everyone deserves a second chance. After that though, I'm done being nice.

Here's the thing; if they do it once, they WILL do it again, no matter what you say/do. There's no such thing as a truly reformed person, from what I can tell in my experience.
