Everyone should be responsible for their own safety. I see no reason why the US should have presence in any countries, especially ones where they are not wanted. (And I mean this across the board, to every country and installation and "war".) | ||

Infact if you go to some bars and clubs in Korea, there are signs which has "NO GIs ALLOWED" pasted right in front of it.

As a Korean American, I try my best to tell my fellow fobfest Korean peers in Korea that generalizing America (actually, every country) is not the best way to do it Especially a country like America where there are so many different types of personalities Did you know my gf (who is like 99999% fob Korean) was in shock when she learned how bad the American economy was? Infact I was shocked that most Koreans didn't know how hard america is having it right now  | ||

Discuss this on a moral or philosophical basis, but there's really no point including politics in this. South Korea needs America. I don't mean offense here, but I'd rather have one or two rape cases a month than lose America's presence in the region. I know that might have sounded hella wrong, but let's admit it, North Korea would eat all the kimchi in Seoul within a week without America. | ||

(And I mean this across the board, to every country and installation and "war".) As to my previous post, this just adds as to why people shouldn't discuss this on a political level. Especially if they know nothing about the situation in the pacific. | ||

As an aside, they will basically let anyone into the US army, having been to a recruiting office, they will let you know beforehand what questions will immediately disqualify you from service if answered not to their liking, so its not too difficult to lie your way into service. | ||

Also, as a show of good faith, these soldiers should be tried in Korean courts and get sentenced to chemical castration. | ||

North Korea is as threatening as a homeless dog. Their military is largely obsolete. If a war broke out between the two Koreas and no outside force interfered, North Korea would lose without a question. The whole "North Korea is a threat" thing that Americans think and fear so much rises up from pure rhetorical fear-mongering. North Korea isn't keeping sheepish because of American military presence. They're all talk because they know they don't have the capacity to do anything even if they wanted to. | ||

If this were your sister or daughter you wouldn't be laughing would you... If these 2 soldiers did do the crime they should be charged and punished with the highest possible punishment. Sadly castration is not done any more but I would like to have that done to them if they truly did commit these acts. | ||
