You think it's stupid to get angry about rape? Who cares if they interpret 2 Americans as the entire country, I'm pretty sure having your people raped is something to get angry about regardless of the offenders nationality.

The negligible loss in economy is worth it in the long run so less rapes, hit and runs, murders, robberies, what have you occur.

"Absolutely Inexcusable"
"Makes me sad to be an American"
"Hang them"
"Chemical Castration sounds good"

You people are crazy, you don't even know if they did anything. They were ACCUSED, that doesn't mean they actually did anything. It's like 90% of the people in this thread just completely skipped over those key words.

This is why you people are so deluded. 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.


Dont want to make this a NK vs SK but I believe North Korea have nuclear weapons and so anyone with nuclear weapons is a threat as they can make any peace of land unusable for 100s/1000s of years and kill many people.

This is implying that soldiers are more likely to commit crimes. If they aren't, then applying your logic we can just lock everybody up if the loss in economy if worth less crimes.

Meh, sounds like an isolated incident. This is the first time I have heard of servicemen in Korea being accused of something like this though. People in the service, as well as their children, have done a bunch of horrible shit overseas, look up all the marines who have been arrested in Japan for doing various retarded shit.

So, this is US military. US should just shut down 7/8 of their military and do something useful with the money, like making free healthcare for everyone. Why does America think they have to control the world?

Looking into it a little bit at least 1 rape would be under forceful rape, ages 18 woman and 21 solider making chemical castration not valid. But in general something like that is either the woman was raped or not raped, if raped was raped by someone looking foreign or a new recruit ir would be wearing his fatigues which would point to the US, and the US military would limit it to people who were off base during the incident and turn that person over for questioning.

The problem with the op is that it doesn't have the 2 separate stories in good detail.

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


Not saying rape should be tolerated, but punishing thousands of soldiers for the actions of 2 is ridiculous. Imagine if you were stationed overseas and not allowed to leave a base for months/years.

What happened was terrible and the soldiers should be punished for their crimes. However, this shouldn't be a reflection of the entire US armed forces.

Everyone does this. Hell, the American media has demonized an entire race/religion for 9/11 and justified a war for doing it. Yes, you need to be level headed and realize that a select group of people do not represent a larger group, but you're basically beating a dead horse by pointing that out in this thread.

Secondly im sorry but this is funny. No i don't think im a bad person for laughing at it, i thought it was a good joke.

Which basically led to this thread becoming another bash america and their military thread. Until those soldiers are PROVEN guilty, I would hope to see team liquid members be a little more open minded. But that ain't happening since it seems the only thing that they learned in school was how to mindlessly bash america.

I completely agree with you. From the USA i am.

It's just that corporations control the minds of the people here, and much profiteering is to be made in the war & gun industry. It's a shame.

How they control the minds of the people is both complex and simple.

The US military is often relied upon by other countries to do things (for example, recently Libya).

Maybe this isn't ideal for the world, nor for the USA, but it's not just the USA's fault.

To be honest, I don't really see what the big deal is...

Unless I'm reading this wrong, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_statistics#United_States says there are ~28 cases of rape in the US/100,000 people per year.

With 30,000 soldiers there, some rapes will occur.

I find this kind of stupid. People do all kinds of crime but just because the two were soldiers the headline is now "U.S. solders did such and such." There are black sheep everywhere but as long as the rate of crime done by U.S. soldiers is not higher than that of the others it's highly illogical to conclude somehow that all of them are like that...

P.S.: I also think that the US is there to help south korea else they wouldnt even be there anymore...
