  1. Burnett testified that on the night of Dec. 4, he and the three other soldiers lured Roark and York to some woods a short distance from the Army post under the guise that they were going target shooting. He said Peden shot Roark's girlfriend in the head while she was trying to get out of her car. Salmon, he said, made Roark get on his knees and shot him twice in the head. Burnett said Aguigui ordered the killings.

    "A loose end is the way Isaac put it," Burnett said.

    :wow:

  2. Honestly, I would advise you not talk about your time at Walmart unless you enjoy being attacked. This forum is full of snobby elitists who would love nothing more than another reason to attack you.

    Bring it on! I'm about to go there and get some supplies for this storm. It's going to be mayhem! Can't wait for the hurricane jokes. ;)

  3. Oh my goodness. :lol: I am not attacking you. You are so dramatic when anyone doesn't agree with you.

    I'm not acting any way. I said I didn't go to Walmart, you decided to tell me about the people who don't have a choice in the matter. I agreed that some people do not have a choice. I simply said Romney not liking Walmart isn't a big deal to me. You then said "If you'd read anything about the story...", implying I hadn't. I said not to make assumptions.

    That's it. That's all. It's really not a big deal.

    Nobody got "attacked" ... :lol:

    Yes, you are being sweetness and light, as always. :lol: I'm offended?

    I really have no interest in your thoughts on Walmart, my comments were in relation to Romney and appealing "regular" people. You keep talking about yourself for some reason.

  4. I don't have a bad attitude. I'm allowed to disagree with you. Your opinion isn't fact, no matter how much you try to present it as such.

    I don't think it's a big deal that Romney doesn't like Walmart. Sorry that offends you or leads you to believe I don't know what I'm talking about.

    Offends me? You really should stop with the attacks, it doesn't reflect well on you. You can disagree all you want, there is no need to act the way you are. I could make a number of comments about you, but I don't.

  5. Then I must be reading your posts wrong.

    Your posts usually consist of a line like "If you'd actually READ about this... " or "If you knew anything about this..." - that sounds assuming to me.

    You tell people what they DON'T know all the time. :lol:

    But okay, I must be making it up. My mistake.

    Yes, you are reading it wrong. It seemed to me that you hadn't read about the story because you couldn't figure out why this was an issue for Romney. It was really quite simple. You continue with your bad attitude, perhaps you should take your own advice.

  6. I did read this story. You always assume that if someone disagrees with you, they aren't as informed as you are, and usually that's incorrect.

    Of course he says he's a regular person. I don't think many people are buying it, and they weren't buying it LONG before he decided to not like Walmart.

    No, I don't assume that. Nice assumption though. You questioned why it was a problem, I explained why. There is no need to get snooty.

    X 10... (I wish I could give you one thousand kudos)

    Me too. Finally mawilson and I agree on something. :dance:

  7. I agree that some people don't have other options.

    I'm disagreeing with your use of MOST people. I don't think MOST people have no other option than Walmart.

    Anyway, like I said, I don't care if people go to Walmart. I simply said I chose not to.

    So Mittens doesn't like Walmart. If he said he did, it's not like anyone was going to say "Oh, he IS a regular guy after all!" He's way past that and everyone knows he isn't. So who cares.

    You might think there are other options, but for many there aren't. Just because you have other options does not mean others do too. Even if they do have options, many cannot afford to shop elsewhere.

    Romney has said time and time again that he is a "regular" person. If you had actually read about this story you would know he also made pancakes to try and seem "regular". Regular people go to Walmart. The reason this was a bad move is pretty obvious.

    Funny how people go to Walmart to buy ####### made in China, then ###### about their jobs going to China.

    Gotta agree with you there. :lol:

  8. Okay. And?

    How do "most people" *have* to shop at Walmart? Do "most people" not live near any other stores?

    Not that I care where "most people" shop ... I was simply stating why I don't go there.

    Mostly because people can't afford to shop at smaller, more expensive grocery stores for food. What about affordable clothing?

    Other reasons are that there are a very limited amount of those stores here and in many other places. Target does not sell fresh produce and they are few and far between. There is no Costco. There is no wholefoods, trader joes or anything like that. What if you need other items like hardware, kitchen appliances, sporting goods, affordable furniture? Where would these people go?
