Cop Punches Victim (US Soldier) for Complaining It Took Them 45 Minutes to Respond to His Call

[siligut]

63. I read an article citing the paper your fire-team leader wrote

The article then explained, despite similar methods, why the Marines is not a cult. The problem is not with the Marines, the problem is with poorly disciplined police. Darden brought his service in the Marines to the table, which is why it became part of the discussion. Now I understand that you were doing what you have been programmed to do, it is good we had this exchange.

It is interesting about that programming, of course you feel compelled to follow through, but there is actually a kind of internal satisfaction/reward you get from it that doesn't come from other behaviors. Not just you, all persons who have experienced cult indoctrination.

I feel a mixture of pity and revulsion toward those gutless dicks. In a perfect world, Darden would have been screened out of both the Marines and the police force.
