Soldiers Who Buy Body Armor Face Losing Life Insurance And Disciplinary Action… | The Huffington Post

Soldiers Who Buy Body Armor Face Losing Life Insurance And Disciplinary Action… | The Huffington Post

I've mentioned this story before and while paying attention to it I noticed a discussion of it on the The Huffington Post. The Huffington Post supposedly has a method to identify and theoretically remove abusive comments. I've clicked on the [flag it] button twice in the last two days but this morning as I check, this comment is still there:

"It's too funny. These soldiers were all big Bush/Republican supporters all these years, now they're getting it shoved so far up their ass by their boy Bush that it's coming out their mouths. Remember - every day these soldiers have a choice and a chance to do the right thing: they can turn their weapons on their commanders and end the whole fucking thing. They don't have the courage and clarity to do that, though. They're good little republican boys.

Is this comment abusive? spam? [flag it]"

This is the fourth comment on the thread of over 200 posts. And it's still there although it's clearly abusive and probably criminal. It's also cowardly as is typical by those who advocate others to do the violence they wouldn't dare attempt. To me it's just sickening. The topic is important, the body armor controversy needs to be addressed but not this way by cowards advocating violence.
