Some do, and sadly, and far too often, they pay for it. Joe Darby is a hero who now has to live his life in fear. Some people have no concept of right or wrong.

Enemies or not, no one deserves such dehumanized and disrespectful treatment. Darby did a very courageous thing, and anyone who considers his actions "unpatriotic" is ignorant, because that's nearly equivalent to saying that patriotism is akin to blind, unwavering support which is never to be questioned. I suppose that is the type of patriotism that currently being sold to the American populous on a daily basis during this administration though.

Whether or not we Americans have seen the worst content... the content that we have been exposed to has been enough to open the eyes of those who do care, I know there is so much more torture and cruelty out there than I know about and it just makes me so damn sick to think that someone can treat another human in such a way. My stomach is in knots for hours when I read these articles. BUT even if we had seen the worst content, there are still the sickest of individuals in this world that will still think that those getting tortured are getting what they "deserve".

I still like to think that human decency would triumph over everything else, but I realize it is naive of me to believe. That is so disturbing.
