Thanks LT..took the words outta my mouth.
In dark times there is dark humor. Without humor our phyche will surely snap. Its a coping mechanism. Police go through it, Medical staff too. Why should it be any different for the men and women in the midst of some of the darkest battles for their lives. Think about it...they (Like many of you did before them) are watching some of their closest friends die before their eyes and there isn't a whole heck of a lot they can do to prevent it.
Give them a break. The media should never have ran with this. All it will do is incite those already antimilitary protestors looming around. Yes I find it funny and yes I passed it on to some friends of mine. But then we also share the dark humor.
