He said he was there over the police brutality taking place... but if he was there for OWS then more kudos.

I guess the discussion is done, since all you have been able to contribute in your recent posts are your photo zinggers, and zero substance. Maybe one day you can learn to talk with grown ups.

Other marines at the protest, I saw in another thread on here (I will source later since I'm on my iPhone) that Marines from C-Birf were also in attendance, apparently they were met with mixed emotions but in my opinion it makes me feel good the Marine Corps is involved and from my understanding from a friend in the unit they were there for everybody. I hope more Marines continue to be a positive face at these protests.
To quell any questions about their behavior and uniforms, black polo shirts and khaki pants, marine demeanor "We have a PR rep to answer your questions."

There is a big picture if you would open your eyes. America is at a crossroads!
It's a brave new world or soon will be.

that's how far I would go to intervene in police injustice
police would be less necessary if citizens of the world could better police themselves.

As a Marine veteran, if you were at these protest and saw what you perceived to be an innocent woman get punched by a cop, would you stand by and do nothing or merely complain?
Additionally, if you personally saw cops walking around doing nothing, would you yell at them criticizing them in a confrontational manner?

What would you have done?
If by "walking around doing nothing" you mean trying to quell a nonviolent protest by intimidation and by "yell at them criticizing them in a confrontational manner" you mean using my command presence to assert authority nonviolently to express my personal opinions I'd probably go with my gut and do what I felt needed to be done.
