    When i went through the Marines it was made clear to us that if orders to do something put us in a moral quandary then they probably aren’t lawful orders. This was because they didn’t ever want more Nazis who follow orders blindly like we saw in the Nuremberg trials. Now it just seems like there are so many bootlickers who are just dumbass robots that have human bodily functions and no sense of real morality, and far too few have the courage to question or ignore orders that shouldn’t be followed.

    My point is we need more Hugh Clowers Thompson Jr’s and less Adolf Eichmann’s in this world.
