Are our priorities that JACKED UP? Demolition workers find body of missing Army reservist in St. Louis alley.

CSM Michael J. Uhlig We didn't allow one of our own to lie alone in death, we didn't know.. We didn't know he was in danger, if we knew we would have been there to stop this.

When you posted this on another thread first, my first thought was that I will find out the where, when and I will attend his funeral because he is my brother in arms and he deserves to be respected.

This is a travesty...in a "civilized" society.

We don't yet know what occurred, or why-but it's enough to know a brother lost his life, and someone should provide answers.

All this hate...why? We enjoy a better life than practically the entire rest of the world. Sure, they have some nice things in Europe-they also have to just about fill out a form to visit the head.

Time we start remembering what we built together, rather than tearing it down over what keeps us apart.

CSM it's a damn shame when we loose one in battle. It's made worse when that serviceman comes home just to die on "friendly" soil. I'm sorry that this Soldier has been murdered. I'm deeply troubled for his family, and loved ones left behind. And who I'm also feeling sorry for are those who felt the need to do this. I feel sorry for them because of what they took away from us with no regards to his, the families, or our feelings. I feel sorry for them because one day they will be found, and will have to answer for what they did, and at that point I'll rejoice knowing that the family now has closure, the Army has closure, and that justice has been served. Problem with that is they'll spend the rest of their lives alive thinking about what got them there, blaming everyone but themselves, while getting three hots and a cot, and I do not think that's right.
As for the issues in America, we (SOME NOT ALL) want to place blame everywhere, on everything, and anyone but not on who it really needs to fall on. We don't want to hold folks accountable for their actions because it might offend or hurt relations. We want to claim mental illness as a "catch all" for every single person who acts out of line when we know good and damn well nothings wrong with them. I remember as a child when I acted up my father had a large dose of "Act Right". He ALWAYS won. You cannot do that today. You raise your voice or hand at a child and CPS is hauling you away. When that non disciplined child grows up, the local PD is hauling him away. There are hard solutions to the problems, but the actions to take them could be deemed extreme. When America's ready to make that hard left onto "lets do right together" Blvd, we'll get somewhere. When we stop making excuses for behavior that's' plainly inexcusable, we'll get somewhere. When parents begin again to be the role models for their kids and not let LeBron or some other sports "hero" be it for them, we'll get somewhere. We need to take that left soon because we've been on F*ck it highway for decades and it hasn't gotten us anywhere.

RIP Brother.
