God bless the liberal media. They took some innocuous machismo comments and turned them on their head. CNN and others are claiming that a Marine General said "It's fun to shoot people". Indeed, the CNN Headline proclaims: Marine general: It's 'fun to shoot people'

The problem is, that isn't what he said. He said it's fun to shoot some people. And that 'some' makes all the difference.

"Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot," Mattis said, prompting laughter from some military members in the audience. "It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling.

"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil," Mattis said. "You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them."

Now, beating up women is a pet peeve of mine. It causes me to see that red curtain of blood that Kim is always talking about.

Now, I'm not saying I would go out and shoot wife-beaters like some psychotic vigilante. But I can certainly relate to where the General is coming from.
