Marine from Minnesota killed in Afghanistan

Three Marines showed up at the door of Clifford and Cindy Taylor's rural Two Harbors home Friday night with the message no parent of a military member wants to hear.

Mr. and Mrs. Taylor, I am so sorry for your loss. Please accept my heartfelt thank you for the sacrifice your family has made to help ensure a safer world for the rest of us. May your memories comfort you in your time of grief. In God's love, Zen

Just keep sending all the troops you want to die.

This war is a $40 million dollar a day loser ,plus casulaties.

5000 dead so far...just keep em coming...

Our troops are accomplishing nothing, their efforts are making the world a worse place.

This war is about REVENGE and is backfiring in our face

Our troops deserve sympathy but ZERO SUPPORT, they are in the wrong place at the wrong time for all the wrong reasons.

The weight and folly of our military efforts guarentee our eventual defeat.....

Take your diatribe to the streets of FLA and preach there in a more public and face to face manner. This isn't the forum.

rattlecattle,

Please crawl back into the hole you came out of. I believe our troops are today' s modern heroes.

I wonder what you do on the 4th of July?

[James]

My prayers every night are for the men and women who are sent in harms way to fight in wars that has no meaning and no value. Their lives are being sacrificed for neither principle nor high purpose. Afghanistan and Iraq are the wrong wars for wrong reasons at the wrong time.

George W. Bush should apologize to the families of our dead for starting these senseless wars and and Barack Obama for not ending them.

I don't know what you are talking about because If you haven't heard inthe past week the Tailiband is joining up with Al-quida which is making it harder for us to be winning the war. Another reason is that Osamha is basically giving us the slip every time we come closer to him so i wouldn't talk about the military like that if i where you because your not in the military and you don't know what there dealing with.

Usa will not lose in Afganistan because if you didn't here we're supposed to send over 40,000 troops and that is far more troops than what Al-Quida has and sure enough we will bring all the weaponry and all of there arsonall they got and we will destroy afganistan even if it means killing all of the innocent people we will win I'm sure of it. And like I said to the other guy your not from the military so you shouldn't talk crap about them if you don't know what's going on with it and what there trying to do about them so I'd advise yo uto stay quiet

YOU FOOL....our troop are just TARGETS

We have no where near the troops necessary to win anything.

We had almost 500 k troops in Vietnam and still lost easily

Our TROOPS have ZERO Chance of Victory...not even close

I know what I am talking about....YOU DO NOT.

We have accomplished NOTHING in 8 years so far...we can stay 100 years and still never win.

Americans are ARROGANT and need to go home and shut UP!

Red Foreman - WOW you get really defensive when someone disagrees with you. How about growing up and just listening to both sides w/o being disrespectful?

Right back at you. Rattleidiot's posting his crap HERE on this particular story, and if you knew his background of finding every dead soldier's write up and how utterly disrespectful he is to their families by taking up his opinions on death notification stories on a daily basis, you would know why.

Same to you, site your anti war opinions elsewhere.

[Red Foreman]

If you take notice, the first truly disrespectful post here was from one of your own ilk. Nice try though.

WRONG!

He wasted his life for the mistakes of the Bush Regime that was in charge at the time this BLUNDERFESTIVAL started.

This war like Vietnam is a LOSER......get used to the fact that every penny and every life will be wasted in these wars and there is not anything HEROIC about them.
