I know from my ' Phil Shiner Thread ' I will find objections to my view but I am so pleased that Sgt Blackman has had his sentence reduced to Manslaughter.

Well done to those who have stood by him and not thrown him under the bus.

I hope he returns to his family ASAP.

I have used the link to the Daily Mail as they have championed his case.

Of course these people don't have feelings or grieve for their sons, fathers, husbands, etc...do they? hmm

I wonder how his family felt about the 140 Afghan Soldiers that the Taliban blew up less than 2 weeks ago, they probably celebrated.
