Funny thing is that also in 2003, West--as a 42 year old lieutenant colonel charged with the command of American lives--engages in an act of torture on an Iraqi detainee, thus placing his own men at risk and being charged with violations of the UCMJ.

A 19 year old college kid "verbally assaulting" (read: cursing at) a police officer versus a 42 year old having an Iraqi police officer physically assaulted and then placing his head in a bucket and discharging his firearm directly next to his head. Which do you think reflects more on the man's actual character?
