Documentary - The Tillman Story

You probably don't need another reason to hate the US government, but this is an excellent documentary.

Amazing man. Amazing family.

Yank football AND Yank soldiers?
I would rather chew my own cock off.
No offence intended man.

Just watched the trailer and it looks like my cuppa tea, cheers sooter, going to look out for it.

it's right up your street tone, all american hero gives up multi-million footy contract to 'serve' after 9/11 but tragically in the fog of war, where accidents happen, he is killed in a friendly fire error and the gov attempt to cover it up, give him a fake medal to say he was a hero then the story comes out and everyone is contrite and his family just say he wouldn't have wanted to see any trouble, these things happen but shouldn't, flutter flag at end with solemn muzak

on second thoughts, don't watch it tone, you'll not be able to draw breath through screaming at the telly and will suffocate

it's shit, don't watch it

it's basically a big 'fuck you' to the media, the government and the military.

fwiw, there's very little football.
