Behind the Bastards on Seal Team 6 just makes me want those entire wings of the american military machine dissolved in acid just to make sure their “pirate” bullshit gets expunged.

They’re just incompetent murderers. They shouldn’t be entrusted with a fucking freeze-pop they might cut themselves

How do you have two dudes beating a tied-up civilian and you end up with your own man down with a broken rib?

Absolute fucking incompetence that gets americans killed. The more crazy shit you do in the sandbox, the more enemies you make, the more the locals call for death to america.

If seal team 6’s job was just to make foreigners hate americans, they succeeded. Thats all it did. And got killed. Including by drowning because their equipment was too heavy. Fucking stellar.
