U.S. Marine opens fire outside Mass. nightclub

BOSTON, Aug 15 (Reuters) - A decorated U.S. Marine, who
had been treated for post-war stress since serving in Iraq,
opened fire outside a Massachusetts nightclub, wounding
two people, Boston media reported on Monday.
Daniel B. Cotnoir will be arraigned on Monday on charges
of assault and battery with a deadly weapon and assault
with intent to murder after the incident early on Saturday
in the city of Lawrence, The Boston Globe said.
Cotnoir had complained to police after a crowd of nearly 30
people gathered outside a nightclub and restaurant near his
apartment. After someone hurled a bottle that shattered his
bedroom window, Cotnoir fired "a warning shot," the newspaper
said.
The bullet hit a 15-year-old girl and a 20-year-old man.
"He shot into what he thought was a safe area, but there was
some ricochet effects that Mr. Cotnoir never intended," his
lawyer, Robert F. Kelley, was quoted as saying.
"It was a military-type response to a threatening situation
that was civilian in nature."
Cotnoir, a sergeant awarded the 2005 Marine of the Year by
the Marine Corps Times, has been struggling psychologically
since returning from Iraq in 2004, Kelley said.

working on keeping things like this from happening. Mandatory screenings,
counseling for the soldiers and their family.
Obviously not enough. Bush claims another victim.

would of been FAR MORE effective. After all, Kerry is a flip-flopper,
with no political beliefs, while Teddy is a flat out liberal, right?

Why do you support these cowards?
Why do you accept their sending good men to die in cause they would not
support with their bodies?
