God bless him, we are all flawed as our sins and the Lord says, some more than others...but he will always be my hero, my kids know of him and he is always will be the legend.
I was at a gun show in Pasadena TX on new years day, the people I met who served and we're in country then knew of him. Call him a racist, most of you live in my backyard commie for iacopi. I'm ashamed of this state, policy dictate of my 2A rights..and wish an earthquake would break the state off the map and into the sea. Eff CA , liberals, and IMDB.

3 things: I'm disappointed with what I'm hearing about his defamation suit with Jesse Ventura.

He apparently was picking off looters during Katrina; I don't know how true that story was.

And I don't like that punisher symbol. I don't think it sends a good message to the people of occupying lands and the SS had that kind of insignia on their uniforms. I was thinking that throughout the movie and apparently others feel the same way.

Anyways nobody's perfect but I also don't like hagiography especially when it's not completely true. The guy was not a saint and I certainly don't agree with that war. That bein said I still have major respect for anyone who went over there and is able to go through that and put their lives on the line, just as long as they didn't commit any atrocities.

Apparently he didn't knock out Jesse at McGintys in San Diego, and the looters story is till not factual, he also claimed to have shot car jackers back home,
But the punisher logo was already invented, he just adopted it cause it looks badass, don't have a problem with it.

Marcus Luttrel (lone survivor) was a spiderman fan, he used it for bona fides when captured, super hero thing.
