News reports that the General was shot from about 100 yards.

It is sad to read comments one some of the news sites about how cowardly the shooter was, when he was doing what our snipers do.

Their snipers shooting a high ranking officer are cowards
Our snipers shooting a high ranking person are heroes

I get it.

It is sad that the General got shot. But honestly, no more nor less sad when when other members of our military get shot.

I wonder who will get a more flamboyant memorial?????
