The Spin


Since this was a preventable shooting and the Army has yet to take full responsibility, the victims have been forced to take this matter to court. It's remarkable that even after the Army's own investigation found procedural errors in how they dealt with Card, they're now trying to flip it around and claim they followed protocols to a tee. From the Army hospital to Card's own unit, everyone involved must be held accountable.
