I hope our history books, 100 years from now, will remember this brave soldier's struggle for peace against Capital made in U.$.A. enemy. This story is so sad.

[evansville70]

DON'T SUPPORT THE GOVERNMENT AND THEIR NEW WORLD ORDER.... NEVER GO TO WAR ... KILLING IS NEVER THE ANSWER.. PEACE IS ALWAYS THE SOLUTION. LOVE AND RESPECT YOUR LIFE AS WELL AS OTHERS..

[sagemakaiserxl]

Only 40 people are protesting? Seriously just drop the charges. Then give him a job in politics. Because they are sorely lacking in common sense.

[TheCircle000]

This guy shouldn't go to prison, Bush should be sent to prison.

[Fx3Productions]

you get put in jail if you kill people, you get put in jail if you don't kill people. What the fuck?

[JimboTHC]

This mans a real hero.

Don't expect a Pardon from Barack Obush the III.

That puppet is bought and paid for by the same interests that gave us Bush.

[MissSatyaDanu]

We are happy to have you and i hope you stay with us in Canada

[subadubable]

He's doing the right thing in objecting to participate in a war, not to mention an insane, totally unnecessary war like the Iraq war.

[pistolpete667]

nobody should join the military to begin with

[brianandsharon07]

Mr. Moore, I just want to say thank you so much for all your hard work making documentaries and uploading these videos which our government does not want us to see. I'm a big fan of your work, especially SICKO, which I cannot to this day watch without sobbing. Our system is so backwards, and I really think you did a great job of showing that in your films. Thank you for fighting for us in your own special way. Much love from Florida:)

OBAMA...PARDON THIS MAN!!!

[alphabeets]

He doesn't want to kill other people. He chose peace. We should all praise and honor this man.

[soccerdude601]

this is far from a criminal act. i like to see objection to evil/illegal activities. both of the wars should just end. there is no point in continuing the destruction of poor countries and killing the people there. we've been the most despised country for a reason.

[DoctorS8n]

Obama should forgive and forget & give this man a discharge but not in dishonor.He did what he felt was the right thing to do,its just sad that more did not go with him.

[bagelboi66]

Canadians welcome conscientious objectors, we always have. This man is a hero for having the courage of his convictions not to kill.

[MarkusW1983]

Come on Canada, give this true hero asylum!

[itubeutude]

Seems stupid to put someone in jail because they won't follow orders to kill people.

[DDuncanLima]

Im starting to love Canada...

[manweller1]

This guy is a very brave man.

[pigfister]

its a soldiers duty to disobey illegal orders, & seems iraq was an ilegal war, this man is one of the only hero's.

[bohemianwriter1]

@pigfister

Tell that to Dick Cheney whos brainchild was to use 9.11 for PNAC and oil....

[Cookiefox]

What an honorable young man, lets hope he can stay in Canada

[navtel]

if harper and mackay had not kissed up to bush and obama we would be granting watson and other asylum as we did in the vietnam war.. another illegal war and invasion of yet another country.. america is doomed to fail.
