Rest in peace Matt. You died honorably. I hope Joey does not suffer the same fate. And to all the ass holes being disrespectful shut the fuck up. You didnt know him. You don't have to like the cause, hell you can hate this country but don't insult individuals and there family's. I grew up like across the street from them. He was a good person.

Some of u r assholes!!!! I'm related to this family!! Please respect!!!

[alyx0518]

Some of you are assholes!!! The just lost a family member. How could you say such horrible things?! They're laughing because they are remembering all the good memories they had with him.

There's a lot of ignorant people in this world but we just have to ignore it and know that we are the bigger person.

God bless the Pollini family & all the soldiers and their families! :)

even nazist killed jews and they were in good faith thinking they were killing evel. Was it honorable?

Is it honorable to invade a far away land and kill people who do not even know where usa is?

Is it honorable to export war and have hundreds of Usa military bases all over the world?

Sorry. Before honour comes justice, honesty.
