"During a panel discussion on Wednesday's NBC Today, attorney Star Jones and the network's chief medical editor Nancy Snyderman hyperventilated over Britain's Prince Harry revealing in interviews that he killed Taliban fighters during combat in Afghanistan. Jones fretted: "Why do you need to antagonize the Taliban?"
It was a member of YOUR profession who asked the Prince a question. He answered it.
If you don't like the answers you're given then shut up and quit asking questions. Many people, particularly Soldiers of any stripe are rather blunt. Ask the a question, they won't take 30 to 40 seconds if not longer to answer. They will think maybe 2 or 3 seconds then answer your question. Probably with the first thing that pops in their head.
It reminds me of the story of the Marine Sniper being asked what he felt when he pulled the trigger on an Insurgent. The Marine's reply? "Recoil"
