Let's Put Bounties on Russian Soldiers

[Joe Nation]

Hey Putin, the U.S. isn't funding Ukraine's war effort. We're just putting bounties on Russian soldiers and Ukraine decided to collect on those bounties. Payback is a bitch, eh?

1. No.

I know some might find that hard to believe coming from me, but there are things America does not do. Torture soldiers, make a sport of killing the enemy, or conduct genocidal war. Have we? Yes most likely. And there should have been sever consequences for it. There were not.
It was a war crime when the Russians did It, and a war crime for us to do it. It isn't who we are, supposed to be.

Unfortunately the U.S. has and does do those things.

And two wrongs, as grandma said, don't make it right.

10. Right now Ukrainians are getting slaughtered by russians.

The country is being shelled by russian forces.

i think we need to do whatever it takes to stop these atrocities and genocide.

12. Sure and if we do this

And American soldiers get involved eventually you'll be OK with tit for tat? They did it so we can do it so now everyone can just ignore war crimes? That doesn't seem like the way to go.

14. Given your observations, why would they need a monetary incentive? nt

4. Absolutely Not

I suggest deleting your post.

5. I'm sure this is rhetoric and not a serious suggestion, but it is good to remember that

Russia did this.

11. You know that story probably wasn't true, right?

Just wanted to make sure . . . because it doesn't seem like you know that.

22. Right?

I feel like that should be in a museum somewhere. It looks like a painting. Completely gripping.

13. Personally I think there should be a worldwide collection for a bounty

on Putin. No one man should have the power to murder so many innocent people! Get rid of Putin and end the Ukrainian war!

15. Ukraine has bounties on their equipment.

$1M for a fighter jet. $500k for helicopters.

We should raise and expand them to get the orcs to surrender.

16. I vote no on this.

As it is now, we Americans are being called hypocrites for condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine all the while we tore up the Middle East. I hate being accused of supporting US actions which I did not condone.

We don’t need to start being inhumane to Russian soldiers who are fighting because the alternative is either Siberia, or a firing squad, or a re-education camp, or some atrocities to their family. Yes, some of the soldiers are committing war crimes, but some are just doing the job.

War is horrible.
