Some Navy SEALs speak out about pardon of Special Operations Chief Eddie Gallagher | ABC News

1. I just read Gallagher’s book. How did the trial not run its course……he was acquitted on the most serious charges and was found guilty of one lesser charge.

2. Wow the best defense that lawyer can come up with is that Navy seals were afraid and didn't perform well. Okay, so the most tested soldiers on the planet were afraid and didn't perform well. Yeah that sounds believable!

3. ABC narrative is twisted and perverse. Corrupt and biased. Innocent is innocent, except when you are a person with an agenda. God bless America and Chief Gallagher.

4. Well when you watch your friends get killed and Americans tortured…what do you expect. Maybe he did or didn't do it. However, you can't say what anyone will do to a man until you've been to war….

5. EDDIE GALLAGHER IS AN AMERICAN HERO AND WAS PROVEN INNOCENT IN THE COURT OF LAW

6. Yup, saw a couple of interviews with Gallagher, he has been found innocent of any war crimes by a jury of his peers that is why he is free. He is only guilty of taking the pic of the dead ISIS terrorist, bad taste but not a crime. Kudos to the Gallgher's. Shame on his accusers, the military justice system and the media.

7. Glad Eddie is doing well. The seals on video showed their colors.

8. If any of you want to find out what actually happened just watch donuts video. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qFe-n4Eu6Mw

9. You guys know he was trying to save the person that he supposedly “killed” the main news won’t give you that article but do your research. They tried to frame him.

10. Fucking snitches

11. I saw several people posing with that body. Were they All reprimanded? Or just the one?

12. Those guys are a bunch of liars and frauds. Check and see where those idiots are now. Gallagher is a hero treated poorly.

13. Trump just bought himself an assassin for future use. I’m not an American and fear for the future of your country with the dictator you now have. Vote Trump the Traitor out!

14. Chief Gallagher can protect my freedoms anyday!! Thankyou for your dedication and service to protect us!!!!!! We need more soldiers like you who aren't afraid to make examples of these terrorists!!!!

15. Everyone that jumped to conclusions and believed these stupid news outlets owes Chief Gallagher an apology. The truth came out in a court of law and their little B.S stories fell apart. Shameful and a black eye for ncis!

16. Chief Gallagher… Sir… I will never forget, Thank you for your service

17. Shame on the seals, tarnished the entire reputation of a once respected unit. You'll burn in hell, Gallagher and those who watched and did nothing.

18. A 16 year old ISIS is well trained to take a life. The rules of engagement need to change, it is the only thing that is sending Americans back in a box.

19. I am not a trump fan but bottom line is that his own guys also changed their story on the stand during trial. I am also confused why the camera stopped. We always say INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY AND CANT CONVICT IF THERE IS NOT ENOUGH EVIDENCE.. NOT GUILTY OF MURDER BUT GUILTY OF TAKING A PIC OF A ISIS FIGHTER. PEOPLE STILL WANT TO SAY HE IS GUILTY OF MURDER. WHERE IS THE PROOF. ALL THE TOURS HE DID AND THEY WANT TO PUNISH HIM HARSHLY. HOW ABOUT 2 WEEK SUSPENSION WITHOUT PAY. THEY ARE TRYING TO PUNISH HIM FOR MURDER EVENTHOUGH HE WAS FOUND INNOCENT. IN THIS CASE I TRULY BELIEVE THAT TRUMP DID THE RIGHT THING EVEN THOUGH I HATE TRUMP. WHY DIDNT ANYONE FILM HIM OR KEEP THEIR STORYS STRAIGHT. WHY CHANGE YOUR MIND ON THE STAND AT TRIAL. I THINK HE NEEDS TO BE SUPPORTED BECAUSE TAKING A PIC OF A GUY WHO KILLS OUR TROOPS SHOULD BE A MISDEMEANOR. I THINK BECAUSE THEIR IS SO MUCH HATE FOR TRUMP, NOBODY WANTS TO LOOK AT THE FACTS. NOBODY COMPLAINED WHEN OSAMA BIN LADEN WAS EXECUTED WHEN IN FACT HE COULD OF BEEN BROUGHT IN ALIVE.

20. Where did they speak out about the pardon? Very misleading headline.

21. War crimes?
    He was depromoted for possessing a picture. During his investigation a medic admitted to the crime… Fake news.

22. This criminal doesn't respect the
    convention treaty.
    Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War, 75 U.N.T.S. 135, entered into force Oct. 21, 1950.

    Article 3

Persons taking no active part in the hostilities, including members of armed forces who have laid down their arms and those placed hors de combat by sickness, wounds, detention, or any other cause, shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, without any adverse distinction founded on race, colour, religion or faith, sex, birth or wealth, or any other similar criteria.
    To this end the following acts are and shall remain prohibited at any time and in any place whatsoever with respect to the above-mentioned persons:

    The Parties to the conflict should further endeavour to bring into force, by means of special agreements, all or part of the other provisions of the present Convention.
    The application of the preceding provisions shall not affect the legal status of the Parties to the conflict

23. Let me fix that title for you:

    "Navy SEALs, one of whom later admitted HE killed the man, who received poor performance reviews try to frame their commanding officer, and we 'forget' to mention any of that so we can use this to bash Trump"

    It's a bit wordy, but at least it's factual.

24. Knock it off Guys , The Country is dealing with enough … it's War .
    … I've never been there but if I lost a buddy , the next enemy wouldn't be My friend and I'd be looking for him .
    It's not soccer/football and it's Always been this Way … War sucks and be glad You don't have to witness it .
    … But Don't Throw The Warriors Under The Bus .
    … everyone has a motive

25. Cry me a river ABC if it was a real war criminal like Bergdahl and Obama the pro cop killer. You'd be praising them . Leftist Nazi's are nuts.

26. 5$ says it was "released" by EX Secretary of the Navy….

27. Has to be said – these videos are released for anti-Trump political purposes. Would never have been released otherwise.

28. This is nothing new with US military. They killed innocent civilians in all wars.

29. Walk a mile in his shoes people.

30. So first he was alive in th video and then dead in the photo with them posing what killed him?………
