Was Pat Tillman murdered?

Very suspicious events surrounding his death, which was at first reported as death by enemy fire, but the pentagon later admitted it was a friendly-fire "accident". His family wants an investigation. Pat had written anti-war sentiments in his journal, which was burned by the army, and had an interview set up with anti-war activist Noam Chomsky. Follow link below.

my thought is, it's certainly possible, but i can tell you this for sure, absolutely nobody on this message board knows the answer to this question.

If you consider friendly fire to be murder than yes. I guess we murder a lot of people these days. Just check the amount of civilians killed by it......

3 bullets in the forehead from a distance of 10 yards, and not a single bullet of enemy fire struck any equipment or soldiers, so there is no evidence whatsoever that there were ever any enemies present.

This could have been a "fragging."

It's possible. But I pray that he wasn't murdered.:tiptoe:

The account does not sound like an accident to me. Accounts from his comrades say he was yelling "cease fire, cease fire, I'm Pat Tillman, before being shot 3 times in the head."

They then burned his diary because he had written things in it against Bush and the war in Iraq. Imagine the public sway this "gung ho football player war hero" would have had on certain segments of the population if he had become an anti-war activist.

My thoughts exactly.
