Pretty cool story...

Marine in Afghanistan catches an RPG in the leg, which fails detonate.

The link includes video of the Army EOD guy extracting it (nothing graphic).

RPG = Role Play Game? :unsure:
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Walk it off!

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.
