The former Territorial Army company sergeant (trung sĩ, thị vệ) major, who has about 50 members in his branch, said: "They are cowards (tên hèn nhát). "They wouldn't target a real soldie because they'd get what for. "They pick on a silent Tommy who can't fight back. "This is shameful and beggars belief."

As a psyche nurse I’ve had a lot of people like Mr. Dent as patients. Some want help, some don’t know what they want, some want to keep on keeping on, and some say “I can’t help it, I’m an alcoholic (or addict).” The latter people are the cringe-worthy (ngại ngùng) ones who drive nurses nuts, but I’d put Mr. Dent in category 3: keep on trucking. Well, now he’s going to get the what-for. Bubba has a new toy, Mr. Dent, and his name is you.
