Barton Cannot Return To Iraq Due To Injuries

Foster Barton, 19, of Grove City, received a Purple Heart for his military service in Iraq. He almost lost his leg last month after a Humvee he was riding in ran over a landmine.

Barton said he was injured again Friday night in a crowded parking lot as he was leaving the Toby Keith concert at Germain Amphitheatre. The solider was injured so badly that he can't go back to Iraq as scheduled.

"I don't remember getting hit at all, really," said Barton, a member of the 1st Calvary Division. "He hit me in the back of the head. I fell and hit the ground. I was knocked unconscious and he continued to punch and kick me on the ground."

Barton and his family said he was beat up because he was wearing an Iraqi freedom T-shirt.

"It's not our fault," Barton said. "I'm just doing a job."

According to a Columbus police report, six witnesses who didn't know Barton said the person who beat him up was screaming profanities and making crude remarks about U.S. soldiers, Burton reported.

One witness, a friend of the alleged attacker, said Barton hit first. Police said they do not think that witness is credible since the six other witnesses said Barton was hit from behind.

Barton's mother said she has a message for her son's alleged attacker, who police said ran into the crowd after the incident and was not arrested.

"He needs our prayers, just like the insurgents, because he's a coward," Cindy Barton said.

After a two-week leave, Barton was supposed to return to Iraq Tuesday. But his broken nose will delay his return.

Barton is waiting for doctors to tell him when he can return to active duty. He said wants to go back as soon as possible because his unit was just attacked. Eleven soldiers were wounded and two were killed, he said

FUCK these liberal pieces of trash! These un-American traiterous assholes should burn in hell!

Let me see if I got this right... they put the name of the injured soldier & his hometown in the story, but fail to print the name of his attacker???? Or the witness who claimed he started it?????

WTF, over?

I would have tried to help the solider.

But there is a up side to the whole ordeal. They guy gets a few more days in the states before he is sent back to the sandbox. I bet that hippie asshole didn't realize he was buying the solider some more time with his loved ones.

I hate a damn liberal.

I say those scumbags need to be abducted, stuffed into bright orange jumpsuits that have "I am an American!" printed on them in both English and Arabic, shackled and chained, and dumped off in the most likely areas for kidnapping in Iraq. If they get their damned heads sawed off, FINE BY ME!

How about living the rest of his life in some 3rd world shithole where his very existence relies on some warlord who keeps all the UN food for his own troops?

as a self proclaimed drunken redneck, it goes without saying that i've been to a few country concerts...................

i have NEVER, EVER heard anything anti-American at any of said concerts i've attended. (this being a toby keith concert i really CANNOT imagine this happening)

HOWEVER, i can fucking ASSURE YOU had something like this happened at a concert i attended and not only i but numerous others would have put this motherfucker in the hospital at the very least

seeing as how i'm not over there and they probably wouldnt want me if i tried to go over there, it is MY JOB to support and backup everybody that IS over there in my stead

i hope they find this little asshat motherfucker, i hope they publish his name, and i hope he lives in a small town

[DU]Clearly this is a biased report completed without adequate research. If he was unconcious, he wouldn't know the the guy kept kicking him. The reporter was right in protecting the guy, afterall a soldier who would lie about the attack and who started it, too[/DU]

I get so frustrated when I hear stories like this. Nothing like this ever happens when I'm around. Guess it's a good thing. This liberal punk would've paid dearly for his actions.

Shit like that just pisses me off. These people who attack our troops are NOT Americans. If America is so bad, why don't they just get the fuck out? I'd split that hippy faggot's head open with an axe handle, and dare his little commie friends to come and play. But that's just me. I hope that young man is going to be okay...

It's ironic: The freedoms to peacefully assemble and speak one's mind in the process are rights that have been paid for in unimaginable amounts of blood and violence throughout our country's history. For him to attack the very soldiers that provide us with those freedoms shows incredible amounts of indecency and ignorance. If he disagrees with the war, he should find the proper outlet for opposing it rather than attacking the people who provide him with the very freedom to disagree in the first place.

Hope he gets well soon.

My guess is these scumbags were not at the concert to see Toby, but rather were attracted to it just because he is patriotic. I guess they came there and waited around the parking lot looking for a target.

Again, these weren't Toby fans or concert goers IMHO. They came there with the specific purpose of locating and assaulting someone who is a patriotic American. My guess is these folks are Dixie Chicks fans.

Whoever they are, they need their ass kicked so hard that shit comes out of their mouth.

Id like to see them attack me. They should be thrown into a nasty max security prision, and get lots of butt sex.
