Spoken by someone who obviously hasn't served. Marines are no more trouble than any other young man of that age. They are just looking to let off some steam. The community has no problem taking the tax revenue that is generated by the base and the Marines so why should they treat them differently when it comes to Saturday night. As a former Marine and Wilmington resident I can truthfully say I've seen both sides and it's time to end this practice. People shouldn't let thier views of the war dictate public policy. I'll be surprised if this even gets posted.
The truth about downtown.
