Så det kommer vara beväpnade civila klädda amerikanska soldater i Halmstad tex, och de kan inte fällas för brott, de kan köra berusade och skjuta folk på krogen osv? Ser inte hur det här skulle kunna gå fel?
"No, soldiers don't carry their weapons when off duty and out of uniform. And in many cases, they don't carry their weapons even when on duty and in uniform. Weapons are stored in the unit armory, and drawn as needed."
"Yes, U.S. soldiers can be arrested and prosecuted if they commit a crime on foreign soil. However, the jurisdiction and legal process for prosecuting U.S. soldiers for crimes committed abroad can be complex and may involve negotiations between the U.S. government and the government of the country where the crime occurred.
In some cases, the U.S. military may have jurisdiction over the soldier and may choose to handle the case through the military justice system. However, in other cases, the local government may assert jurisdiction and prosecute the soldier through their own legal system. The U.S. government and the government of the foreign country may need to negotiate and come to an agreement on how the case will be handled.
Additionally, U.S. soldiers who commit crimes on foreign soil may also face consequences under U.S. law, such as charges of violating the Uniform Code of Military Justice or federal criminal laws. The specific consequences and legal process will depend on the circumstances of the case and the relevant laws and agreements between the U.S. and the foreign country."
Dock, i vissa fall så som amerikanska soldaters våldtäkt av japanska minderåriga flickor utanför baser i Japan har dock lett till att soldaten skickats hem till det egna fängelset. Likadant när USA hade baser i Filippinerna och nyligen den soldat som betedde sig störande i Sydkorea som skulle skickas hem.
