A pro-war viewpoint, quoted with permission:
War for oil? Ok by me. Human rights abuses aren't enough to justify a war.
And this isn't taken out of context - the surrounding text was to back it up. A later reply confirmed that yes, the writer regards their own comfort as more important than the lives of others.
I'm kind of stunned by this - left staggered, mentally, unable to respond to something so alien to my own morality. There's something wrong with a world where someone can grow up thinking like that.
