Baye McNeil: 'Always endeavor to do ... what you love to do'

In the final scenes of Aaron Sorkin's powerfully written film "A Few Good Men," one of the U.S. Marines on trial for the murder of a fellow serviceman is bewildered as to why he has not been cleared of all charges after his commanding officer admits ordering the attack. "We did nothing wrong," cries Pvt. Downey, to which his older, wiser co-accused penitently replies, "Yeah, we did." The realization of guilt by Lance Cpl. Dawson neatly encapsulates the film's central theme: that bullying and the use of physical punishment to discipline innocent people, or to teach them a lesson, is never justified, regardless of the motive.
