"I come in peace.Illegally Canning A Legit Whistle-Blower?
I didn’t bring artillery.
But I am pleading with you, with tears in my eyes:
If you f--- with me, I’ll kill you all."
Newman had the quote tattooed on his arm prior to signing on with Union Pacific after his hitch in the Corps.
As published:
"The complaint states that a fellow employee photographed his arm.Reportedly, Newman claims that his employer is using the offending tattoo as an excuse to fire him as retribution for him contacting the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hotline in regards to hazards along the railway tracks.
According to the complaint, Union Pacific Railroad’s policy is not to discipline people for offensive tattoos unless they are directed to cover the ink and fail to comply, and Newman was never asked to cover up his tattoo."
The Former Marine alleges he was initially discouraged from making formal complaints to the Union Pacific hotline.
As reported:
"Newman first filed a complaint with OSHA in September 2010.Although it's been two years since his termination, "Newman is seeking a jury trial and compensation for loss of pay and benefits, incurred medical expenses, mental anguish, punitive damages and legal fees."
Following an OSHA investigation in 2011, the Department of Labor found reasonable cause that Union Pacific Railroad was in violation of the Federal Railroad Safety Act, which protects employees who report violations of railroad safety."

As reported by The Washington Post:
"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years, because they didn't wear a veil.But the self-admitted brawler backs up his tough talk with actions.
You know guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway.
So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot 'em."
Besides being decorated for personal heroism in combat, the Christian Science Monitor has reported that during the Iraq War:
"Mattis would even sometimes go on missions with his troops, sharing the risks that he was asking them to take."
