Default U.S. Marine throws cute puppy over cliff as other Marines watch and laugh

Hi. Gosh, I realize it's been a long time since I've posted here (loving your Wonder Woman, Ms. Simone), but I just saw something that really pissed me off and I came here to post about it, as I know the folks who post here are an exceptional crowd.

I was just watching the news, and there's a video up on You-Tube (sorry, but I won't link to it) showing a Marine in Iraq holding a really cute little puppy, probably about as big as my two hands, by the scruff of the neck and then flinging him over the edge of a rocky cliff while other Marines watch and laugh.

You hear about all kinds of atrocities committed during a war, but there's something about this that's got me so mad I'm shaking. Dogs are innocent and loyal and want nothing more than to please us god damned humans. And this rotten excuse for a human being flings a puppy off a cliff.

Is this what we're to expect out of our Marines these days?

Please forgive me for posting such an ugly story, but this is killing me.

Fuck... I just saw the video and wish nothing but harm on the bastard.

Here's hoping his CO identifies him and is ruthless with animal abusers.

I thought you were making this up.
Until I searched for it and you're NOT.

Goddamn....I couldn't even watch the whole thing, and it's only seconds long. SO FUCKING WRONG. I hope they get torn new assholes.

I'll reserve judgment until it's determined, for sure, that the vids not faked. You know, like 95% of the vids on the web.

I did some "research" and apparently, the video is being investigated by the marine corps in hawaii, not Iraq. The man in the video is identified and his phone numbers and personal information have apparently been circulating on the internet. Good.

It's almost certainly real, especially since the guy and his family have had plenty of opportunity to deny it, and they haven't.

Just disgusting. I hope the son of a bitch is in for a karmic bitchslap.

Personal information and phone number, you say? I know a bunch of kids who'd love to ask him some questions about "Battletoads 3."

Assuming it's an authentic video, what a douche.

Assuming it's not, still, what a douche.

If it's real - which appears to be the case - then what a prick. The guys filming and laughing, too. Let's hope everyone connected with this gets what they fucking deserve.

I'm not an animal lover, but I find it disturbing they don't seem to force honor into soldiers along with all the other crap they brainwash them into.

I don't know if they still hold the "hook" ceremony but that was disturbing as well. I mean, not the ceremony cause willing adults no one gets hurt it's all fine , but that it's done on the job and the women are expected to accept it is pretty depressing and unclassy.

People who hurt animals are on my shit list. That's just the way it is.

It makes sense that most serial killers started out torturing animals. Fuck them. They are defenseless! They depend upon us. Good god. What kind of fuck-wit is going to hurt a defenseless animal?!

This kind of thing really disgusts me.

I don't know. We live in a culture that doesn't really value human life... or at least its secondary to our need to be entertained. Haven't you seen Hostel?
