US Marine Throws Puppy Off Cliff - Video

David Mortari, a US Marine from Monroe, Washington, was a nobody until Tuesday, March 4th, 2008, but he is finally getting his 15 minutes of fame, which is really infamy in this case.

The marine in question is shown, in a video that was posted on Youtube.com, allegedly tossing a cute little puppy off of a cliff to its death. That's right, this US soldier tosses a dog, only weeks old, off of a cliff to its death onto the rocks below.

The puppy could be heard yelping as it flew through the air until it crashed onto the rocks below and bounced, then hitting even more rocks.

Youtube quickly removed the video from its site as soon as the disturbing nature of the video was learned. However, thousands of Youtube surfers viewed the video before it was removed.

Since then, other Youtube members have reposted the video, and Youtube has apparently decided that a video of a US soldier tossing a dog off of a cliff to its death is okay remaining on its site.

The original real question was whether the video was real or whether it was a hoax. The puppy is shown being held by the marine by the scruff of its neck and does not appear to move, which could mean that the puppy may have already been dead before it was thrown off the cliff.

But the puppy may also have been alive before being cruelly tossed to its death. Since the incident occurred, the United State Marine Corps. has determined that the video is, in fact, legitimate.

A US Marine Corps spokesman stated that an investigation has been initiated into the incident and hinted that the marine in question will be punished.

The incident was believed to have been filmed while the marine was stationed in Iraq, but he is now stationed in Hawaii. Although his name is not being released by the Marine Corps., many bloggers have identified him as Mortari.

The first video is the disturbing video in question. Do not watch it if you are at all squeamish.

The second video is CNN's report of the incident and shows only portions of the video with the more disturbing sections deleted.

Some Blogger and YouTube videos have been slow to start lately even on a high speed connection. Sometimes you must click the start button twice. Please be patient; the video will begin eventually.

IF I could I would throw that prick soldier and his buddy off the cliff or at least let them dangle awhile video taping it before I would drop him. would be a great Video to send to his parents and family dont you think?


As far as the comment about puppy not moving.. yes it could have already been deceased but two factors seem to be missing. 1. if puppy was dead longer than 8 hours regamortous would of set in and puppy wouldnt of been as supple as it was.. 2. when a puppy is held by scruff of neck its like most animals go into a almost hynotic state and will not struggle so it doesnt mean animal is deceased. Either way the act was intolerable, inhumane and mean. and I hope they (marines corp and military justice system throws the book at him and also I hope he is criminally charged outside service.

How can a dead puppy "yelp" while flying through the air?

And yes, the puppy was submissive and still, but it curls its body up and blinked...not actions of a dead animal. Nice try folks!

Any person involved should suffer consequences...serious ones...to include the idiot who filmed it and the goofball who smiled and made light of it.

And we wonder why people do not want us over there?

What a total mbarrassment to this country, the marines and the family of these idiots.

What a sad state of affairs by a bunch of really thoughtless individuals that have single handedly taken American Pride down a notch or two.

Nice job BOYS;)

I'd like to see a follow up to this story.

The puppy is very much alive, it licks it's mouth in the very beginning. If this had happened in the states he would have been charged. God Bless our troops, but they should not be allowed to get away with criminal acts.

It really hurts me to see that we are funding marines throwing puppies off of cliffs.

This is wrong on so many levels. That puppy didn't do anything to that dumb a** marine and his buddy for them to throw it off the cliff. I think some one should throw their a**es off a cliff and see how much they like it. I think military and civilian charges should be filed against the both of those stupid, ignorant, retarted, sorry excuses for a united states marine corps a**es.

I mean what can I say but wow, We are suppossed to be liberating a country and helping them. Judging by this video it looks as if we are doing more harm that good. Maybe it was just a bad decision he made. Ill say it was but noone in their right mind would do such a thing. I think they should have a televised trial like the one for saddam hussian( or however you spell it)

how many pricks does it take to make a nation look morally inferior?
never know i guess; but it takes a "real man" to throw a puppy off a cliff.
he will get what he deserves and in time will meet the wrath of somebody with real power.
i don't care what ppl say, i can't and won't support the military. specially after this glorious revelation as into the life of an obviously mental marine.
Semper Fi explains it all.

This makes me sick. We as the "most intelligent" form of life have the obligation to protect beings that are not in a position to protect themselves. This soldier took an oath to serve and protect, if it was so easy to pitch a puppy over a cliff it's not that far fetched to believe he could kill a child. I can't put a price on life but then again its not my job. Just remember folks every action has an equal and oposite reaction... Basically Karma's a bitch and it all comes full circle. He deserves everything they give him.

My husband served honorable in the US Marine Corp during Bosnia. My grandfather served honorably during WWII. My father served in the Army just after Vietnam. They are my heros....the Marine in this video is a terrible example of who is serving our country. No one heres about the good, the child hat a Marine saved ... or bombs that were cleared so that villagers would be safe.

Everyone will hear about this. It is another mark against our country. Another thing to laugh at us about. Another thing to make people hate us. What were YOU thinking? You represent this country in and out of uniform. You stand for what is moral about the US. The Marines live by a standard rivaled by none. I am embarrassed to be an American!

It doesn't matter if the animal were alive or dead, what this substandard human did was disgusting (to say the least). He should not be able to wear the uniform. If he's going to do this to a helpless animal - what will he do to the people of Iraq?

Another example of why most human beings hate america.

'marine'?, 'soldier'? I don't think so..........just an american.

Most Englishmen can't wait until the next election here in England because we will have our own government and not an american one, thus: a rapid end to our so-called special relationship and very damaging association with the kind of american filth and cowardice we see in this clip.

No wonder no-one likes americans.

yes it was a terrible act...
but if you judge the U.S.M.C. or The U.S. off this one video, you are sadly mistaken.

and im so sick of those people out there [mainly teens] who just love to disown their Country becuase its not cool anymore to support it in any way shape or form...over a damn puppy or otherwise.

what if it was a snake?
nobody would make such a fuss over it would they?

and im sick of all you Brits thinking your so awesome becuase you can bash America over the internet...
i dare any of you to talk crap about our country in front of any marines face

Do you care about the tens of thousands of african people who died yesterday NO! So why care about one stray puppie.

How can you honestly say you want to throw this marine off a cliff because of the dog. What does that make you? I am a former marine who served in Afghanistan and I do think that this marine was careless enough to put this act on video then he deserves to be punished within The Marines. We take care of our own. it is unfortunate however that this country has turned into a bunch of soft left winged liberals who have forgotten how we became the world's most prosperous and powerful country. i can assure you it was not by shaking hands in japan and germany. When the time comes do you want a marine defending your overweight americanized buttocks or a puppy hugger. it was a mistake that will be dealt with accordingly and we sure don't need any help bringing this to the lime light. let the kid go.

I too am a marine and i think this guy should get his butt kicked as well as thorwn out the marine corps. This moron puts the whole corps in a negative light when we really dont need anymore bad publicity. On the flip side though, violence (in paticular suicide attacks) kill so many people and we see more of a public outcry over the life of a puppy then we do over human beings. Thats another sad fact i've witnessed from this story. Think about it folks. As a side not: i know dozens of marines who took home stray pets (the country is full of them) because they grew emotionally attached to them over the course of their tours. Without question bad appels DO exsist but dont think we are all that heartless, though war can lead some astray.

Gregoir said...

There's a slight difference between throwing a puppy off a cliff and throwing a human being off, the latter being 100 times worse. You people are a bunch of stupid hypocrites. You cry and whine for some stupid little puppy, and shout that America is an evil empire. Fortunately, in real life, people tend to be more rational than on the internet.

Oh and I'm not an American by the way. I live in Europe, but I'm one of the few sane people around here who realize that this extreme anti-americanism is irrational and dangerous

HAHAHA! The good country that is just trying to win the war? Questions: why are you even there in the first place? What is the real purpose? And how do you know when the war is over? When these Middle Eastern countries you invaded have come to peace? Oh yea, I forgot. America will do/set up anything to get what they want. What is it that they want again? THE OIL! These "heroes" that you speak up have become terrorists in the countries that they are invading. What over half of these dumb wit Americans don't realize is that if it wasn't originally posted on youtube we would know nothing about it! Hm, although this is dsgustingly disturbing do some research and find out about the rape and torture of civilians that go on there. America the good guys. That's the biggest oxymoron I've ever heard!

If I EVER SAW that guy....
I would lock him in a room with a dog. Not just A DOG. Dogs. Several RABID pitbulls sharpen their teeth before I let him in. He would suffer. Badly. Then I would take him and SKIN HIM and put him in a vat of salt and lemon. Then put his hands through a wood chipper, and with no skin, give him back to the dogs.

It's called a compasion for life, which clearly, those individuals do not possess. If you seriously think their actions were in some way tied to the power of America, I feel sorry for you...

Anonymous said...

ok retards. these marines may be a little messed up in the head but that is them, probably from COMBAT STRESS. not saying they shouldn't be charged. i hope they spend their time in the brigg and get some freaking help. but have we forgotten about the marine who found an iraqi dog and fought to protect him and save his life? he ended up getting the dog across the line into another country with great risk to himself! so just because a few marines have done something horrible (when they spend months and months in a horrible place) doesn't mean Marines as a whole are bad. they can not control every behavior of every marine, they can only punish the ones that do this stuff when it happens. so look at everything that is being done before you insult the United States Marine Corps. those marines will be taken care of. don't you worry about that. why don't you go support your troops and maybe they will have a reason to stay sane.

OOHRAH and Semper F-ing Fi!

Who cares about one stupid puppy when hundreds of thousands of people have been killed over the course of the war? Besides, millions of animals are euthanized in the U.S. EVERY YEAR. Yes, millions, because people dont get their pets neutered. Again, whats the big deal about one puppy? Lets start having a discussion about whats really important instead of one guy making one dumb move while in uniform. STOP THE WAR!!

Anonymous said...

Its not the fact that its a puppy, its a LIFE! Yes millions of puppies are euthanized moron but its in a humane way, we dont just chuck them off a cliff. Im not saying punish all of america and the marines are all horrible people. I say this man should be punished to the full extent of our underdeveloped animal cruelty laws! I dont care if hes a marine or a 15 year old girl or someones grandparent!! Fact is hes sick in the head and to willfully throw that puppy says the guy is messed in the head and needs help!!

Listen, I'm Responding To All The Posts About "Do you care about the tens of thousands of african people who died yesterday NO! So why care about one stray puppie."
It's Different When You Look At it.
Us Humans, Have Technology To "Cheat" Survival.
But Puppies On the Other Hand Are Domesticated And Reply On Humans, They Trust Us With Their Lives And We Misused Their Trust, Eventually Leading To Deaths Of Innocent Animals.
I'm Talking On Behalf Of All Animals, Bugs, Mammals, Etc.
And When You Say Something Like, Millions Of Innocent Lives Are Killed Each Day In Iraq, WELL THEIR KILLED INSTANTLY, NO PAIN. =\
The Puppies On The Other Hand, God, Seriously.
It's Better To Be Killed Instantly Without Any Pain Then Suffer Pain Then Slowly Walk Towards Your Death And Suffer Before You Die.
[And If You've Shown Peta This, They Wouldn't Like The Way The Puppy Would've Died Just That The Puppies Dead, Search Up On Peta Some More, You'll Uncover The Truth Behind Peta's Innocent Ways]
And I Can HONESTLY Say That I'd Shot The Guy Because Of This Dog, It's Still A Life, No Matter How Big Or Small..
It's Still A Life.
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT !
It's Unfair The Way We Use It Because Of Anothers Humans Death But Not A Dogs, Cats, Bird, Etc.
Only If It's On Purpose, Otherwise.. :)

"David Mortari, a US Marine from Monroe, Washington, was a nobody.."

I think that this entire thing is completely inhumane and insane. I have a good friend that is a marine and I know that he has better manners then that dumb s**t. But the worst part is when it is time that something is done about this...he will only get a slap on the wrists because it isn't a major offence to those a** wipes. I agree with some of the anonymous writers on this page. What I saw was wrong and disturbing, and the puppy was alive. This little clip made my mother cry and I think I will send PETA the website for this.

Anonymous said...

I'm not really sure why everyone is making such a big deal out of nothing. it's just a dog. Nobody seems to make a big deal out of it anytime a marine or soldier dies, but as soon as some useless mutt is put out of it's misery, the whole world finds another reason to gripe and cry about a war that they choose to take no part in. I say that if you don't support decisions such as war, whether you agree with them or not, then leave. Some people in this country actually earn the right to live here and all of the freedoms. Just stop crying over some dumb dog. there are much more important things going on.

There's no way that's real. First off, I find it terribly hard to believe that anybody would do this, especially in such a nanchalant manner. Why would he rub it in our faces by saying, "Oh look - a cute little puppy !" ?

This looks a lot more like a very un-funny joke, than anything else. But then again, if it werent real, this guy would be all over the place assuring everybody that it was a hoax, to clear his, well ... name - I cant say "good name", simply because even if it is a joke, it's disgusting just the same. Dogs rule, and this is amazingly offensive. But if it's real ? This guy should do some hard time, Im talking like at least 2 full years in a real prison - and thats just because Im being realistic. If I had it my way, he'd get like 5 years in jail for this. You dont murder a dog, and expect to get off easy because, well - "it's just dog".

My dog is a full fledged family member, and if somebody murdered him, he'd be charged with murder, in my world.

I didn't think it was possible for a single act to turn me against the U.S. Marine Corps. But this, if true, has done it. If this was a conscious act, these men are a stain and need to be stripped of their uniform and the flag on it... then prosecute them as the civilian pukes that they are. I'm so angry I can't see straight.

Tara - Dont let this tarnish the entire Marine Corps from your perspective. This cockroach is a phony marine, a beast who is masquerading as a Marine, and getting away with it - unfortunately. Like I said before, in my world, ideally this guy would be charged with MURDER. But in the real world, he should get at least 2 solid years in prison. What kind of a scumbag would so something like this ? Its too bad The Marines have no way to vet someone like this out, before they expose themselves to be the monsters that they are. All they can do is get rid of him, only after he has served notice to the rest of us that he is not fit to wear that uniform.

Funny how a lot of you can judge an entire branch of the military... Even the military as a whole for the acts of one person. There are sick people in all walks of life. My husband is in the Marine Corps, but he, and some of his buddies saved 5 tiny abandoned pups on a virginia training base in the middle of winter. I may still have the clippings from the local military paper with the story. They even made sure they had homes (what a mindless thug!)... So the way I figure it, even if you are the biggist puppy lover in the world, the marine corps is still 4 puppies up. I am sure there are more stories like mine... Some service members who gave their lives for people they have never met, children from other countries. But I guess i really am preaching to people who won't listen.

What a horrible thing to do. The only possible reason I can see why he might have done that is, maybe he saw the puppy as an object that represents america, and maybe deep down he is angry with america, maybe he doesn't want to be there fighting a war, so to get back at america he did such an act.

First off, let's start with the military. Yes, these men represent them. But quite obviously, as seen in this video, they are only using the attention to spotlight them. The man shows no emotion or remourse for the terrible actions his collegues commited. Instead, he simply says the normal mumbo jumbo military speal. That being said let's stop focusing on military because they're eating the attention up.

Secondly, it doesn't take a P.H.D. to conclude that these men have a sugnificant mental issue. I've read that it may have been a form of copeing. I find that excuse to be a fool's escape. Not only should these men be discharged for their evil deeds, but locked up, only after losing a couple fingers. There should be action taken against these men and they should be commited before they decide to start throwing humans off of cliffs. Or here's an even better idea... Fly a plane into a building!

To the man who stated he is a former marine himself and that the military deals with their own let me just respond with this...

Anonymous said...

Shame on all participating in this act. They clearly have mental issues to go thru with such acts. It may be just a puppy but this does not mean everyone can go around killing innocent creatures. Who cares anyway, the puppy's dead, he will be dealt with when his time comes, and he will be punished in this life or after death by god. If something bad happens in his life after this, he'll be saying to himself "should'nt have murdered the cute little puppy". Nobody has the right to take away life except god himself, be that a human or a dog.

And if it is a hoax, still pretty sick to want to even make a joke like this and anyone who finds it funny must be screwed in the head and good luck to them. But it looked pretty real to me...

I can't get worked up over the immature Marine letting off a little steam killing the mutt and neither should any of you. Be consumed with rage that zionists control American media and politics murdering Iraqis/Bosnians/Vietnamese and many others over the years. Look at the Israeli Supreme Court building, funded by the Satanic worshiping Rothchilds, built to honor the coming antichrist. Soon troops will be killing Americans for not taking bogus shots or a chip. Jesus warned us of the signs and many scoff. I'm saddened that so many are fooled by wicked men.

This is wrong and disgusting, but think of the people who have died from starvation in Africa, much more painfully. What in God's name has this country come to...

All you people talking crap stfu. Worry about cleaning your room or working your secure comfy lil job. I was in the Marine Corps Personally when I was in Iraq we killed a lot of dogs that were wandering onto our forward operating base causing distraction, bringing in fleas and crappin all over the place , its tactical and some things just need to be done. Odds are the Marine in this video thought it would be better suited if the dog was away from his patrol, maybe it was causing a distraction to other Marines , maybe it was yelping and giving away their position who knows , the fact that he threw it well I think the dog got the point to stay away, could he have walked it away and placed it somewere, yes, but then he might possibly expose himself to sniper fire , look there are a lot of ways to look at things. Our job as Marines is killing its what we train for and do best not to mention people trying to kill us daily, our friends dying in front of our faces or civilians gettin blown to pieces and little kids taking shrapnel from some idiot suicide bomber ,assassinations, murder, friends legs getting blown off , all this on a daily basis, you know after experiencing all this watching this video just doesnt have the same effect personally from a tactical standpoint I would have just killed the animal right there would have just carried on and forgot all about it. All you people saying this Marine should fry try and look at things from a different perspective or just stfu pick up a rifle and stand a post.

hey first of all to all the ones who say "who cares about a stupid puppy" and " well millions of people are dieing" i have this to say give ME the choice between a baby or an adult and a puppy or dog ... I GUARENTEE i will pick the puppy .... people are cuel and the ONLY reason for wars, devestation, fights, and everthing. While dogs and animals are just happy to please and happy to go their own way. PEOPLE SHOULD JUST VANISH OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH... and i know that includes me but still... and as for those marines i seriously think they should be brought to justice... if u pick on something weaker than you... then that just goes to show how pethetic you are as a person..."oh... look how tough and cool i am ... i can take out a tiny puppy...oh i am so mocho"... give me a break that just means you have no BALLS and that you are WEAK

To the last anonymous commenter: Who do you think you are kidding, dude? If it was a stuffed dog, then why was Mortari drummed right out of the Marine Corps? Hmmm?

Unknown said...

you guys are all wrong he did wrong ok, that means he was a stupid idiot it doesnt mean americans are stupid alright im not an american but i respect them and what they do to help they rest of the world just that guy right there proved that some people are sick its no reason to go blaming one race or another marines have honor and respect for all life that is likely why they joined marine corps. to protect it spot douching around and get it straight! he was stupid but thats not a reason for dissing i say he was stupid and deserves punishment till he regrets what he did may be worse but he deserves it

Unknown said...

what the hell is up with this oh my god that suck's i love dog's i hate anyone who hurts them and umm a stuffed dog doesn't make a cracking sound when it hits rocks (sorry) bouts the image but think about what i said

Anonymous said...

sry but i cant seem to see how this is real. the thing doesnt move. idk how the marine corps came to the conlusion that it was alive by that footage... it shows an unmoving puppy. someone said it blinked and curled up its body... ?? what! i see no blinking and it definetely doesnt move... except when he pulls his arm back. sound also sounds fake. could have very easily been added. anyway. not saying it is impossible that its real, just sayin that the video isnt really that difinitive.

it was probably sick.

usually they just shoot them, maybe he just wanted to get creative.

i dont care who you are, you dont do that to animal, you dont, I dont see what him being a marine has to do with anything, He's just a disgusting excuse for a man, I dont care if he spends his life trying to make up for it, That doesnt excuse what he did, Im not the best person in the world, Im selfish, and lots of other things, but I would never ever, do something so horrible in all of my life

You can't judge a nation by the actions of one or two sick people. It would be a fair statement to say that Americans, as a whole, are sickend by the actions of this sick, screwed up person. He is in need of serious mental health help.

I came across this video accidentally while searching for a charity to participate in for our soldiers. I'm so sickened I can barely breathe. For years I've only particated in animal charities but this year I thought it was time to thank our troops. But thank you David Mortari for setting me straight. I will continue to support these poor, all loving , beautiful beings and say to GO TO HELL with sick bastards like you. I truly hope the next casualty they announce on the news is David Mortari, from Monroe Washington. and I hope that death comes from live be-heading...I think thats suitable you pathetic looser!

Narharhar said...

Ooh! A fine throw! Why so serious? Kids stomp on bugs and men go hunting, just for sport, all the time. Whoopdy-do. You shouldn't hate America just because some American guy wants to kill. Violence happens everywhere (in your country) in much worse forms. People murder, rape, torture and enslave HUMAN BEINGS. And yet you turn your head away and scream about a puppy. It had a quick death anyways. If I was there, I would've been chucking puppies off the cliff right with him- a dude in that hell needs an entertaining break.

this is sickning, how can he live know that the fact he threw a little innocent puupy to his death?it didnt even have a chance in life.. im soo pissed right now, i HATE animale cruelity.. RIP little puppy

well i can honestly say, i cant believe our soldiers in iraq are doin this and this guy is just sick and doesnt desereve 2 serve my country i dont want people to think my country is like this he dosent deserve to be a marine i thought soliders tried 2 make things better he is just a sick F****. i dnt even know him and i hate him... he needs 2 b thrown under a jail or maybe off a cliff......sick F***

MSz.NUNU said...

This video is very upsetting indeed! I cannot believe a person would even be capable of doing this...ESPECIALLY someone like a marine who is suppose to set a good example and represent America! Instead him and his fellow friend would be so bored to do an act like this and record it and then decide to show it to the whole world! Wow the rest of the Marines are probably so proud of you...

this made me laugh

the puppy couldnt have already been dead if you could hear it yelping as it went over the cliff! this video is just of a twisted sick minded man wanting to hear a newborn puppy cry and fall to its death!and if you listen to the first video i wonder who the dog barking in the background was...hmmm...it may have been the mother dog if i were the mother dog i would bite his rear or we could throw his kid off a cliff and make him watch now that is a fair punishment or we could throw him off a cliff and make his mom and dad watch telling them "LOOK WHAT YOU DID.....YOU RAISED A SICK CHILD"

Personally...I find this cruel towards animals.! What did that puppy do to them?....Nothing at all and it gets thrown off the cliff... My god....seriously those two guys shouldn't even be out there anymore....they should be in jail for the internity for animal cruelty! Thats what I think!~

I read most of the comments, and i just want to say get over it... yeah what he did was wrong, never the less he is a marine. These men must be heartless..They fight and kill as a living.. You think when we drooped the bombs on japan that all the cute little puppy's were safe.Hell no. I rather have men like him fighting for us then some push over, animal rights, flower picking person..

Wait a sec can you see how the marine paused for a sec he might of given the puppy to another person and thrown something that looked like it

I understand that what the three marines did is completely unacceptable. However, saying things like "GO TO HELL" and "I hope that death comes from live be-heading.." is a little bit harsh, don't you think. On top of that it does not make the person who said it look any better then the marines, well maybe just a little bit, but not much. On top of saying this, you did so revealing your name, and where you reside (not necessarily your address.)

If he threw a snake or a rat off the cliff, the video would more then likely not have gotten as much attention, but since it was a "cute" animal that people don't have a tenancy to fear, still being as "alive" as the puppy. Hell, it could have been a hamster, it still would not have gotten nearly as much attention. I'm not saying this out of a hatred of dogs, I have have 5 different pet dogs in my 18 years of life, usually having 2 at a time. On top of this, every one of my Aunts and Uncles also have between one and two pet dogs. What I'm saying is because it was a puppy, this video got attention.

Finally, to "Anonymous: November 9, 2009 8:05 PM," in saying, "...He is in need of serious mental health help." I completely agree. He is clearly mentally unable to make right decisions, thus being "Sick."

That's just the way I perceive things in this situation.

Random said...

This is Utterly and completely cruel.Why would a US Marine say "Oh Look a cute puppy", then THROW it off of a cliff.That is very much of abuse to that puppy, it probably died.Let that Soldier have bad situations.Hopefully he does.

1st, I need to say that I, in NO way, Condone what this guy did. I DO think that it was cruel, and uncalled for (If it was in fact, a real dog). But, seriously folks? I think everyone is overreacting in their responses on what the punishment should be for the guy in question.
This guy is a Marine. Killing without Mercy and Emotion is what WE, as Tax-Paying citizens, Pay our government to teach our guys how to do to stay alive. Drill Instructors get paid Specifically to turn our guys into Killers. And they are Killers, so that we may live, and have the freedom and rights that we have, and then aparrantly so we can also turn on them when they do something stupid. Something which, if Average Joe Blow had done, would have been mostly over-looked, and then shrugged off by the public. The only reason that it got so much attention is because it was a Marine, and I guess we just have higher pedastools that our Marines must climb to (In order to recieve our Support and Approval).
You all seem to be forgetting that our Marines are still Just People, like us. They Do stupid things and they Make mistakes. The only difference is that when a Marine makes a mistake, people often Die. So to everyone that posted comments saying, "They hope he dies", "He should rot in hell", "Has a miserable life", "Throw HIS baby over the cliff(?) (Who's the sicko now?)", etc... Are you kidding me?!?
The Marine Corp Wasn't created to be an example for the people who reside in the United States. The Corp was created because our government wanted "Super Human Soldiers" who knew ONE thing, and ONE thing only, and that is to KILL. You're getting this upset over a puppy, but what about all of the men (And possibly women) that this same Marine has probably killed in the line of duty, in order for you to HAVE the freedom to cast such hatred upon him? Because if you're trying to say that killing the puppy was wrong because "ALL Life is Sacred and should be Protected", then you REALLY need to think about THAT for a minute or two (Or TEN)...
I also have to wonder, and then ask myself: What if this guy was an excellent Marine? What IF he was the best thing that we had over there fighting for, and defending, us. WHAT IF his "Destiny", for lack of better words, was to save us all and somehow end the war? If he gets "Thrown off a cliff and Killed" (As some people seem to want to happen VERY badly), or even just Discharged from the Marine Corps b/c of what he did, then I can only wonder about 1 thing... "Are Americans really so Ignorant, that they are willing to risk losing a war, which would take with it every ounce of freedom and EVERY right that we have worked so hard to earn over the years... Over a DOG...?"
Do you honestly think for a second that people from other countries (People who are working relentlessly and mercilessly to take over our country and Kill us all) are going to be offended by THIS Single Act of cruelty? After EVERYTHING that we have done... What about the acts of cruelty we performed in Japan, Korea, Vietnam...? Do I REALLY need to continue on with this? Or do you catch my drift? Somehow... I just don't think that they are going to be upset with our country over the killing of this puppy... But then again, that's just my opinion...

ok people, i dont believe in animal cruelty, but its a dog. you have to remember these guys are in a country where people strap bombs onto children and send them twards the soilders. they deal with a lot of emotional and physical stress. i'd like to see what you would do when u had to deal with that kind of stress. im not condoning what they did, but i also wouldnt condone sending those boys to the gallows for what they did either.

This soldier's act should not reflect on the Marines in any way. He would be the same sick person in any invironment. To those who say it's just a puppy - no, there is no "just" with a horrific death to an animal that feels pain and fear for no reason other than amusement. It's the nature of the act, the mental state of the guy who willfully and cheerfully put a helpless baby animal to a brutal death. What's next for him - torturing then murdering children? Most criminals who sadistically murder started with torturing and killing animals - the facts are there. We are disturbed by a senseless painful death that reminds us once again how terrible humans can be. Thanks to all those soldiers who befriend animals in a combat zone. I saw them too - in my year in Viet Nam. They give us hope and make us feel good about being human.

That puppy was on of the specifically trained suicide bomber puppies created by Osama Bin Ladin and his elite group of terrorists. They were used to go up to soldiers and become a distraction. A single suicide bomb was placed inside their body and when someone petted them they exploded.

i personally do not think this video is real. i am sure allot of people hope this video isn't real. The dog may have been a fake or already dead. the dog whimpering may have just been the other soldier. either way its horrible.

We could throw blame around all day; but the fact remains that this desison was made by one man. Weather or not he is an American or a Marine is irrelavent.

Everyone is capable of terrible things; but the desiosn to do these things is up to one's self.

This man took a life; even the life of a puppy holds meaning. No death is more important than another.

You were once apart of this world puppy and even though I never knew you; I will miss you.
