Thank you David For protecting our country and risking your life for the freedom of Americans!

You got your facts right though, 1 in 4 make up the homeless population… Yes, the weak ones who can’t handle their actions… maybe they should have never signed up ey? No one is tugging you there anymore… my pops was drafted, he dint run like a sissy. He died in his home at 87 years old, mentality in check, with his name attached to countless deaths, and front row seats to the death of his many friends. He had 4 dogs. What makes him different from mr.puppycliffman? Well… simple… he was not a fucking psycho.

Its really comforting knowing our american tax dollars are funding psychotic sick games like these. Janet, is it so comforting to you? You must wipe your ass with Franklin’s no?

What an embarassment to our country… showing this clear cut whimp bringing harm to something so innocent, and helpless. Wow, the fucking turban heads must be laughing their asses off. Couldnt bag a terrorist, so he goes and kills something that cant fight back. WTF?

Janet you lost me the moment you went off on your ridiculous conspiracy tangent about … hmm… well I didnt read that far into it, it was mere gibberish, and so off topic that the badwidth cops should send you a bill. Because people want to see this scumbag punished, that makes them unamerican? Please, get the hell off of our high horse, and feel this amazing emotion called compassion. I have no compassion for those who harm innocents. Animals, humans, etc.

Like I said, I have no compassion for scumbags, for non-humans… seeing him hung would bring tears of joy to my eyes. If he is so fucking damged, as he claims… then just finish the fucker off, he’s too weak for this country apparently. I find him to be useless, like he found the puppy to be. Throw him from a cliff… I’ll supply the push.

I know this is not going to change anyones opinions, but I had to say it even if I am a year late on this topic.

As for Anon’s (the village idiot) post….. The worst thing I have personally done would be not tipping enough or not calling on someone’s birthday. Throwing a dog off a cliff couldn’t compare to what most normal individual’s heat-of-the moment occurences. Anon, your response was lame beyond belief.

Someday, someday.

he obviously still has zero remorse and apparently is more ‘sorry’ about the bad press than he is for what he did.

this guy is a psycho and a disgrace to the uniform. i hope the Marine Corp is smart enough to court martial him and boot his ass out of the Corp…they should also make the world aware of his mail forwarding address.

what a coward. ‘Combat Fatigue’. he’s a douche bag who probably never even discharged his weapon in combat. he was probably guarding some pile of rocks, got bored, and for shits and giggles he and his homo lover in the video decided to throw a puppy off a cliff.

this guy is pathetic.

I’m not sure what bothers me more, a puppy being thrown off a cliff or how loudly people show their ugly side when they see a point of view that’s difficult to argue with.

I would like everyone reading this to think of the worst thing you have personally ever done, hopefully that will give you a little bit of perspective. And don’t lie to yourself, you all have something.

BTW, I’m not defending the marine in any way. Throwing puppies is bad.

I read this coward’s so-called apology at http://www.davidmotari.net and it made my stomach churn.

Ugh.

But if he did it, it was a bad thing, and the UCMJ will cover it no doubt.

DW, I agree. I should have clarified it before, but I’ll do so now. I have sympathy for all of our troops who have to be in a country they never asked to be sent to, for a war I feel is completely unjustified. I simply didn’t — and still don’t — have sympathy toward a marine because he was being verbally criticized for what I felt to be a cruel and unnecessary action. I believe he should be reprimanded by the USMC, no more.

Don’t let time forget this atrocity. He must PAY.

If I ever find my way out to Hawaii, or wherever that POS is living, I’d hunt him down.

I agree with you that this war is illegal and that it is a war of aggression. I also agree that soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen are in an untenable situation, and that the citizenry bears some responsibility just like we do for poverty and crime. This is a republican form of government and there was no referendum on this war. A group of militaristic Republicans accompanied by sycophant Democrats got us into this mess, and the citizens did everything they could in 2006 to end this debacle. More might be done this year.

With that said, everyone lives by an ethical code mandated by the law. Just like the speeder caught by the police can’t argue that others do it and that the police don’t catch everybody, you can’t convincingly argue that because you faced trying circumstances that others can’t criticize or hold your conduct up the standards agreed upon internationally. Ad hominem attacks on my service won’t help you much either.

I agree with Patty C that you may benefit from some counseling and participating in the discussions here. We have many points of view on this blog and yours is certainly interesting, needed, and, in my view, welcome.

You are obviously quite agitated, and you need to open up \and talk to your ‘peoples’

Find some place-warm and caring, if you can.

Or,come here once in a while!

Ahhhh…. ok, tough guy.

“you, your participating comrades, and your officers are classic war criminals.”- ya don’t say? But then again isn’t launching a war of aggression a war crime? Do me a favor, cite that law and tell to your congress person how Bush broke it by launching his own war of aggression, see if flightsuit Bush “cooperate['s] in the investigation.”

Yeah, let’s prosecute those soldiers and marines who turn there soul’s inside out for an ignorant self-righteous citizenry. But then again i guess it’s our fault for trusting that America and its citizens wouldn’t stand by as we’re sent off to fight in an unnecessary and illegal war. Stupid marines.

Then you hinted that you served in some capacity, (coast gaurd, perhaps?) but this quote makes clear it was likely in some rear echelon capacity. “soldier you have a sworn obligation to report the officer who gave the order and to offer to cooperate in the investigation,” Yeah, ok. Anyone have commandants phone number?

We don’t fight for an oath and we don’t fight for a slogan, hell nowadays we don’t even fight for you… we fight for the person on the left and the person on the right, for my crew. We do what we think is necessary (right or wrong, but we try to be right) to keep ourselves, but more importantly our friends alive, so that they don’t come back all fckd up as a triple amputee at age 21. And if its punishment you seek, don’t worry once we get home we always provide the conscience… in spades. And I’m sure the fact that one in four homeless persons are veterans has nothing to do with anything.

You know i don’t really know how i really feel about IVAW’s tactics. But you need to wake up, this war has kinda been going on for a while now, http://ivaw.org/wintersoldier

and btw if I’m a war criminal I would say you’re no better that an upstanding German citizen- living next to a concentration camp. If you want to play this game, its not only me and the military who are war criminals it’s this leadership and this citizenry; yes, you too. The military is under civilian authority, America is in charge of it and responsible for it just as much as is the service man or women. We go where you tell us to.

Oh, and please don’t call me “soldier”, its one of our agitations. thx.

However, it is not directed toward him, his unit, or any other military installation, per se, AND in terms of the recent and ongoing effort, we would like to represent that we are on HIS side – indubitably!

You say, “I simply want them to behave as civilized men engaged in war.” What idealist world are you living in? We had orders to light up any vehicle approaching us that doesn’t stop quick enough, which occurred often, but no don’t you go be mean to that puppy because yeah thats what would be uncivilized and upset people. Now lets fire a couple HEAT rounds in that building and see who comes out.

It might be hard for you to believe but many times we just don’t give a sh*t because in war life is cheap, apparently sometimes cheaper than a puppies’.

you mean the character of violence and the killer mentality I/We pro actively instill in our marines? I would never deny that we do “kind and humane things,” of course we do. But we’ll kill you just as quickly. We go hand out candy and gifts to Iraqi children and then go out and kill people. Its what we do. He killed a puppy. So what?

Is America really that surprised that killers a capable of killing animals for shi*s and giggles? Welcome to the real world where even little cute puppies aren’t safe, who would’ve thought?

yeah, for some odd reason dead Iraqi children bother me more then a cute little puppy being thrown off a cliff.

Comments like these… “AND Mortari is one of only a handful of bad seeds”…. show the disconnection of what actually happens in war and the fantasy world Americans live in where killers have a tender heart and wouldn’t hurt a puppy but we’ll sure blow the fck out people that don’t slow down fast enough. Soliders and Marines do cruel things in war, it ALWAYS happens, because war by definition is cruel, the problems are not with the “bad apples” but with those that send these kids to war.
