Wow man those guys are lucky to be alive.
compelling story and definitely a sad one for sure
although a compelling story and definitely a sad one for sure, IMO the only reason Fox is using this story is to subliminally persuade viewers to feel angry when Obama orders more taxes and background checks for guns.
I don't know how to respond to this because I am literally enraged by what you typed.
dont ever take away from an American Hero what you yourself are not willing to give up.
In case you're not sure what that means, it means dont ever take away the death of a loved one unless you are willing to be the dead loved one!
you, or anyone, brings politics into this one more time, you will be banned for 2 weeks. do you understand?

that is really terrible. this man is a war hero and some punks kill his dog over nothing. the kids are lucky to be alive especially after talking crap to him after they were apprehended.

Saw this on Glenn Beck yesterday. I shed a tear just thinking about someone doing that to one of my dogs, let alone a pet that has helped you heal from such a traumatic experience as Luttrell's.
To Jam, I don't see what your comment has to do with this story. However, before shooting your mouth off, do a little research. In NJ, in order to buy a gun, you have to:
1) Submit an application, fingerprints and fee to your local PD
2) Consent to both criminal and mental health background checks
3) Provide 2 character references who WILL be contacted
4) Provide employment information and supervisor contact info (they WILL be contacted)
5) Wait 3 to 6 months (took me 7 months) for the State and Federal Bureaus of Investigation to complete their background checks.
6) Pick up Firearms Purchaser ID card at your local PD
7) Get fingerprinted (AGAIN)
8) Go to gunstore, fill out paperwork and get yet another background check.
9) Wait up to 3 days for the National Instant Check Service results to come back if they're busy.
10) Drive your long gun home in original box or lockable case in a compartment that is inaccessible to the driver, with ammo in a container in a separate location from the gun.
11) For a handgun repeat steps 1-10 for EACH handgun transaction (purchase/exchange) and add the cost of a mandatory trigger lock to step 10.
...so, basically, I don't think any NJ gun-owner needs "subliminal persuasion" to feel angry about gun "background checks." I'm not being political, just trying to add some perspective.

this is disgusting.
What a bunch of cowards. They're lucky the cops got them before Mr. Luttel did.
lol what I said wasn't that ridiculous... but you're right I shouldn't have brought up politics in a thread like this my bad. I do feel bad for the dude though as an owner of a dog myself that I received for recovering from a broken back (still recovering).

I've been following the story since Glenn Beck started talking about it the other day. Scumbag 1 and Scumbag 2 better get prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I just don't get what would compel someone to kill a defenseless animal like that...it makes no sense. Real tough guys there :rolleyes:
Jam....I'm with Ian, I have no idea how to even respond to what you said. One has nothing to do with the other....I'm TRYING to see the connection but yeah...no dice. You must watch MSNBC or something :rofl: A senseless comment isn't worth being banned over...if you're going to get banned for a political comment at least make it worth your while and relevant, lol.
lol I apologized for bringing it up and I edited my comment so that it can be disregarded for future reference.

Its a very ****ed up thing and those kids deserve whatever is going to happen to them + more, but isnt this a little over the top? He didnt take anything away, he didnt say the kids killed the dog and the guy chased them down just to promote or demote gun ownership. My whole family has lived and lost through ww2 and vietnam and i did not find anything personal about his statement, because the media does work that way. Maybe not in this particular case, but still...

I would sooner harm a human than an animal unless my life depended on it. I dont know how someone could even do that. I, for one, dont have that kind of self control

Geez, I think I would have continued to drive over them after I caught up with them, and or gone back over to check vitals....
God damn, what a screwed up world we live in... I sure hope Texas does what Texas does best and gives them the harshest punishment possible.

I uh.....I am just horrified by seeing this. I'm sure these guys who killed his dog didn't know that he is the lone survivor of the attack in afghan. But none the less, whether it's Joe Schmo, or this great american war hero, there is no justification in the world to why these guys would go around joyriding, and killing dogs. I think the other two should face the same sentence because even if they were just witnesses, they could of stopped them. I really hope that they get wasted in jail for what they've done.
My heart go out to Marcus, adn his family.

my faith in humanity drops another few points....to negative infinity.
it sickens me to think that these...things....deserve to be called human.
Luttrells quote to the ranger as he is taking away the suspects is priceless though. especially since those pieces of **** were talking trash to him thinking they were tough.
