Disgusting behavior by U.S. service man.... WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISKPretty horrible video here. Apparently there's some debate as to whether or not it's a real dog in the video but that's the most realistic looking fake dog I've ever seen. Hopefully these guys will be spending some time behind bars. Seems to me that we ought to leave Woody Allen alone and write more letters about this sort of thing,

Forget seeing anything I don't want to see this sort of thing. If it is as bad as you guys say then there should be somewhere to write to so they can be punchished for their actions. Rotten bastards!!!

A lot are saying it is a fake puppy and a puppy wouldn't yipe like that. It looks very real to me and any dog would yelp while being hurled over a cliff.
I am sure they are getting into some sort of trouble.

 If anyone feels the need to view what happened, just turn on your TV. It's on all the news channels. At least in my area it is. I have no desire to watch such things so I just turned the channel when they announced it. ** If these servicemen actually did what is claimed, you can bet they will be punished, Cindy. As far as I'm concerned, just the thought of doing something so horrific or 'joking' about doing something so horrific & making a video about it, these folks need some serious evaluation. They certainly don't need to be in possession of any weapons.  Cindy

I constantly find myself asking what the hell is this world coming to? I see almost everyday on the news... Killings all over, murders, suicides, animals being tortured, people torturing people, sexual acts on little kids, just seems like alot now days. You can't even discipline your kids without having the police breathing down your neck, teachers can't teach a classroom of kids because you have a class clown and trouble makers in it. I think in my own opinion people have loss that sense of respect for themselves and others including animals.

A poster on another forum wrote:
David Motari's boss in the Marines is Major Chris Perrine, call him and tell him your thoughts about his underling if u like ...808-257-8841 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I found this information on another forum. Apparently David Mortari also had a web sight or blog where people (from all over the world) commented on his behavior. I think that it is closed now and only open to his friends. If anything...by the time that this ordeal is addressed, people will know that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated anymore. The other grinning clown is just as bad for not stopping this guy from killing one very scared little puppy. There are other accounts where "our" service men in Iraq are shooting dogs (Iraqi's pets) for fun. As the dogs scream and try to run away...you just hear laughter. What a disgrace to our military...I hope that everyone of them is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The video's I saw were appalling to say the least. Very disturbing, and such a bad shadow cast over the reputations of the countless good soldiers and marines from the United States. http://www.infowars.com/?p=573http Last edited by Feather; 5th March 2008 at 01:47 PM.

Hawaii Marine investigated over Iraq puppy-abuse video
By Gina Mangieri A Hawaii-based Marine is at the center of a military investigation over a video posted on the internet that appears to show him abusing an animal. The video of apparent cruelty to a puppy has caused widespread outrage among many who have seen it, including the Marines. KHON2 will not show this video in its entirety, but we caution viewers the content may be disturbing. On the video a Marine appears to pick up and then throw a stray puppy. "That was mean. That was mean, Motari," one Marine says to the other Marine after throwing the animal. The person is identified on the video and in subsequent internet postings as a lance corporal stationed at Marine Corps Base Hawaii in Kaneohe. "This is a shocking and deplorable video that is contrary to the high standards that we set for every Marine," said Maj. Chris Perrine, spokesperson for the Kaneohe base. The Marine Corps has launched an investigation to determine whether the man on the video is their Marine who returned last October from a 7-month tour of duty in Iraq. "Very disgusting,” said dog owner Jason Cerventes. “Who would throw a puppy, in Iraq especially, and throw it on the ground?" Whoever is involved with the conduct and posting of this video could face serious consequences including confinement or discharge from the Marine Corps. Some web viewers angrily lashed out with death threats. "Certainly there's a lot of outrage and a lot of people are upset about it. I think every Marine is upset about this video," Perrine said. “We will investigate and take appropriate action and make sure our Marine is safe as well." The Marines are examining whether the video is authentic or if it might not be what it appears. Regardless of whether it is real or a hoax, the Marines say the posting is unacceptable. "That is mistreatment of a puppy,” Perrine said. “That is a violation of anybody's standards, and the Marine Corps sets extremely high standards." Many upset over the video offer praise for the nation's other military men and women. “There are good guys there,” said dog owner Aileen Ho. “They take care of animals, take care of people who need help, so you cannot just from one bad apple say everybody's bad." "There are many examples of Marines who adopt pets and bring them back from Iraq, and demonstrate their compassion on a daily basis,” Perrine said. Some we spoke with expressed concern over the mindset of the man in the video. “If he would do that to a puppy, what would he do to his kids or family?” Ho said. The Marine Corps assures they have stress and anger-management intervention programs in place before, during and after deployment. Story Updated: Mar 3, 2008 at 8:28 PM HST

I meant to post the link but I had just woken up and apparently the "right click - paste" part of my brain wasn't working that early in the morning. Sorry about that. I won't post the link because it seems that if anyone actually wanted to see the video it should be easy enough for them to find on their own.
I'm glad to see the uproar over this; but what's scarier for me is that these guys, after going to war, are going to be our policemen, nurses, firefighters etc. I think that the U.S. Gov't needs to do a better job of helping these soldiers reintegrate back into society after they come back from being deployed.

This is his apology.
People have choices in life. It is in these times...when one doesn't seem to care... that it is most critical (for anyone capable of taking the life of a defenseless being) that the right choices are made. http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/1...dmotarihi9.jpg Last edited by Feather; 5th March 2008 at 03:49 PM.
