Marine throws dog

[System_Error]

There's even a video on youtube of it. I can't believe someone could do that!

That link is considerably less useful than you might have thought.

Wow. I swear that link worked when i posted it... I changed it.

[Foxer]

YouTube has removed the video.

[Shaggy Hiker]

Change has been particularly hard on System Error in this thread.

The video can be watched here on this swedish news site.

How mean.

The video is too grainy to see if the puppy got up afterwards.

Being in the US military must really freak with your head.

Thanks for those cheesy ads too.

I'd be surprised this video was real, for a few reasons:
1) My brother is over there and its hard enough to get a phone call from him, much less a video that could get posted on YouTube.
2) Any marine would know they would jeopardize their career by posting these on the internet.

That said, dogs will be disposed of during missions since they do bark and give away positions, but this clearly doesn't look to be the case here, and they certainly are neutralized by conventional means.

Maybe it was a terrier-ist?










Okay, I'll get my hat and coat....

A friend of mine came home from a tour with several videos of blowing up IEDs. Not all that hard to get, really.

In my opinion, this appears more like a staged stunt of the political left than anything.

[SurfDemon]

Well, if no-ones going to laugh at my joke I guess I'd better be serious

It is completely irrelevant that it is a soldier on the video. If this was a teenager, it would be equally disturbing. It might be a hoax/joke, in which case not to worry. But if not, then I suspect their life will be a living hell from now on (and deservedly so).

Have any proof?

In any case, the dog doesn't look alive or may even be stuffed, the picture is grainy and the animal doesn't move at all. In the end it might just be some dudes making a morbid joke.

If that's the case, then it shouldn't be such a big deal.

If this is real, then the marine should be thrown into a ditch then shot

There was similar footage of some English Yoots throwing a cat out of a tower block a while back. They threw the cat out 4 or 5 times before it finally died. Sadly, it definitely wasn't a hoax. Happily, said yoots now can't go near their own neighbourhood because the other kids from the area beat them up whenever they see them.
