    I'm not a mushyheaded animal-lover but I must agree with this. It's pretty well established that stuff like this is a sign of something deeper.....something you don't want to see in a man you arm for war unless you are fighting a "gloves off" war which we aren't allowed to do anymore.

    I wouldn't have dishonorably discharged him, but I would let a hundred puppies piss on him every day until he's out of the military. I'd show him the video every day, and I'd print out a screencap of it and place it on the wall where everyone can see it. I'd make sure his fellow marines got a good look at it every day. Then I'd let nature take it's course for what good human beings do to those who kill the innocent, whether they be domesticated animals or people.

    For good measure, I might strap him to the side of a high building, and leave him there for a couple of hours, dangling over the edge of a window. Feel a bit what it's like to see your death right beneath you, and know that it's in my hands as a sentient human being whether I save you, or let you fall.

    Cocksucking bastard.

    1) As has been stated before, he was booting because of the deeper psychologigal issues this indicates.

    2) He made the Marines and by extension the rest of the military and America look bad...

    I disagree, the Marines and things like this make the rest of the military look good ;)

    I'm saying that's why he was rapidly shown the door.

    Bingo.

    Not only does this indicate that this guy is fucked up, the fact that it was videotaped and made public pretty much guaranteed getting kicked out.

    So in other words, he shouldn't have been punished for what he's done, he should be punished for getting caught?

    Fuck 'im. He made his bed now he can lay in it.
    Oh you can cry all about how dogs give away positions and all that, in a situation where there's a squad at risk take a silenced weapon to it if you must, but this was just a fucking pup, and this guy is a disgrace to the uniform of the US Marines to do what he did.
    Let him simmer in the outcome, it's better than he deserves. :finger:

    What a wankfest over this, trying to defend this shithead. :dayton:

    Wait, so throwing a puppy over a cliff is a one-way ticket out of Iraq?

    Considering the growing cost of air travel that's a heck of a deal. Wonder what you'd have to throw over a cliff to fly first class.

    WTF? Marines are trained to kill ENEMIES OF AMERICA (FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC). Not really seeing how a puppy is a threat to America or it's allies. :(

    An Air Force bud of mine lived next to Marine who had framed photographs of dead, bloody animals in his den. :( wow....

    Anyway, how does the UCMJ (Uniform Code Of Military Justice) work?
    It's "hit or miss" in The Army, but I can't speak for The Marines.
    In The Army ten different people could commit the exact same offense (with exact circumstances) and ten different punishments would be handed out.

    I for one agree with kicking him out, but it would be "honorable/medical
    condition" if his mental health is off the rails on the Crazy Train.

    If he's not crazy, boot him with "other than honorable".

    His effect on recruiting/public opinion alone sure can't help the Marines.

    Man, I honestly cannot imagine anyone throwing a puppy off a cliff, and I know my share of unsavory characters. It's mind boggling!

    Yeah, fuck him.

    I hope someone gives PETA his home address.

    Let the two crazy fucks spend their time on each other.

    Didn't somebody deterimine the video was faked?

    If it was real, then, yeah, he's gotta be a real sick fuck to kill a puppy for fun and video it, AND post it for all the world to see.

    He didn't get kicked out for throwing a puppy off a cliff.

    He got kicked out for throwing a puppy off a cliff, filming it, posting it on YouTube, and making the USMC look bad.

    I guess the outcome tells us that the answer is, "obviously not". :marathon:

    Yup.

    As bad and inhumane as his crime is I don't believe it deserves any prison time because the trouble he's going to face trying to find a job with a dishonorable discharge and the public shame he must be going through are punishment enough.

    Well... I'm not too sure how public it really is. It's not a secret or anything, but I'm pretty sure this is the only place I've heard about it.

    I'm sure he'll do just fine. There are plenty of folks who don't even know what a "youtube" is.

    See, choosing a puppy was Matori's first mistake. If he had simply rounded up a couple dozen Iraqis and shot them instead he wouldn't be in any trouble.

    They may not follow YouTube, but I guaran-fucking-tee that employers know all about a dishonorable discharge. :(

    I think he should apply for a job at Petco or Superpets. :lol:

    "Whatcha in for, mate?"
    "Raped and murdered three teenage girls."
    "Excellent. You should make out fine here. How about you, newbie?"
    "Threw a puppy off a cliff."
    "WHAT?!?! You sick fuck!! Let's shiv this bastard, guys!"
