Puppy Throwing Marine Booted From USMC
06.12.08Well, I was wondering what the outcome was of the marine who tossed the puppy off the cliff. But he was booted from the USMC, and the camera man faced “non-judicial” punishment.

Wow…the Marines aren’t too bright are they. They wouldn’t release what roles each person played in the video…when it is clearer than dog shit who did what in the video. Hmmm. They must not have thought that one through.
“Who dunnit?”
# June 12th, 2008 at 2:06 pm“The Marine Corps said Wednesday it was expelling one Marine and disciplining another for their roles in a video showing a Marine throwing a puppy off a cliff while on patrol in Iraq.”
Expelling? Heath, when do you get expelled? It’s discharged! Man…
It doesn’t say what kind of discharge, either.
It’s definitely bad conduct, but I don’t know if a discharge, or expelling, is warranted. Fine him, bust him, put him on restriction for a while. There may be some other circumstances that we don’t know about as well. It seems a bit overkill.
And Heath, don’t be dogging on the Marines. You never know when one might be hanging around.

# June 12th, 2008 at 6:06 pmyou have twitter! i’m posting about it now.
# June 13th, 2008 at 8:12 amYeah, I Twitter, or Tweet, for no apparent reason.
# June 13th, 2008 at 8:38 amWait a sec…Steve Im not sure I understand your comment. I never said expelled…I was just sayin that the article was stupid for them saying “We’re not gonna tell you who dunnit” when you can clearly hear the dudes name in the video. I was sayin the JAG who said that was retarded…I never said nuthin bout no expelling…
And personally I think they should just kick the dudes ass…if he really wanted to kill a dog he coulda just shot the damn thing instead of chuckin it. Thats just sick shit.
# June 13th, 2008 at 11:49 pmHold on there, partner. That was a quote from the article, not you. I know you wouldn’t say something like that. I know you’re short, and I was just having some fun at the expense of whoever wrote the article. I don’t have any idea why they aren’t saying who did what when it’s pretty clear from the video. You know the military.

Beers!
# June 19th, 2008 at 11:17 pmOK guys, this is not as bad as it looks. First off the Marine must’ve had plenty to eat.
Compare. My late step father a Green Beret was once called a “baby killer.” While baby sitting for another GB, he disciplined the carpet critter by saying’ “Wanna’ sleep in the oven?”
Another friend a truck driver, retired from the Air Force, was accused of eating beagles. That was because he had this gassy smell.
Now contrast. I believe the Marine was expelled as he tossed good food off the cliff.
Otherwise, he would have been called a “puppy killer!” Bet cha’ Harry Reed and Murtha are loving this one.
I think the puppy made it but just another meal in the desert.
Two beers for the Marine and puppy food!
# June 22nd, 2008 at 10:33 amDoes “non-judicial punishment” mean the same thing as “wall to wall counseling”?
