I heard it on his program last night. I cannot comprehend why anyone would do such a cruel thing. I hope they catch him and put him away. It's great that Glenn is trying to help.

the fact that these punks shot his dog is horribly cruel enough, but that the dog was named after his dead friends and was his support as he healed is even worse!

I lack the vocabulary to put the sheer horror of this story into words. While the dead dog is sad and her killing was a cruel and barbaric; it is what the dog was, what the dog signified, all the dog had come to mean to someone who so sorely needed her ..... All that taken away. For what?

Mr. Luttrell must be a man of outstanding fortitude. I cannot begin to even comprehend what sort of grief he must be experiencing - grief that must feel as if history is repeating itself.

Marcus has much more restraint than I would have had that's for sure.
I heard that the other punk turned himself in to the authorities, now we need to put pressure on the legal system to throw the book at these evil disgusting excuses for human beings.

I personally think that us animals lovers need to get together and require that the punishments for these types of crimes must be much more severe. I am trying to figure out what I need to do, if I need to get a petition together I hope I can count on many of you to sign it.

Actually he showed all the restraint he was trained for and well was chosen for as well. One of my most dearest friends was a Navy Seal, he could scare the whits of many guys who treated me poorly back in the day. I could just imagine how Stupid those kids were to think they will get the best of him in the end. My brother broke the nose of guy who just tried to hurt his dog once.... I can just image all the lovely thoughts going through Marcus' head while he had those numbskulls at gun point.
