Why I don’t support our troops

Digg, Reddit and the rest of the internet are in a fire storm. After a first video of a US Marine throwing a puppy off a cliff  (Warning: Very saddening video, may be considered graphic for some audiences) several other horrible videos have been uncovered.

These videos are all very sad and show the sick state of our troops in Iraq, watch with some discretion as they may be considered graphic for some audiences.

This is from the soldier from the original video’s sister Kathleen Motari’s blog. I found this post she wrote about the marines after some patriotic babble, I found this excerpt interesting. I can only assume that she is talking about her brother.

“The Marines may be all about work but they have fun as well. A graduate from MHS joined the Marines right out of high school. They were stationed in Hawaii doing missions up in the mountains when they got hungry. They came out of the woods and found a house and took down the address to call a pizza place. The delivery man didn’t want to come all the way up there because it was really far. Finally they convinced him to. The Marines waited in the trees and bushes until the pizza man came. When the delivery man pulled up, all the Marines jumped out of the bushes with their face paint on and their guns. The pizza man was too scared to get out of the car! They gave him an extra tip for going through the hassle to go that far. So after, they hopped back in the bushes and ate their pizza!”

So they made the pizza guy drive further than he wanted and then they jumped out of trees with machine guns and scared the shit out of him. My question being was it as fun as throwing puppies off of cliffs?
