CALLER: Hey, Glenn, thanks for taking my call. I just wanted to know, Friday you asked us to pray for Marcus and I was just seeing if you had an update today on what's going on with him.

GLENN: Yes, I do. Yes, I do. Marcus Luttrell is the lone survivor. He was part of the SEAL team. It was the biggest battle any SEAL in SEAL history. He was the only survivor. He lost his whole team. He was then taken by Al Qaeda and the Taliban and he was tortured beyond your wildest imagination and there they held him for a while. He's been sick. He still hasn't recovered from all of the things that they did to him and so he just has he's always in for his back and surgery and everything else.

On Thursday I believe it was, Wednesday or Thursday about 1:00 a.m., Marcus is a guy who doesn't sleep anymore at night. He sleeps during the daytime. And about 1:00 he happened to be awake and he heard a gunshot. He lives on a ranch with his mother in Texas. He grabs his gun and he goes outside. There he sees, I believe it was four. It may be three but I believe it was four young men 18 to 24 years old, all of them, where they had just shot his dog. Marcus' dog is named Dasy. Each letter represents D A S Y represents one of the fallen members of his team. It was given to him in recovery to help him through the recovery process. This dog means everything to Marcus. Marcus had his gun and he took it out and he put it right between the eyes of one of the guys. He was standing away from them, pointed right between the eyes. Now, here's a SEAL team member who is wildly, he's just, he is having trouble, man. He is still recovering from his injuries. He had just gotten out of surgery. He's standing there with a gun between the guy's eyes. He doesn't fire. All four and he's just saying, "You killed my dog." They executed his dog. "You killed my dog. Why would you do that?" They run. They get into his car. Marcus gets into his truck, chases them over four counties, finally runs them into a ditch. He calls the Rangers. The Texas Rangers arrive and these guys, when the Texas Rangers are taking these guys away, Marcus has held them there by a gun. As the Rangers are taking these guys away, they're threatening Marcus' life and saying, "When we get out, we're coming for you next. First it was your dog. It's going to be you next. You don't know who you're messin' with." That's when Marcus kind of snapped just a little bit and said to the Ranger, "Excuse me, ranger, do you know who I am?" He said, "Yes, sir, Mr. Luttrell, I do." He said, "You might want to explain to these punks because I could have killed them 600 different ways and if I wanted to kill you guys after what you would have done what you just did to my dog, I would have pulled you down into my basement and I would have tortured you for days and you wouldn't have died until you begged me for death. So before you start saying you're going to come after me, you better learn who you've just whose dog you just killed."

They get into jail. These four punks have been killing dogs in Marcus' county now for a month, for joys, joy rides and kicks. Tonight Marcus is going to be on television and he's going to tell the story, and I'm showing the pictures of these dirtbags. And I want you to call PETA, I want you to call every activist you know. I want you to hear the story of a hero whose dog was executed. In all of the times that everybody is saying, oh, guns gotta be taken off the streets, you gun nuts. Here's a responsible gun owner that with everything he's gone through, everything that that dog means, these dirtbags come and kill his dog. He could have killed them all. He probably would have enjoyed it, justifiably so and he didn't because he's an American hero. Keep him in your prayers.

while they are in, when they get out, once a month for propriety sake, and twice on every anniversary.

Than me also I must confess. Given all of that, I don't think I could have restrained my trigger finger. OTOH, the SEAL has probably seen 10x more death than he ever wanted to, and chose not to add American children to that list - despite the fact that one of them was obviously armed, and defense (especially in TX) was legally justified.

Fair winds and following seas, brother, and hoo-ya! What you did...and what you didn't do...takes extraordinary character. Mad respect.

too bad he didn't kill the SOBs.

there needs to be far stricter laws regarding killing dogs. 2 years max, in Texas, is a joke.

People who kill animals for fun make me sick. Mad respect for the dude for not shooting the fuckers responsible. I almost hope they DO come after him when they get out of prison. Maybe then they'll learn a real lesson.

And that's why I have to say this.

Call me cynical but anyone else getting a vague "Joe the Plumber"/"Old Shoe" vibe from this?

I wouldn't say this otherwise, but this guy seems to have a fairly high media profile (http://www.google.com/search?q=Marcus+Luttrell&sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS282US282), and I don't trust a word out of Beck's mouth.

It does sound a little bit too much like a movie script. I mean common, a car chase??

from wikipedia:

Attacked at home

On April 5, 2009, four teenage males approached Luttrell's property and fatally wounded his dog, Dasy, with a handgun at approximately 1 A.M. Each letter of the name "Dasy" represents one of the fallen members of his team. She was given to him in recovery to help him through rehabilitation. Luttrell proceeded to track the individuals through four counties in his truck until police apprehended the individuals. Upon arrest, the suspects verbally threatened Luttrell's life and taunted him. Alfonso Hernandez was arrested on-scene and charged with animal cruelty whilst Michael Edmonds remains at large. The other two individuals were not charged

...wtf

Let's not forget that they are animals not humans.

LOL, your sure to get feedback with this one.;)

Let me start. My dog is my most loyal friend. She knows my feelings oft times before I do. She will never turn on me. She will lay down her life for me. If someone kills my dog, intentionally, they had better hope that the state puts them away for 2 years before I get to them. When they are released they better be looking over their shoulder the rest of their life.

Welcome to the forums.

Edited to make this post seem more p.c. as no threat was intended to rckt24. The words "you" have been replaced with "someone" and "they" and "their".

Okay, since you're anti-animal rights, then you must be pro-property rights, correct?

So if I kill someone's dog thus destroying their property, how is that any different from arson or wrecking someone else's car? You're essentially destroying property either way. If you're going to degrade animals in such a fashion, I'll take your argument to your own precious property-fetish views.

I didn't say that it wasn't a bad crime. These kids definitely deserved to be strictly punished but I just think that law is too strict in some cases. FBI agent aside should this man in the article below go to prison for two years because he shot and accidentally killed a dog with a bb gun that owners wouldn't keep off his own property.

Pretty much apples and oranges with regard to the OP.
