They Killed the Wrong Guy's Dog

They killed the wrong guy's dog. Sad story:

Here's a bio on the dog's owner:

I daresay that gentleman showed more restraint than I might have. What a bunch of a$$holes, lucky for them that warriors have honor. Clearly they have none. I hope the guy works it out ok.

I'd work it out ok. From "the middle of nowhere" after they are released. 6 mos? No where near long enough.

Well, he didn't drop the hammer first time, so.....

but I definitely am in agreement with your thinking Sapper

I'd have probably killed them all when that gun was pointed at me from their car. :innocent: If they have access to newspapers, assuming they can read, they've gotta' be sweating a bit.

lol. I can say in that regard he's a lot better man than I am. I would have lit the drivers side window of the car till I saw blood spurt out the passenger side. But I've made it clear how I feel about my dogs before. Guess that's why I don't really understand this guy, but after what he's been through, I think I can understand not wanting anymore blood on my hands too.

Saw an interview with Marcus the other night. He showed more restraint than I would have. I recently read the book he wrote "Lone Survivor", and don't believe that threatening him (one of the A-holes said he'd be back to kill him) is going to do much to scare him off. But now - Ken can help with this - "Hey your honor - he threatened to come back and kill me, I was just defending myself. Judge - OK, but why the reload after 15 shots that hit center body mass?

I don't think I'd have much of a problem defending the case in Texas. The re-load? Training. Pure training.

The military programmed me for attention to detail. I was just paying attention to the detail that he was still moving.

I doubt the man would need to gun anyone down. The sheriff would be saying something like.

"Right. We KNOW it was self defense but how'd you pinch his head off?"

"Trade secret."

I know I have told you'all this some time ago. True, it happened in the early 70's in Anchorage. Lady shot her spouse (5) FIVE times with a Ruger single action Blackhawk .44 Magnum as he came up the front porch steps. This is priceless.........She told the cops........"It stuck on automatic, She only meant to scare him"..............:smash::smash::smash: NOTE: This was before the transfer bar refit, and he only kept 5 rounds in the gun as it was considered not safe to have a round under the hammer.........:innocent:

Yeah, 7 times would have been stretching the truth a bit.
