The insanity of humanity is unbelievable.
The brutality of one man in the military is despicable.
As I saw that video the climate in my heart turned from warm to cold.
That man must have felt very bold,
Throwing a defenseless puppy off of a cliff.
Leaving us with that question, what if.
What if the military did this to other people?
Would they then go to a church steeple.
To sit there and repent for their sins?
When they pray their head spinning like rims.
For throwing a symbol of purity, a puppy, to its death.

XTr3m3sT,

You paint a sad picture here.

Like everywhere else, there are a very small number of bad people in the military.

I've served in the military, and I never ran across anything like that--ever.

XTr3m3sT,

Thanks anyway sport, but I don't care to watch such things.

Did you bother to read my post?

If you don't like the military, don't join-up.  There are plenty of kids from my poor hood that will fill your shoes.  No trooper from my hood would do something like that.

Bobby
