SUMMARY
Marcus Luttrell was used to fighting enemies abroad. When two gunmen murdered his dog at home in Texas, he couldn’t help spring into action.

It was a regular April night around the Luttrell home near Huntsville, Texas. It had been five years since Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell fought the 2005 firefight with the Taliban that was portrayed in the film Lone Survivor. Since then, he received a Yellow Labrador puppy to help him recover from the unseen wounds of the war. He named the pup "Dasy," an acronym of the names of his fellow SEALs — the ones that didn't survive the battle.

A shot rang out throughout the area of the house. Luttrell sprang into action, grabbed a 9mm pistol, checked to see if his mother was alright, and then ran outside to check on Dasy. He found the puppy at the end of a trail of blood.

"When I saw she was dead, the only thing that popped into my head was, 'I've got to take these guys out,'" Luttrell told NBC News.

Marcus and his brother Morgan grew up in the middle of nowhere near where I live. Morgan now represents me as a member of congress and Marcus is still nearby.

Only two years?  Shooting someone's dog should be a capital crime in Texas.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Cruelty to animals is now supposed to be a federal offense.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

That dog is like a member of the family. Kill it, and I figure you're gunning for me next.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

When we had our first child, I went right out and got a Yellow Lab for my son to grow up with.
