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.

Wild Thing’s comment………
Crying as I post this, I hate these people that did this. They are vicious bestial creatures, and all their lives combined, are worth less than the life of the dog they killed.
It is bad enough this hero and his story is virtually ignored by the media,then some punk thugs kill his dog
Marcus is suffering from his wounds and trying to get his life back on track,then something like this happens.
Pure travesty. My heart is breaking for this brave man and his dog.
….Thank you Mark for sending this to me.

It angers me to the soul Chrissie. I have to temper this with the knowledge that the left had painted our heroes with their brush of hatred to the point that they foster this type of behavior in their offspring. Who’s to blame? Certainly the perps but it goes much deeper to the ingrained attitude of their parents, their peers and most of all the media.
How could anyone kill a defenseless animal, especially a little dog? She is so cute. My soul cries out in anger that there are such people in the world who would do such dastardly things. They don’t see the world as it truly is but how they want it to be. Spoiled rotten little brats who have more than likely been given everything they ever asked for and more and parents who bail them out time and time again. And the media who only shows the bad and never any of the good. My prayers are with Marcus. Losing a pet like this is like losing a child-you never get over it.
I’ve had the honor of meeting Marcus. Not one of us sitting here at home can imagine all he has gone through.
Dasy was more than a pet to Marcus~ she was a special little being with a big job.
Nevermind that the ones who did this are complete degenerates – But how stupid does one have to be to threaten a Navy Seal??
Time to clean out the gene pool…
In Texas they couldn’t have found a jury to convict Marcus had he taken these punks out.
These pumnks come from and dwell in the shallow end of the gene pool. I say it time to drain and filter that end of the pool.
Just out of curiousity is Hernandez a legal citizen of this country. My bet would be he is an illegal.
Dear Marcus:
I am so sorry about Daisy. I love my dogs, but more important you are a great hero and we are very proud of you. My husband read your book and cried. I know how a dog can get into your heart as Daisy. We prayer for you and Daisy. Did you know when our beautiful four legged companions passes, they cross over the Rainbow Bridge waiting someday for us to join them. Again, from the bottom of our hearts, we are so sorry and sometimes animals are better then people. We people are a disgrace to humanity to do such a horrible and cruel crime. I hope they go to jail for a long time. After what you have been through already, I guess you have to heal again. I am so sorry. You are a strong and wonderful person and again ,we will keep you and Daisy in our prayers.
We are so proud of you now and forever
Jane and John Baldino
This is one example of why citizens need guns. There is a large(growing?) element of people in America who don’t want to leave other people alone. We need the means to protect ourselves against these predators. Marcus Luttrell responded the way he should have. Both his military training and the way he was raised came into play. The bad guys were caught.
The liberals don’t want citizens to be armed. The bad guys will still be armed. Even worse, the government will be armed.
It doesn’t take any macho to kill a friendly dog. I hope these bastards get all the law can deal out to them.
Hey, Send them to one of the Judges in Victoria or DeWitt Counties, they won’t have ANY reservations about throwing the book at these two little punks. Afterwards they can put them in the Prison in Cuero, Texas; they’ll make a lot of new friends there.
Its a good thing it wasn’t me who’d confronted these pussy boys cause I’d have busted their fucking skulls open. These type of pukes do not deserve to breathe the air we breathe. They are a total waste of humanity. If someone off’s them, I will salute them.
Thank you all so much, I really appreciate your comments and input.
This is so upsetting, so horrible.
Yankeemom, thank you too for sharing about meeting Marcus.
