I didnt hear the show, full transcript is here, link (http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/23658/).


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.

Those teens need serious help - and not of the slap-on-the-wrist kind. God Bless Mr. Lutrell, and he will be in our prayers. And please, folks, don't go blaming the guns. If they didn't have guns, they likely would have been killing dogs with the car, with bow and arrow, stones, or some other such way. They should, while incarcerated, be severely "educated" and made to do years and years of some sort of service to the community as well.

I should have posted the disclaimer, I couldnt find any news link on this story on the interweb. With a story that has a positive outcome from the use of a firearm that isnt suprising, but the lack of a news link does leave a doubt.

We just watched that episode of Glenn Beck. OMG... I have no words. I really don't.

WTF is wrong with these "kids"? They definitely need to pay a hefty price for this.

I read the book, "Lone Survivor". It is simply an amazing story of courage, brotherhood and compassion... Yes, compassion.

On another note... Those punks are VERY lucky that Mr. Lutrell did not decide to take matters into his own hand. They were apparently talking tough at him after they were arrested. LOL Marcus Luttrell is one bad dude. He is one of 3 men to ever graduate the U.S. Navy SEAL Sniper School with perfect marks.

I am betting that by now they are well aware of how lucky they are to still be alive and would like to fall off the face of the earth where this man can never find them..... or maybe not.

That poor dog! Let's hope they throw the book at these guys!
