    If it's real he's going.....Straight To Hell

    (The Clash)

    If you can play on the fiddle
    How's about a British jig and reel?
    Speaking King's English in quotation
    As railhead towns feel the steel mills rust water froze
    In the generation
    Clear as winter ice
    This is your paradise

    There ain't no need for ya
    Go straight to hell boys

    Y'wanna join in a [Chorus]
    Of the Amerasian blues?
    When it's Christmas out in Ho Chi Minh City
    Kiddie say papa papa papa papa-san take me home
    See me got photo photo
    Photograph of you
    Mamma Mamma Mamma-san
    Of you and Mamma Mamma Mamma-san
    Lemme tell ya 'bout your blood bamboo kid.
    It ain't Coca-Cola it's rice.

    Straight to hell
    Oh Papa-san
    Please take me home
    Oh Papa-san
    Everybody they wanna go home
    So Mamma-san says

    You wanna play mind-crazed banjo
    On the druggy-drag ragtime U.S.A.?
    In Parkland International
    Hah! Junkiedom U.S.A.
    Where procaine proves the purest rock man groove
    and rat poison
    The volatile Molatov says-

    Pssst...
    Hey chico we got a message for ya...
    Vamos vamos muchacho
    From alphabet city all the way A to Z, dead, head

    Go straight to hell

    Can you really cough it up loud and strong
    The immigrants
    They wanna sing all night long
    It could be anywhere
    Most likely could be any frontier
    Any hemisphere
    No man's land and there ain't no asylum here
    King Solomon he never lived round here

    Go straight to hell boys

    I can't watch. As soon as I read the title of the video and saw the puppy in his hands I clicked away. Any possibility it could be a trick? If not, that is one sick human.

    I can't tell if the puppy is alive or not. As in it doesn't seem to move at all before he throws it off the cliff.

    Still fucked up either way though.

    I was trying very hard to see if that puppy moved and it appears to not move at all.

    I dunno. If you've ever picked up a puppy or kitten by the nape of the neck they left their legs up and just dangle there, because that's how the adults transport the offspring.



    I didn't watch the whole video though, and refuse to.

    That was totally faked.

    You would not hear impact at that distance, and there was no doppler effect on the yelping. you can see the dog fall all the way to the bottom and bounce backwards (towards) instead of forwards (away) behind a bush or a rock. Also follow the swing of the guys arm and notice how far the dog flies so much farther in relation to the power exerted, another giveaway.

    It looked fake to me right away.

    that was really distrubing, i hope you're right. i didn't watch it too intently because i was afraid of what i might see.
    i wonder why they would even joke about something like that. war changes people though doesn't it :(

    Actually I looked again and the guys hand does move, and I suppose if the terrain was sloped the dog could bounce backwards like that. The resolution is really bad to be certain. However the audio is all wrong, and the guy must have super powers to toss the dog that far on such a casual throw.

    It made the news already and there is an investigation underway. It will be probably proved fake either way though... ;) but it's a fake just going by the audio.

    I'm a 12 yr active duty army vet, one thing we all need to remember, soldiers are people, humans, from all over the country, and in some cases the world, they come from diverse back grounds, and share our good and bad traits...I saw some hinky shit during peace time in while in the army and over seas, I can only imagine what some asses are doing while serving our country in Iraq. Being a soldiers, or coined a 'hero' doesn't mean some of them aren't some of the worst of us.

    Definitely true. I guess we should keep in mind that shit worse than this is going on all over the country by kids of all backgrounds. We're probably quicker to jump on these guys because they are in a way representing us and are expected to be so disciplined.

    Thanks for your service. You're right, there are shit people in every walk of life. I just hope people don't forget that these kids are also capable of great acts of kindness and legitimate heroism.

    And, the worst part is, some of it is totally unnecessary. All war is horrendous and nasty, even in what I think most people would agree was the just cause Allied cause of WWII. I don't think I could ever understand what these guys go through on a daily basis. Being a war-time soldier has to be about as tough as it gets. The problems are only just beginning. The soldiers lucky enough to make it out of Iraq alive and without crippling physical injuries will be sent back into "normal" society with scores of mental problems and PTSD. I just hope whomever wins the November election will figure out a way to get enough funding for these kids so they can get the help they will probably need.

    agreed. while i will not support this war, i do support our troops.

    with that being said, this is disgusting. ( the video that we can tell is real )

    i cant speak on the original vid, as it was removed from youtube b4 i could see it.

    I saw this on cnn. I became violently ill and let out a similar yelping sound that the innocent puppy made. Only mine resonated within my body and mind, which grew into a session of overwhelming tears and questioning of how could a human being be capable of such disregard for life.
    I am shaken to my core. This is a person who is "protecting" me and my fellow citizens. Thanks, but no thanks. He is despicable.
    I know there are far worse things that people do to one another, most of which i have been absorbing/suppressing, but I have not seen them with my own eyes. This was the first evidence of pure evil I have witnessed for myself.
    To see the soul-less smiling marine wind up as if he were throwing someone out at home plate from the center field wall was extremely disturbing. That puppy's yelps of PURE FEAR will haunt me. I will love my dog and all of the helpless creatures even more and pray for anyone who could even consider a deplorable act such as this.
