I had never heard of this guy until today.

Marcus Latrell - lone survivor

Evidently someone was driving round his neighbourhood shooting dogs. They made the mistake of shooting his in the middle of the night, waking him up. The dog was named for the other SEAL team members who didn't make it home with him. There is a 911 audio tape out there that I just heard - he gives chase to 4 guys in a Toyota Camry, speeds in excess of 100 mph, while he talks to the 911 dispatcher on his cell phone. I'll see if I can find the audio.

[Needless to say the 4 in the Toyota did not escape]

ZOOOOOM!
So after that horrible Afghanistan experience, he comes home to have punks shoot and kill his dog??

He should have shot them. He should have called 911 after he chased them down and at least shot them in the leg.

I posted about this guy yesterday...I've heard him interviewed before, and he's definitely been through the woods to grandma's house.

When he got in his truck to chase the perps, he had two loaded Beretta 9mm's..

I read that post yesterday. The guy is definitely a hero for not shooting those stupid SOBs but I would have certainly cut him a whole bunch of slack if he had.

If you've never heard of him, I recommend his book:
