puppy abuse

[mellowtigger]

jpeace pointed out yesterday a video of what seems to be a U.S. soldier abusing a puppy by throwing it out into the desert.  It's not clear how it lands or if it gets back up again.

I notice today that the original video site is not responding, the youtube video "has been removed due to terms of use violation", and although the soldier's profile was viewable yesterday it now requires login first.  Still, you can read about it in this article of the local Minneapolis newspaper.

I do have the Flicker video saved on my hard drive, though.  If anybody really wants it, get your email address to me and I can send it to you.  It's only about 2MB in size.  It's a low-resolution 15-second video.

(edit:  Just search youtube or google for "soldier throws puppy" and you'll likely find a copy of the video before it gets yanked.  People everywhere are posting and responding to the video.)
