A human disgrace

Often we force dogs to communicate through aggression by ignoring and disrepecting their obvious and subtle signals.
Here is an example of 3 very capable men taunting and enjoying the suffering of a helpless and crippled dog for their own "amusment."
WARNING: This is very disturbing video of troops abusing an injured helpless dog. Following the video are links about abuse to animals and how it impacts society. These SOLDIERS found this entertaining.
