Finding a Hero in "Dog"

Wednesday September 20, 2006

Idol Chatter readers may remember a post I wrote back in January on my love for Duane "Dog" Chapman, the unlikely star of the A & E series "Dog: The Bounty Hunter" and a deeply faithful Christian.The long-haired, leather-wearing, born-again...

No good deed goes unpunished -- or so it seems. Yet to those in Christ we hold to His promise that vengance belongs to the Lord and he will surely vindicate Dog, Leland and Tim.>

This guy is a coward. He talks all kind of crap but in the end he is wetting his pants.>

We need more people like Dog and Beth.
They come across as just ordinary citizens trying to help prevent crime.

If he did break the law he should be at least repremended for it.


All of the good he has done should account for something!!

I for one throughly enjoy the show.
I have seen no action except to apprehend a person that will again
committ a crime.>

I am glad that we have angels on earth-they are dog, his wife Beth & the dog pound! We need more people will to reach out a hand when they have a chance to. There is truly a place in heaven for God's workers on Earth.

I truley feel like Dod,Leland & Tim were just doing there jobs.They got a very bad criminal off the streets and as a woman that has been raped I praise you for that. I sleep alittle better at night knowing that is just one more "jerk" off the streets. Beth and to the rest of you Chapman women, you should be very proud of your men. I know I am.Ya'll keep up the good work and know that God and your fans(like me) are with you each and every day. I love ya'll and your show and I will continue to say a prayer for ya'll every day.

I think that Dogg and his entire family are the best example of a strong and christian based family so much so that my 6 year old watches every show with me. He's had a profound influence on such a small child that I thank the Lord everyday for all of them. To show true compassion and understanding to the people who need the Lord in their life so badly is such an honorable deed that it sickens me that anyone would want to prosecute them for putting a horrible man like Lester behind bars. I wish my sister had a bondsman like him pick her up, then maybe she would have been told that she's not worthless and that although it's hard to change your life, the Lord promimsed never to give us more then we can handle because he is our strength when we are week. If any of the Chapman family read this...I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing Gods will and being such a positive influence on my son! Anyone feel free to email me with comments.>

Something is just not right. Border patrol agents punished for doing their job. Sense when do we allow an american to go to a country where their human rights will be violated. A country that doesn't allow extradition. Mass firing of federal attorneys. It will all come to light. We need a change in administration now.>

I whole heartily believe that Dog,Leland and Tim with thier strong religious belief and the support of so many people who admire what they all do, to keep so many of us safe and the total support and love from thier families that they will all be vindicated. The Mexican law is really stupid because if any of thier criminals go out on bail and choose to run then they know, no one will come looking for them, and that just tells them they can repeat any criminal act that they committed in the first place,that is so sad. Our prayers are with them all!>

i say screw em why should we help mexico anyway do you even know how many americans or greengos have gotten just plain lost in mexican jails and prisons if you do go back dog you just might not make back alive they will just lock you up some where and 6 months will go bye and all of a sudden huh oh wheres the dog well the mexican government will say well we just dont know oops oh well thats if the guards dont let someone shive you in the showers or in the yard i mean look how bad are own prisons are you got ms-13 down they my brotheryou thinks any of those guards really gives to spits if a guy wants to rape you hell no they see so much dirty disgusting things so often it becomes no big deal to these guards after so long and especially if they are crooked and you and i both know it happens and more than the average joe would ever dream know one knows what prison is like unless you been there and did your time ya knowit is supposed to be a controlled enviroment ha right well i guess all i can say is good luck and i dont beleive or feel you should be punished for what you did i do not see a criminal act here!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean thats all you did is what wHAT either nobody was willing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! to do OR NOBODY COULD DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND nobody even got hurt for goodness sake now thats justice we got rid of a sick vile predator who preys on our mothers and sisters and yes even our precious daughters our daughters oh thats ithes lucky you caught him and not me or i know some one would have got hurt i guarantee it and it would not be me thats for sure but i respect you dog and beth and your whole family you are doing a great thing so keep up the goodwork
