I have shot dogs

The vast majority of humanity is absolutely unconcerned for the suffering of animals. Especially not for animals that relate to humans -- like dogs. Which is not to say that people do not reserve the most excessive sadistic cruelty and indifference for human beings.


World's cruelest dining experiences revealed

Nov 22, 2016 — US restaurants have started to serve live animals like octopus, which joins a long list of cruel food practices such as drowned bird and boiled ...

 

I say it was her dog and if it was causing problems, it is up to her what to do about it.

 

And that doesn't mean everything she does about it is kosher. We can still criticize her for being a psychopathic piece of ****.

 

You're ignoring the evidence. Politicians from Linsey Graham to Ted Cruz were the first to call out his lies and immorality. Trump didn't even win Texas primary in 2016 which is DEEP red because they were disgusted by him. BTW, I'm not sure if you just learned those words and phrases but they don't apply at all lol

 

can you make a post without having a need to whine about Trump? How did the big orange man hurt you so badly?

 

So, anyone who disagrees with you is a psychopathic piece of ****?
This human race kills animals without a second thought. We kill deer and elk and numerous other animals during hunting season without a second thought. Why is a dog more valuable than those other animals? From the animal's viewpoint, what difference does it make whether they are a pet or not?

 

I don't understand why you think it is okay to randomly kill your own pets. You admitted previously that you consider your pets to be different from strays. Now you are saying people are crazy if they do so. Make up your ****ing mind, dude.

 

I hear ya...

 

You're mistaken. I have little issue with Trump except I honestly believe that if you do the crime, you do the time. Too bad his supporters don't believe that. And THAT's who I really have a problem with.

 

She did not randomly kill her own pets. She had a valid reason.

No. I have said this same thing several times. The circumstances are different. I do not enjoy shooting a dog. If I take a pet dog to the vet and the vet says the dog should be put down, I let the vet do it.

I do not take strays to the vet. They are dumped on my doorstep. I have three choices. I can find someone to take them, which is generally impossible. I can dump it somewhere else and make it some else's problem which I consider to be a cowardly choice or I can shoot it.

 

what does this thread have to do about Trump or the obsessive hatred so many lefties have for him?

 

No, this thread is more about how Republican politicians use some of the ugliest characteristics of humanity (such like violence and cruelty) as a selling point to their supporters.

 

What was her valid reason for murdering her dog and why would you have done the same thing in the same situation? And stop the fake argument about strays. Her dog was not a stray. Pretending it was is dishonest. Try again. This time with honesty.

 

You both sound like lefties. Lefties seem OK with killing babies in the womb.

 

I'm sorry that you think only lefties are against animal abuse. I disagree

 

Yeah it's still a bad move for her to brag about that.

 

Hahahaha…so not being ok with killing a pet because the owner failed to train it properly makes me sound like a lefty? Wtf…hahahaha.
Btw…I’ve never killed a baby in the womb. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

She said the dog attacked her and she was concerned about her children. That is a perfectly valid reason for shooting the dog. I would have probably done the same thing.

You are making stuff up. I never once pretended it was a stray. The argument about strays is not fake. When you live in the country, you do what you have to do. I have shot dogs because I thought it was best given the circumstances She did the same thing.

And knock of the petty insults. They add nothing to your argument.

 

and that is a bogus claim and you know it.

 

I know nothing about her motives. Politically it might make a difference, especially when it is played up into more than what it amounted to.

 

You used stories about strays to excuse her actions with a pet. If you no longer think those are valid comparisons, then stop using them. And I've lived in the country. For decades. And you still haven't answered the question about what supposedly happened when the dog "attacked" her.

 

Exhibit A (and you know it):

 

our pet of 16.5 years-almost five years longer than normal for a English Setter, started failing a few weeks ago. howling in pain when he sometimes twisted his hip getting out of his bed. Throwing up blood the other night. We had the dog put down Friday. Did we murder the dog? of course not. years ago, my dad's retired bird dog was hit by a car that was speeding through our drive through driveway. The dog's back was broken. I couldn't move him: the dog just howled in pain for what seemed hours. My father was in a board meeting (I was home from law school). The vet was in surgery and his assistant said they really couldn't do anything. So my father asked me to shoot the dog. I dug a grave for it and just before I shot it, the dog died. I don't think that would have been "murder". Nor what the governor did either

 

I don't see anyone thinking she helped herself here. Not me, nor this well known conservative

 

Killing a dog that is at the end of their life is entirely different. That's not why she did it.
