PORT RICHEY — Debra Jackson was tired of a neighbor's dog defecating in her yard, authorities say.

So when she saw the dog and his owner Wednesday afternoon, she grabbed her shotgun.

"I'm having a bad day," said Jackson, 50, according to a Pasco County Sheriff's Office report. "I'm gonna shoot you and that dog."

ROOT WORD: "DECAY"

You said it, Ping.

Many people are too stupid to understand what Decadence means. They think it's a dessert with too much chocolate or some such asininity as that.

I read Gibbon back during the Carter Administration. The handwriting was on the wall back then. If I could read it, anybody could.

Millions of Americans are morons!

Whatever happened to rock salt?

Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t there non-lethal loads you can put in a shotgun to scare off a trespasser?

There is nothing you can shoot from a shotgun that will make it anything but a lethal weapon in the eyes of the law and you will be charged accordingly.

Move to the country. I deal with poop from my own dogs and wild animals only. The bears get to go wherever they want...

I have to agree with you, most probably didn’t click on the link. (tagline)

Had someone leveled a shotgun at my 2 year old and 11 month old granddaughters while we were just looking for a lost dog my pleading to the judge would be guilty with extenuating circumstances along with temporary insanity and hope they were grandparents themselves.

I’d love to find the person who allows their dog to cr@p in the drive way right beside our car door.GRRRR that person I would be tempted to do that to!

The lady down the street used to walk her dog over to my lawn for a crap every morning, then walk him home.

If you know where she lives, why not deliver the poop back to her. It's up to you how and where it is placed.

You know the kids couldn’t WAIT till Dad got home so they could tell him ALL about it! Funny but after that “little incident”, there wasn’t any more poop in my driveway or front yard. Hmmmm?!

Right! The rude neighbor learned her lesson. Kudos to you for solving that stinkin’ (literally) problem! I admire you.

There is a better way of handling this that doesn’t involve the cops or a gun.

Long after dark, pick up the poo, return it to the owners.

On the steps, the door handles, the door handle of the car, the mirrors and the windshield.

Good aim.

I bet it solved the problem too.

Probably should have. It took me awhile to determine the source, but once I did I chose the passive approach - planted a hedge.

She since moved & her dog is squatting on someone elses lawn, presumably.

Yes.... I went nuttier than a squirrel turd. You have to understand though.. for weeks, I had been cleaning up those piles. Plus, whenever the kids played in the front yard, they tracked dog poop inside. Then I had to wash/scrub those little sneakers. I think it was the woman’s “nonchalant” attitude of making me wait while her dog finished pooping in my driveway. I will say this... we didn’t have any more poop! LOL!!!

Go out in the yard and pour hot bacon grease over the poops. The next time the dog comes back, he’ll recycle them for you. :D

So when the owner gets the doggie home, gives him a biscut for pooping on my lawn, the doggie jumps up on the owners bed for a little nap, all of a sudden doggie gets a tummy crap......sounds too good to be true.
