The dog would be alive if the gate had been locked. I’m not blaming the victim or excusing the perps or the cops, just stating a fact.
The dog got loose when the perps left a gate open. If the gate had been locked the dog would be alive.
If the culprits being chased left open the gate, why wasn’t the dog interested in them?
This could all have been avoided if the original beating victim had just shot the bastards, too.
How in tarnation is it possible, mailmen, utility crews, meter readers etc, etc, can go through their entire careers and not have to routinely shoot and kill neighborhood pets?
How is possible these people can even perform their jobs without guns on their sides?
