What I don't get is, if there were two of them on the mountain, what kinda of dangerous situation would have prevented them from carrying the dog all the way down with them?
After reading all 544 posts while it was going on I would say because they were unprepared and should have turned back when she first hurt her paw early on. By the time she was completely lame it was to rough for them to pack her out.
Then the jerk made no effort to organize a search to go back and get her. He left that to others who did so.
If you read the whole thing you will have no sympathy for him at all.
“...what kinda of dangerous situation would have prevented them from carrying the dog all the way down with them?”
Ok, at the first I guess there was some storm or something. But later the far more dangerous situation of laziness and victimology set in. The cops won’t help me, my dog is dying, it’s not my fault, I’m a victim, it’s bush’s fault, obama’s fault, woe is me!
This is the truly dangerous mindset that we saw on full display during hurricane katrina and with which the democratic party seeks to infect us all.
I’m helpless, I’m hopeless, Nothing is my responsibility!
It is THIS ATTITUDE that is going to destroy America.
