"Aren’t we all naked at some point?" Nude man emerges from woods, chokes pit bull, threatens owner with imaginary shotgun

A real story out of Massachusetts.

Yes, according to police, 34-year-old Alexander Marano was enjoying a refreshing Sunday morning au naturel on the Ludlow Mills Riverwalk when he allegedly spotted a man walking his 8-year-old pit bull.

I'm not joking about this next part: Marano reportedly charged the pair, threatened the owner with a nonexistent shotgun, and proceeded to choke the dog.

When officers arrived and located the fully naked suspect, Marano helpfully surrendered with his hands up. No weapon was found, but they did recover his clothes, watch, and wallet nearby. Even in a suspected drug-fueled or mental health episode, a man needs his wallet!

Here's where it gets good.

When police asked why Marano was naked, he responded: 'Aren't we all naked at some point?' according to the report.

Yes, we are, Mr. Marano. Yes, we are.

Thankfully, neither the man nor his dog suffered serious injuries. Marano, who reportedly owns a home improvement business, was charged with disorderly conduct, threatening to use a deadly weapon, open and gross lewdness, animal cruelty, and indecent exposure.

"This might surprise you, but Marano has had prior run-ins with the law, including a recent DUI where he insisted he was a "child of God" while driving on three tires."

Textbook meth behavior IMO

A short-barreled shotgun is a shotgun with a barrel less than 18 inches long or an overall length of less than 26 inches. I’m guessing that this guy’s weapon was under the limit.

The Pitty wasn't doing his JOB.

My Beloved Penny(RIP) would never have allowed a nekkid maniac anywhere NEAR her mama!



"Penny at the Pond", by me.

Thank you kindly! 😁

I’ve had six dogs, but Penny was special.

I’ve had five motorcycles, but my current ride is a 93, and I’ve had it for 32 years.

I wish dogs lived as long as Harleys.

I’ve lived in both FL and MA...and it’s a close competition, I assure you.

MASSman has the advantage over Florida man, because he’s probably a Leftist on top of everything else.

So, yeah. mASSh*le gets the win in this round.

So much for the Freeper hysteria about pitbulls.
My Rottie, may the Good Lord rest her sweet soul, would have gone wu tang on any freak trying to hurt anyone (she was a protecter of all.) The irony, when I got her years ago, everyone said she was a killer. She wasn’t, she just liked to make friends and protect those friends with that heck hound bark of hers.

I’m really surprised the pit didn’t stand up — most likely older, inferm, what have you.

But one thing I think we can all agree on — Imaginary Shotgun Control needs to be a thing.

Gee.

According to the pit bull hating cabal, the man should be dead.

It’s a divine miracle.

When police asked why Marano was naked, he responded: 'Aren't we all naked at some point?'

He threatened the neighbor with an imaginary shotgun. Maybe he was in an imaginary shower when he was naked.
