He may look cute and cuddly, but he's thinking, "Do you feel lucky, punk? Well do you?"

As dumb and all as my dog is, and as much as she makes me angry some times, I can't imagine beating her with the but of my gun. The phone book, maybe, but my gun...?

She's laying on my feet now, keepin' them warm in the cold northeast.

Jacka** got just what he deserved.

Would "registration" prevent this tragedy?

I think trailers do have to be registered. :)

He obviously needed killin'. This death warms the cockles of my hard heart.

Raymond ''Raven'' Poore, a construction worker, apparently was beating the dog on the head with the butt of a rifle-shotgun when it discharged and hit him in the lower abdomen.

Apparently he wasn't even bright enough to use the other end. Score another for Darwin.

Did you really need to read his rap sheet to know what he did to the dog was wrong? I didn't. This is a demonization process. It's wrong. If we agree with it here, then we can't disagree with it when they use the same tactic to trash people who shouldn't be.

Or "ballistic paw-printing"?

LOL, for shame. But I would not be surprised if xspup came out the victor of that battle.
