My initial post was not over the top. Kill my dog for no good reason and I’ll bring you to room temperature.

As for ‘a nation of laws’....when those that enforce the laws are above those same laws, there is no law.

As far as acting irresponsibly, talk to the tresspassing and lost cops that killed the dog.

Don’t put the hoo-doo on me for being a gun owner - I wasn’t the the gun carying dipweed in the WRONG YARD.

ANYONE can carry a weapon. Doing so RESPONSIBLY is another matter.

Again, other than your second sentence, you and I are in complete agreement.

Here's why: What would happen if some teen in a car runs over your dog (either intentionally or not)? *Kill my dog for no good reason and I’ll bring you to room temperature.* Would you shoot them? (Or, to keep the analogy more accurate, would you run them over?) I'd hope you'd do neither.

I have a few pets myself and, while I love them dearly, I wouldn't place their lives above a human life. (I think that this is actually the root of where our philosophies may differ.)

ANYONE can carry a weapon. Doing so RESPONSIBLY is another matter.

Amen! This can never be said enough.
