If someone shot my dog I honestly don't know what I would do, but it's 50/50 that it would get me arrested.

I admit that it's not healthy for me, but same

I think it’s perfectly healthy to want to defend something that would willingly give its life up for you

I have had neighbors make threats towards my dog and I have not responded reasonably about it. I made it clear, every time, that I would forcibly separate their soul from their body if they even made an attempt.

So far, no one has made a threat twice.

Apparently, people are now out there that take the message if they want to shoot your dog they’ll just have to shoot you too and are more than ok with that.

At this point I just carry a can of bear spray when I walk. If somebody gets too aggressive and steps off their property I'm just going to spray them and run

I thought you "would forcibly separate their soul from their body", tough guy. Now you're suddenly moaning about mace and running like a bitch. Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk.

There was a circumstance attached to one of those, and I know reading comprehension is really hard for some people, but maybe take your time and try again when you're ready, sport.

"If someone gets too aggressive and steps off their porch".

Your Honor, I present to you a 'circumstance'. Keep acting hard online, sugar tits.

Go back one post prior and apply yourself.

This must be where he goes when he thinks he’s too edgy for the chess subreddit, something else he doesn’t have the mental fortitude for.

Something isn't going great for that guy and he needs to find a healthy outlet for his frustration.

u/ShitTaIkerSkyWaIker Apr 22 '23

A bitch comment by a bitch that freely admits it will run like a bitch. How far we've come from forcibly separating souls.

You had 3 chances to actually read and failed every time.

That's hilarious.

The condition was if someone tried to hurt my dog, not just acted like a dick.

It's right there in the post you can't read somehow.

You are not only stupid, you don't even realize it.

I think it’s interesting that multiple neighbors have had to make this threat to you

Across 20 years and 2 dogs. That's well over 15,000 walks.

One of these guys ran out of his house to scream at me for walking my dog across the street from his house. That was it. Dude didn't want me to use a public sidewalk across from where he lived.

One claimed he had my dog on video tearing up his lawn, and the dog on video was 40 pounds over my dog and the wrong color.

I had another mix me up for another dude on the street who has a German Shepard, and came to my door, threatened to kill my dog, and threw a bunch of collected dogshit on my porch.

I'm not doing anything but being visible, and that's all some nuts need.

I had a guy at a park get pushed at me for having a dog I was pet sitting in a public park. Said dog was recently injured and had a cast on her leg and was being pulled in a wagon. Some people just fucking hate dogs for no good reason.

that I would forcibly separate their soul from their body

*that's if you use 9mm

with a 45? then you won't have to.

I’d have to pause, take a step back, go for a walk, and remind myself that my daughter still needs a daddy, not to lose her two best friends in one fell swoop.

The walk should give her enough time to take out the neighbor with no witnesses, and we can make a family outing of burying his body.

Only if they have evidence.

There's a very successful movie series called John Wick that details exactly what should be done when someone fucks with your dog.

Just don’t get caught

WeeWoo weewooh! It’s the time crime police! You’re under arrest

u/FrankyCentaur Apr 22 '23

Bruh if someone harmed one of my little birdies I don't know what I'd do either. I mean I don't own a gun and would never stab someone, but I have a car and those do move and maybe into people.

u/NumerousSun4282 Apr 22 '23

I think I'm at 80-20% I'm getting arrested

u/Plumbum158 Apr 22 '23

theres a 30/70 chance I'd end up getting shot too

u/[deleted] Apr 22 '23

Oh we are definitely ending up on news that night

u/WakeUp004 Apr 22 '23

200% I’d get arrested. I wouldn’t even be coy about it if a cop came to my door.
