Just read this, and it just reaffirms my belief that many otherwise intelligent people simply have no common sense. If you're a veterinarian, just what would possess you to post a picture of the tomcat, that you just arrowed, on Facebook, and brag about it??? Texas Vet Fights To Keep License A woman from Brenham who posted on Facebook about killing a cat with an arrow is fighting this week to keep her veterinary license. Kristen Lindsey is taking part in an administrative hearing before the Texas Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners that is expected to last three days, KAGS-TV reports. Lindsey sparked outrage in April 2015 when she posted a picture on Facebook in which she was holding an orange-and-white tomcat that had been shot in the head with an arrow. “My first bow kill LOL,” the post said. “The only good feral tomcat is one with an arrow through its head! Vet of the year award … gladly accepted.” Lindsey was later fired from the veterinary clinic she worked at. A veterinary board committee recommended that her license be revoked, but she has been able to continue practicing as a vet while appealing her suspension. Lindsey and the board attempted to reach a settlement in mediation last month, but their failure to do so resulted in this week’s hearing. The board called witnesses Monday who said that the cat was their pet, Tiger, and not a stray, KAGS-TV reported. An attorney for Lindsey argued that it was a different cat. An Austin County grand jury declined to indict Lindsey on animal-cruelty charges in June.
While it's true that all liberals are crazy people, not all crazy people are liberals.

I [bleep] hate cats. Your cat better not be in my yard. Want to keep it alive? Keep it inside.

Stupid move on her part. The Facebook posting, I mean. Shooting feral cats NBD.
I probably hit more elk with a pickup than you have with a rifle. I have yet to see anyone claim Leupold has never had to fix an optic. I know I have sent a few back. 2 MK 6s, a VX-6, and 3 VX-111s.

The question is whether or not she did it legally. Terminal stupidity isn't grounds to lose her license.

I have no problem with her killing the cat, as I've killed them before, and don't doubt that I will again. The Facebook post bragging about it, with pictures, is what put her squarely in the dumbazz category.

I've seen so many otherwise somewhat intelligent people totally screw themselves by posting stupid stuff on Facebook.

Facebook isn't the only place that's overran with idiots.
Good thing there , though, is that whoever starts a thread has the ability to cancel out idiots that post BS on his thread.
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

Cats is cats. Most of 'em need killin'.

I try to do my share of the work lain out before us but there's only so much one man can do.
All I know for sure, word to the wise, is if ya stick an arrow in one and he turns 2 complete flips don't report it on the Leatherwall.

They are the liberals of the animal kingdom.

Very difficult to instill the dangers a free roaming cat may come across in his travels through others property and from various predators. Anytime I am asked I always shake my head and suggest Coyotes which we have in profusion... Who truly knows what happens and why would they put it on FB. Which is quite possibly the dumbest invention that ever made a Billionaire... Regards, Matt.

The first 30 years we had cats. The wife loved them. Burying those cats were dramatic funerals. But the last cat peed on the bed. When that cat died, the wife's eulogy was brief, "Sneakers, you were a lot of trouble." [turning to me] "You can fill in the hole." [walks away].
We have not had another cat in 10 years.

Archerhunter, Unlikely...:) Always like to meet another Cat fan...(grin)
Decided to tone that down a touch, however, you know which way the wind blows. Actually had that .223 AI built for the purpose. I've found it is the small, four footed, things in life that make it truly enjoyable...(laughing)

As if kicking the damn things from under your feet while trying to walk weren't enough, their piss is my least favorite smell on planet Earth.
Yep. They need killin'.

I am very fond of cats. My cats roam around. Be very careful, you bad asses, if you wish to harm my cats you may meet your match. I have weapons, too.

I could care less whether you have cats, like them, or whatever. If you let them roam, you are irresponsible in that regard. Maybe I should send my dog over to your yard to crap, pee, and kill stuff, Mr. Badazz...
