Tells me all I needed to know.....


Apologies for the mis-information concerning prior felonies.


Oh...I may be missing something here, how is a retired teacher an obvious problem.

In point of fact I do not recall too many retired teachers feeling the need to confront neighbours with firearms either.


The 'teaching profession' here has become filled with 100% liberal snowflakes, especially at the higher ed level.
I deal with these people daily[at VT] 9 out of 10 are educated idiots while all along assuring themselves that they are mentally superior in all facets of life to the poor masses.


Just a point, if I were council for the fellow I would most definitely be saving this thread.

"This is very one sided, do you have a link to a more complete story?"

Not real sure what you want here?
The man lives on a postage stamp lot in farm country, three lots down from the 'farm'.
Cats meander over to farm, dogs chase cats back home, and have most likely done it on multiple occasions.
Stepfather goes down road to retrieve dogs[and I never once said stepfather and his dogs weren't at any fault], man[owner of cats] confronts stepfather in public street and puts a pistol barrel in his face first, then proceeds to shoot both dogs at point blank range.Man[cat owner] is arrested, held in jail for 2 days and charged with multiple [felony] offenses. Stepfather is charged with nothing, zip, zero, zilch.

Did they have a history? Possible, I don't honestly know.

I don't mean to cast aspersions, it just seems extremely odd that a retired teacher confronts someone with a firearm and then shoots his dogs.

The man could be a lunatic of the first order, or there could be more to the story.

Very pleased I am nowhere near them.

Cool, why not introduce some obscure religious text as well.

It wouldnt do you any good. wink

Sorry, JS, but when we have folks who supported people like Zero who voted for late term abortions 3 times and said if a baby wasnt killed by the procedure and was viable it should be placed on a cold metal table in a room with the AC jacked up until it died.

You see no conflicts in those actions?

They pee on everything they see and chase the cats ---- Annoying, but I'd never consider shooting one.

If I had livestock, however, it would be different. I've seen horses run thru fences while being chased by dogs --- sometimes Labs. One of my neighbors shotgunned 2 dogs (belonging to another neighbor) that were chasing his cows. The kids were upset, but nobody said a word about it. I don't keep my cats on my property, but if they were to get to a neighbors and start killing birds, I'd expect never to see them again.

You f'ing crack me up....No really, you do.

"Ok, I get that you have a bias toward educators but I believe you pointed out that he owned at least one firearm and lives out of town, so I for one wouldn't mind some info from another source.


Would your opinion be shared by your step-father by any chance?"

My mother was a 30+ years educator[put 2 and 2 together there], my SIL has been an educator for 25+ years and one of my brothers has a PHD in, you guessed it..EDUCATION.
I don't have a bias towards anything, I deal with 'higher ed educators' on a daily basis due to my profession.
It is my opinion that the vast majority of professors at public universities in America are liberal pompous asses.that is JUST my opinion, but one that is based on working and dealing with them five days out of every week for 30 years.
The dogs chased the cat, I don't argue this[stepfather isn't either].
I'm done

JSTUART,

I think you would better understand how American universities have become leftist indoctrination centers if you had more exposure to them.

The situation has become impossible to exaggerate.

I begin to suspect that they are full of creatures like the greenies here, but generally those in trade associated posts have a slightly firmer grasp on reality.


I am just bored and being picky about accepting anything on face value as I know there is never any 'true' story, merely versions.

Kingston, I am running out of time here as I shall have to go to bed soon, but please note that the Gentleman does say that he expects them to not return if they wander.


I currently have two cats wandering about my yard, one is from next door and the other is from God knows where, both continue to live as neither [bleep] in the sand below my kitchen window.
