Have you killed someone else's pet dog or cat?

Correct me if I'm wrong Sandy, but if I kill all the golfers, they're gonna lock me up and throw away the key.

Good to know I can go take a bat to my neighbor's motorcycle because it makes too much noise at night. If something is a nuisance just get rid of it who cares if it is someone's property.

Does this count. I was riding my bike on the right side of the road heading east when a dog on the opposite side of the roads spots me and comes after me. He just got into the road and a truck heading west runs right over the top of him. I kinda felt like this dog got what he deserved.

Also, there is no personal threat of attack to you or your loved ones. So killing a pit bull who is attacking your kid does not count.

When I was in high school, my neighbor blew another neighbor's little yappy dog to hell with a 20 gauge shotgun. The dog annoyed the entire neighborhood, including my family, but it probably didn't deserve such a bloody death.

My neighbor shot the dog, went to the lady's house and handed her 200 bucks. Nobody even called the cops, although the blast must have been heard all over the neighborhood.

Suburb of Salt Lake. Not rural at all.

Someone who would walk out in the middle of a city neighborhood and kill his neighbor's little dog with a shotgun because it is yappy, is a psychopath.

The numbers related to murder and animal cruelty suggest that there are a lot of psychopaths in our (USA) midst.

I saw my dad whack one on the head with a shovel. That was pretty effective (and disturbing).

I ran over a skunk once. That was unpleasant.

Oh yeah. He was nuts. And his family had a lot of guns. Choosing the 20 gauge was extra cruel. There wasn't anything left but fluff, since he shot it at a distance of about 18 inches.

It was my friend's older brother, not an adult at the time (or maybe 18 years old, but you get the point). I know he ended up getting treated for severe psychiatric problems, and I believe he was institutionalized at one point. Sad.
