Dumb and Dumber

The headline reads “Dog shot at condo complex after ‘threat’ by sniper."

Why did the sniper shoot the dog?  Because its Master didn’t pick up the dog’s business after the dog completed depositing its business on the lawn.  Does that justify the sniper’s shooting the dog?  Far from it, though it does justify my labeling the sniper a despicable dumbass.  Especially when you consider that in a warning note, which the sniper left on car windshields, the sniper stated dogs would be shot if their Masters didn’t police the business deposited by dogs on lawns.  Rather than resorting to the despicable act of shooting the dogs, which the sniper lays in wait for, why doesn’t the sniper be a man and just politely confront the Masters who don’t police the dog doo doo their dogs leave behind?  Granted, picking up dog shit isn’t one of my favorite things to do, but I do it.  Not because there is a law that states I have to, but because I do not want my dog’s business left in some other individual’s yard, and because I would hope that other dog owners would respect my yard.

Which leads me to the dumber portion.  Reading the article, I could not find one reference to a Master’s responsibiliy for picking up after their dog deposits their business on another individuals lawn or property.  The article is all woe is me, poor Master, bad sniper (and the sniper is bad, and a dumbass), and I don’t feel safe.

Though the sniper is a despicable dumbass, the Masters who let their dogs shit willy nilly on property that is not their own, and then leave their dogs calling card as evidence of their passing by, are dumber, but not quite as despicable.
