You’d shoot someone’s dog in their fenced backyard because you were irresponsible enough to allow your cat to roam loose in the neighborhood resulting in the cat jumping into the fenced area with the dog?
Several questions,concerns and statements arise from this....
1. You have many issues and problems outside of cat ownership....seek help....really...
2. I’m glad I’m not your neighbor...
3. A .204 is a terrible caliber choice......definitely brings your judgement on all issues into question......
Yes. I would definitely shoot your dog in your yard. Yes, I know I have “issues” - I like my cat . . . a lot.
Blam. Take him to the garbage dump. Done. One less varmint in the neighborhood. Then, you can spend the day trying to get the local constable to spring for ballistics testing and a search warrant to make something of it. My bet, they will ring every doorbell within the block and then tell you they have done what they can.
And, the 204 is a perfect caliber for the job. Shows what you know.
