It’s weird...if you dearly love your dog, you won’t need “courage”....you’ll just *do* without thinking.
I didn’t “plan” it.
The goon pulled out his pistol, cocked the hammer and aimed it at my dog.
The next thing I knew, the dog and I were flat on the floor and and I was yelling “Shoot -me- you ******* coward!”
[obviously, he did not]
The weird thing was that I felt absolutely no fear.....just cold, numb, determined rage.
I pray to God that NONE of us here EVER have to be in that position.
I was lucky.
I agree about those who abuse animals, regardless of religion, race, creed or -position-.
You just need some armor-piercing ammo that will go through the car door, the “bullet-proof” vest and his backup standing behind him and ensure that their bodycount is higher than yours.
If you check the Law Enforcement Memorial, you’ll find an explosion in LEOs killed beginning in 1920, that is, coinciding with Prohibition. One hates to say it but a lot of LEOs are being killed today by people who are simply defending what had been their rights before the explosion of government intrusion and busybody laws. It is a message the government has so far responded to only with more force.
