Yeah, right...
*any gun humpers getting triggered about this are cordially invited to piss off...fewer guns and restricted access to them prevents this kind of lunacy...for fuck's sake, the goddamn "Wild West" had ordinances where the local sheriff could collect guns from people entering the town. America 2021...so great you need to be armed and on a hair trigger to survive walking the fucking dog.
Yeah, I guess I am feeling more triggered by this story than most...I can't take this place much longer, its horrible for my health and well-being.

So the dog barked at him. Big deal, he was safely in his vehicle. I hope his life sentence in prison is utter misery.
