The dog is at a great vet (we have been there with Niko for emergency reasons) and I think the vet is adopting the dog (dont recall if it says that). He truly is trying to convince everyone that he was doing a mercy kill!!
And the bail is only set at $25,000 while Plaxico Burres, the NY Giants player who is charged with possession of an unlicensed handgun, has $100,000 bail. I mean seriously. WTF?
I guess a gun that was not used in any crime is more dangerous than a person who actually bludgeons a living animal with a sledgehammer.
Mercy killing: quick and painless when there are no other options
Seriously, take the dog to a vet or humane society if you think something's wrong...
Dave, I think the law officials need to catch up on their psychological studies. I think everyone knows that those who practice cruelty on animals tend to move onto humans pretty easily. Yet an unused weapon, as Lindsay said, is apparently more dangerous. *sigh*~
I think THE OWNER might be sick and poisoned (in the head). Would anyone be upset if I drove to Atlanta with a sledgehammer and beat this guy to within inches of his death and just left him in a cold park to suffer?
It really makes me wish we lived in the middle ages where the law was 'an eye for an eye'.
If I'm not mistaken, they take the income of the person into account when setting bail, so they'd set the bail higher for someone with a large income, like a professional athlete.
But I agree, an unlicensed gun really is small potatoes.
Yeah income and flight risk is taken into account but at least around here there's a minimum bail for most offenses. I think the minimums should be raised.

yeah... i know.
I have a feeling I am going to have nightmares tonight. Stuff like this just makes my heart ache.

I'd say let the dog have his justice, but he might just forgive the asshole.
