I wasn't making threats, just simply stating the fact that if you want to be barbaric and harm a pet. Then you'd better know the demeanor of the owner or your front shrubs might come alive when you walk out your door and leave you with a feeding tube, breathing machine, and/or deep flesh wounds.
A judge would not (for fear of losing his job) side with a dog killer without proof that the dead dog was to blame and that the owner was warned about it. Without proof you're probably going to end up with $1000's in fines and/or imprisonment for up to 5 years!
I sit back and listen to guys whine, piss, and moan of their livestock, as well as wild animals being victims of dogs and cats when there are coyotes, bobcats, cougars, bears, fox, oppossum, skunks, weasels, raccoons, feral hogs, wolves, raptors, etc. that will be more efficient killers of your little chickens and wild quail.BOO HOOOOOO! Your animals will surely be killed anyways(unless you keep them penned up)!
So when someone is running bears, rabbits, coyotes, rabbits, etc. with dogs and it runs across your property line, is the dog tresspassing? NOPE.
Yes pets should be leashed, but $hit happens.
This is a hunting forum. Shooting someones pet off your back porch is not hunting.
