That is a far more amusing interpretation than my original intent. From now on that's exactly what I meant.

I mean I don’t like her… but if she did off Trump….

Well, I might dislike her a little less. I just hope she’s stupid enough to do it before being sworn in…

Would be kinda funny so see "does the Vice President also have full and total immunity" make its way to the corrupt SCOTUS.

She's a Republican. I'm amazed that doesn't happen more often.

I’m more worried about all the other citizens she would decide to euthanize because she doesn’t like them.

Remember, she’d be a heartbeat away from the presidency.

Well yes and also they are the rich

Jonkler reference?

This is dogwhistling that she is ready to start executing people. Socialists, LGBT, and so on. She wants people who see SCOTUS deliberating on the presidential immunity to put two and two together. "Elect me and I will execute the dangerous animals."

Id settle for a ditch being feasted on by ravens.

This was my first thought. My family has always had dogs, from lap dogs to guard dogs on the farm, ready to attack brown bears, and they've never lashed out against us at that age. The story just illustrates how hopelessly incompetent she is in training her own dog. Imagine anyone so incompetent taking ovet the country if Trump is elected and croaks in the office. She makes Truml look like a "stable genius". Actually, now that I think of it, that may be the plan...

"pro-life" is like "trickle down economics" it's all a lie.

Why do Americans do this with their politicians? This person is terrible, Trump is terrible, but since at least 2008 it seems like this kinda elementary school insult has become peak political commentary in the states...

Maybe I'm just having a hard time imagining someone deranged enough to both kill a pet puppy and also tell the world about it.

But I 100% assume she is dogwhistling to the other Repubs that she will execute their political opponents. She is willing to murder socialists, LGBT people, and so on down their list of "undesirables."

Either that or she is actually deranged enough to kill a puppy for her failure to train it and still believe she is in the right. If that's the case she'd be executing people anyway.

I can't speak for others, but I'll tell you why I downvoted you.

Right now my parents have two springer spaniels. They are about 7 months old and they've nipped me a few times because they playfight constantly and that's what young dogs do. It's how they explore the world. Most of the time when they're putting my hands in their mouth they're quite gentle, but sometimes they get excited and rough enough to be briefly painful. They are not dangerously aggressive by any reasonable definition and they aren't biting with serious intent. They've never broken/marked skin and when you say Ouch or Stop they calm down and behave. It's the dog equivalent of one kid pushing down another kid in the playground, i.e. they're learning how to play and it's not justification for being shot and killed.

Kristi was training the dog to hunt and kill birds - that's specifically mentioned. She then took this young, partially-trained dog to a farm with chickens without a leash. "Chickens = the birds I'm being told to kill" in the mind of the dog, which makes sense because chickens are birds. Then Kristi grabbed the dog by the collar, and the dog turned around to bite her once. There's no word on how serious the bite was (Kristi makes no mention about having to seek medical attention for instance), and it's not as if the dog kept on attacking her. There's no story about this dog seeking out Kristi, her kids, or any other humans to bite them on any other occasion so labelling the dog as aggressive to humans isn't a reasonable conclusion. She says she "hated the dog", which is already kind of odd and she also talks about hating the goat she shot twice and killed. I don't think most people hate their pets/farm animals even if they reasonably decide they must be put down. Anyways, after that one incident she chose to kill the dog herself. Not attempt to teach it to be calm, not leash train it, not wait for it to grow out of being an adolescent into an calmer adult dog. That summary execution is why animal lovers and people who hunt with dogs are expressing disgust with her decision.

The reason I made a political meme about it is she says she wants to carry that attitude into politics. She's deliberately recording and repeating that story as proof that she's willing to do "difficult, messy, and ugly" things. Given tales like Trump asking troops to kill or at least wound racial justice protesters in Seattle and Portland during his time in office it's an attitude at least worth noting because "difficult, messy, ugly" decisions -may- include stuff like that.

She was literally training this puppy to hunt water fowl. She didn't do the proper job of training her puppy to differentiate between the job of water fowl and chickens and when the time was appropriate, also puppy and still learning.

She's currently trying and failing to train the dog to kill birds correctly and then just let the dog loose among a whole slew of chickens, a pup that's been in training to track and kill birds mind you, loose amongst the chickens. Don't know about you and how much time you've had with dogs but they aren't exactly great with identifying between a duck and a chicken, it's a bird and it's been taught to kill birds.

That's right there is just bad dog ownership there just like I know that when I was raising dogs to help with coyote hunting, you'd better believe that I didn't bring them to the fucking dog park because they were trained to be aggressive around certain types of animals and I'm not that stupid to just let them loose among things that could be mistaken for the thing I helped teach them to hunt. Again, being a good dog owner.

Now instead of owning up to her mistakes as a shitty animal trainer that didn't control her own damn dog, she just shot the damn thing for doing what what she was training it to do and buried it. Again, bad fucking dog ownership.

Reason for my downvote:

My old boss lived on a farm and had a bird dog. She chased and killed a chicken. He told her ‘no!’, disciplined her, and trained her that killing chickens was wrong. She never killed a chicken again.

For fuck’s sake, it was a puppy, and this was its first offense. Try TRAINING YOUR DOG FIRST.

Most people on this planet today didn't grow up on a farm, don't hunt, don't fish, but eat meat.
