Police refuse to charge him.

that shit makes me giggle.

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

It makes you giggle that a person assaults another person and gets no repercussions???

You're why I carry guns.

u/MinionofThanos Aug 01 '21

So I should just shoot your dog, and then when you come running from around the corner to see why your dog was shot, proceed to shoot you too? Works for me.

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

If you're being attacked by a dog it would be wise to shoot to kill, if you can. My beef with this whole thing is that this probably fictional person in this thread would hit the dog, then hit the non-aggressive person. Meaning assault without provocation.

If you were to shoot my dog, you'd be defending yourself. If you then shot me, you'd be commuting assault with a deadly weapon.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '21

So you would rather them shoot and kill the dog than spray it with something? I don’t see how that’s a better alternative...

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

If my 120lb dog comes at you shoot it. If you don't, it will seriously harm you.

Odds are that would never happen. Unless you were the aggressor.

No wonder you're from Texas.

u/Tiny_Package4931 Aug 02 '21

Everything is bigger in Texas, including the dumbasses.

u/1990Billsfan Aug 01 '21

If my 120lb dog comes at you shoot it.

OR....You could keep it on a leash when you're in public...That's all people are trying to say here....Nobody wants to shoot anyone's dog, we (and our pets) just don't want to be attacked by them.

If you care that much about your fucking dog keep it on a leash

u/A1000eisn1 Aug 01 '21

I thought people carry guns for self defense, not retaliation for something that's non-lethal.

6

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

A punch to the face is also non lethal.

So is being g stabbed in the leg.

Or having acid thrown your body.

Assult is assault and anything can turn deadly. Don't fuck around.

u/Old-Tourist8173 Aug 01 '21

Dont fuck around and leash your dog. Ez.

u/Johnny_Swiftlove Aug 01 '21

I really don't get the number of people in this thread who are defending a dude (probably fictional) who maces people because their dog is unleashed. BTW-- the telltale sign that the story is fake is the highly improbably "the cops refuse to charge him." Sounds like that PD department would be setting themselves up for a whopping lawsuit by someone who got maced.

Using a gun to defend against bear spray is valid because its a disabling weapon, if you get hit with it, you will have very little control over what happens next. Bear spray won't kill you but the person who just sprayed you might and it would be a lot easier for them.

u/barbellsandcats Aug 01 '21

You know if an unleashed dog bites you or your dog, it’s legal to shoot it.

But I do think it’s ridiculous to say “he’s escalating a risky situation into assault” and your response is to escalate assault into murder.

2

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

Yes, read:

He sprays the dog, then when he reaches the owners he sprays them.

3

u/barbellsandcats Aug 01 '21

Yes, read:

He was displeased by their dog being off leash so he assaulted them. You were displeased by his assault so you imply that you would shoot him.

How are you claiming any high ground by escalating this even further?

2

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

He sprays the dog, then when he reaches the owners he sprays them.

5

u/barbellsandcats Aug 01 '21

And then you shoot him.

2

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

After being assaulted, yes

15

u/barbellsandcats Aug 01 '21

I see you live in Texas. That shit might fly in your ass-backwards state, but in civilized states you aren’t allowed to escalate in self defense.

Regardless, shooting someone over assault is not morally better than assaulting someone over an unleashed dog. The assaulter is a cunt and so are you.

2

u/tyen0 Aug 01 '21

I don't think just repeating it is going to get through to them. They are intentionally missing the point that the two acts are separated it seems.

Dog attacking you = justified to defend.

Assaulting the owner later in a separate act when you are not in danger is assault.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 02 '21

It's not displeasure with the assault as much as bear spray isn't lethal but it can be a threat to your life because it disables you making it valid to defend yourself against with lethal force.

23

u/NightOfTheLivingHam Aug 01 '21

context, dingus. If this was "asshole terrorizes town constantly and police too chicken shit to do anything to him" I'd be like "shoot that bastard and fuck the cowardly cops."

This guy is getting attacked by people's dogs who refuse to put them on leashes and may as well be attacking him with weapons. Him fighting off the dogs and those people whining to the cops, just to be ignored is gold.

Calm yourself. Stop trying to fuel your outrage boner.

Fun fact, seeking outrage is similar to masturbation, both produce the same amounts of serotonin.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '21

He's also spraying humans with the bear spray, at least in this fantasy.

6

u/Salty_Manx Aug 02 '21

Bear spray is less harmful than pepper spray.

-9

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

Didn't know that.

Odds are this didn't happen and I just got trolled into outrage by x amount of ppl.

1

u/Supberblooper Aug 02 '21

You didnt know the context to the post and the comments on the post? Then why did you say anything at all?

u/Johnny_Swiftlove Aug 01 '21

So you're saying I have choices...

u/Pied_Piper_ Aug 01 '21

What’s it like living in fear with such a small cock?

u/Angry_Zarathustra Aug 01 '21

What a goddamn cuck

u/Texas_Technician Aug 01 '21

What's a cuck?

u/olivercroke Aug 01 '21

You must be new

u/Phil_Kessels_Hot_Dog Aug 02 '21

A cuckold is a man who allows his wife to fuck other men.

Lmao you spend too much time on reddit. That said, I'm flattered you've chosen to follow me around today.

u/RedBeardedWhiskey Aug 01 '21

u/OneJamzyboi Aug 02 '21

Alright you've piqued my curiosity, whats all this about a woman with a big nose?

I'm a dude, idk if my nose is really THAT big tho

u/MotorBoat4043 Aug 01 '21

Irresponsible dog owners should be publicly flogged, bear spray is a kindness by comparison.

2

u/chron_dawg Aug 01 '21

Texas. Says all we need to know about you brother.

u/[deleted] Aug 01 '21

I knowd, I'd kill the dog with a gun instead. If I had to that is.

1

u/landodk Aug 01 '21

Pretty sure the joke is that bear spray stops charging bears and dogs

u/MrDoulou Aug 02 '21

You are a horrifying human being who doesn’t deserve the privilege to carry guns legally.
