She decided to go ahead and kill the goat, too. She writes that the goat survived the first shot, so she went back to the truck, got another shell, then shot him again, killing him.
I can kinda see “shot an old horse or two” as being a positive thing, okay you got over the squeamishness of it and did a sick animal a mercy.
Winging a goat and gosh I gotta go get more ammo to finish this one off, well that’s starting to get a little peculiar.
LIKING IT SO MUCH THAT YOU WENT OUT AND GOT A NEW PUPPY SO YOU COULD DO IT AGAIN, well hoooly fuck we are getting into something entirely else now aren’t we?
I’ve seen enough Criminal Minds to know what’s going on.
A quote I heard somewhere that always sticks with me “Serial killers will groom themselves to become mass murderers”
It always starts with something small, and they always move up, at every point knowing full well what’s going on and letting it happen.
Yeah sometimes animals need to be put down out in the country.
But she just completely failed to raise that dog to do what she wanted, completely impatient, then decided the only recourse was to shoot it.
Then just decided while she was out killin’ to shoot a “mean” goat too? Like if she hadn’t decided to kill the dog she wouldn’t have killed the goat? Bloodlust is what it sounds like.
Yeah, putting down a dog that bites people is sometimes the only option, but the way it was worded sounded more like “it wasn’t a golden genius and I didn’t like it, so I shot it instead of putting any effort into training it”
The goat she also killed
She killed a her dog which was young because she is a joke of a owner who thought a dog would just magically train itself…with a shotgun, because she’s a fucking idiot. Then she also killed a goat, also with a shotgun… because she’s a fucking idiot. Euthanizing animals sucks, and when it’s done properly, it’s quick, and painless. People like her, have no fucking clue how to do so, and shouldn’t be allowed to own animals or guns for that matter.
TL;DR, she’s a fucking idiot.
But like, why? Also why admit to it? Is she just a moron or something? Is there a lore reason for this?
Why kill the dog? It didn’t listen to her, embarrassed her, and she couldn’t have that. Why admit to it? People already knew about it; she thought she could get in front of the story by spinning it as “hard decisions had to be made” rather than “sociopath murders dog.”
I’ve heard two good explanations as to why she’d publicize such a story:
-
She botched a common Republican technique by choosing the wrong victim to villainize (full explanation here)
-
There are witnesses to the puppy murder (construction crew) so this is her way of getting ahead of the story before someone else tells it (AFAIK so far we’ve only heard her version; maybe reality is even worse)
