Abandoned Dogs Roam Detroit in Packs as Humans Dwindle

I've noticed that mixed-breed junkyard dogs get treated differently by the streets than friendly Golden Retrievers who like children.

Unless you own a junkyard.

[piscator]

Even if you own a junkyard you don't take your junkyard dogs home at night so they can play with the kids and mooch from the table and sleep by the fireplace.

[laklak]

True, they're working dogs. Unlike mine, who consider climbing up on the couch "work".

So...

I've tried desperately poor and found it didn't suit my temperament.

Indeed. And would you have voluntarily remained in an area where desperately poor was the standard of living without a government subsidy that makes remaining where you are, and remaining desperately poor, easier than packing up, moving and going to work somewhere else where a higher standard of living was available?

No, I moved to where the money was.

Send in PETA, they kill 90% of all the animals they rescue. Detroit will be dog-free in a week!

Leopards love eating dogs. Release a few in the city...

What the hell is it with dogs? I don't get it.

I can understand people getting attached to their own dogs, but loose feral dogs, I would have automatically rounded up and killed. There was something on tv the other day about dogs in Moscow, commuting round the city on the underground trains, and people tolerate them, and give them nik-naks as they travel.
So people must be picking up fleas on the Moscow underground. Nice. Apparently Moscow is full of stray dogs. Urban foxes I can just about tolerate. They make SOME effort to avoid humans. But dogs are in a different class. I would wipe em out.

Well, I do have to say that they probably are useful in controlling the feral cat problem....

Yeh, maybe, but that's good news for rats and mice.

They have a serious money-making tourist venue they are ignoring. I'd pay money to be allowed to take my silenced Colt M4, IR laser, thermal sight and dual PVS-14s to Detroit and sneak around in the dark whacking feral ******. It'd be just as much fun as whacking feral ***** in Texas, but you'd get some good urban combat movement training in at the same time.

Hey, I just thought of a way to get Seth visited by the FBI

That is the sort of post a responsible Forum admin should report, given there's both a threat to kill and so forth. A gun nut goes berserk and Seth stops posting....ten peoples lives cut short....because good folk tend to treat everything a joke around here. Not that I'm worried, much, not my country.
