    'MAGA Names Turn on Kristi Noem Over Dog Killing'

    "In response to the excerpt, far-right activist Laura Loomer posted on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday,

    "Wow. No coming back from this. This is so heartless. She killed a puppy? As a dog lover, that is just too much for me. You don't kill a dog because it's 'useless.' She could have found a loving home for the dog. My dogs are the loves of my life. I would be devastated without them."

    Uh Oh!
    catturd2 chimes in.

    "The anonymous social media account @catturd2, which has amassed more than 2 million followers for its MAGA posts, posted,

    "There's nothing you can say to justify shooting an 18-month-old puppy in the face and killing it. NOTHING! I don't give AF what it did.

    In a separate post, the account added:
    "Just so you know ... If you find a dog 'untrainable' and you feel like the only answer is to shoot it in cold blood - I'll gladly take the dog to live on the Catturd ranch until I can find - a loving home. All my abused rescues are so hard to take care of at first but if you give them maximum love, eventually, they'll turn into the most beautiful, loving gifts you'll ever know."

    Every source I am reading says a dog attack require successive bites. (That means plural. Plural means more than one.).
    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_bite#:~:text=A dog bite is a,include knock-downs and scratches.

    That makes sense because I’ve never heard of putting down a dog for single isolated bites. My sister’s puppy is 16 months and he still does isolated biting every once in a while.
    Are you the same guy who got mad last time I pointed out that your statement is incoherent? How else would you like me to explain this to you do you don’t get your feelings hurt again? I have no idea what you are trying to say in the above sentence. “I’m pretty sure that no…”. What are you trying to say?

    Noem said she considered the pup “less than worthless” after she ruined a pheasant hunt by going “out of her mind with excitement, chasing all those birds and having the time of her life.”

    Need any more evidence that she considered the dog to be a nuisance. How dare the dog ruin her pheasant hunt!
    For all we know there are more. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least.
    Don’t throw stones in glass houses.
    I think she lacks empathy. She’s a sociopath. To her dogs exist to help her hunt. If they can’t perform that function they die.
    So we’re comparing killing domesticated pets to killing wild animals?

    Deer and pigs aren’t pets. (Thought I guess pigs can sometimes be pets.)

    And yes, she’s pretty ****ing evil to have basically zero empathy for a 14 month old puppy who happened to be her pet.
    Can you please repeat the question in (better) English? And try not to get butthurt over that request this time.
    The error in your reasoning is that you assume the number of vets per person is constant between urban and rural areas. I imagine rural areas have more vets per person, particularly considering their services are in higher demand in rural areas.
    So you acknowledge there is more demand for vets in rural areas (on a per capita basis) yet you find it inconceivable that the number of vets per capita in a rural area is higher to meet that demand.
    Just because vets are in higher demand in rural areas doesn’t mean they are scarce. That only happens if the supply doesn’t meet the demand. The fact that there is more demand for vets in rural areas (again, on a per capita basis) suggests there is also more supply to meet that need.
    You’re just going in circles at this point. I’ve already explained that she has no empathy and is basically evil. I’ve also explained that more demand doesn’t mean scarcity.

    Also the fact that you are resorting to name calling suggests to me that you are still upset about the last time I humiliated you. As I said at the time, I took no pleasure in that. So if you think I’m sitting here gleeful about how wiping the floor with you, please rest assured that I am not.

    make whatever excuse you need to convince yourself she's an evil demon. It doesn't matter you probably weren't going to vote for Trump anyway.

    If a dog attacks a person it needs to be put down. That's what happened.
    When it bites somebody she'll get sued and I'm sure the judge will be sympathetic to your he only bit once defence.
    I didn't get mad about any of this.


    I bet she eats babies and worships Satan too.
    :roll:
    Yeah this is mostly you desperately trying to find a reason to say what she did was wrong. I'm not sure that it was and OMBS makes me not want to believe you

    I have to request at least one easy quote of a person here from the left who was blaming the Biden for their dogs.

    for not shooting the dog?

    had Biden shot his dog, said he hated it, I think you would get pushback from some on the left

    What also gets me is the claim about her goat. She said that she had to shoot it twice because the first shot made it jump, messing up her aim. This is physically impossible.

    'HSLF rejects Kristi Noem’s cynical account of killing her family dog'


    "WASHINGTON (April 29, 2024)—South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem continues to dismiss accusations of cruelty in the wake of The Guardian’s report that her upcoming memoir includes passages telling how she ended the lives of her family’s 14-month-old puppy and a goat on their farm. Humane Society Legislative Fund president Sara Amundson responded to
    Governor Noem’s comments with the following statement:

    “Governor Kristi Noem has missed the point. The Republican base is filled with animal lovers who are horrified at her conduct. By doubling down on her actions, she has regrettably and inexplicably put herself in the position of trying to justify the unjustifiable. Noem has characterized these anecdotes as a sign of her willingness to take on tough tasks, but she clearly confused doing the hard thing with doing the wrong thing. There were a dozen different ways she could have handled a rambunctious puppy. We’ve seen candidates for office and elected officials over the years adopt and pose with dogs as part of burnishing their credentials and advancing their political careers. Governor Noem’s the first to take the horrifying step of killing her family puppy and later bragging about it in pursuit of those goals.”

    Would people be as outraged if she killed her fetus?

    I suppose it is best to let the dog shiver in fear in the back of a car, sensing "all is not well". Then Rover is dragged into a room with the smell of death.
    Yes Rover is quietly put to sleep, like a murderer on death row.

    Precisely why she committed an unforced error. Unnecessary! Conservatives don't need that type of leadership. You need to be wise in a den of serpents!

    Nothing directly yet from his diarrhea mouth so take it for what it's worth.

    Donald Trump 'Disappointed' In 'Puppy Killer' Kristi Noem As She Loses Shot At Being VP Pick

    "Sources close to Trump revealed to the New York Post that the ex-president's team was shocked to hear of Noem's detailed story about how she shot and killed her dog in the book.

    An insider said, "She was already unlikely to be picked as VP, but had a shot. After this, it's just impossible." Noem was rumored to be an option for Trump's Vice President position.

    Another source told the publication that the former US president "likes Kristi a lot" but was very "disappointed" to hear the story about her dog.

    The source added, "It certainly has not enhanced her chances, but no decision has been made concerning any of the VP candidates."

    Her unforced error was writing about it in her book.

    She thought she was applying for VP. The cruelty was supposed to be a hiring feature. Have faith, it might still be since Agent Oranges doesn't like doges.

    Yeah. What a shame that she revealed that she’s a brain dead dipshit! She “had no other option”. Only a country person would understand!

    Noem said that Cricket was in her truck and got out and killed the chickens.
    I doubt she had the dog that she hated with a passion in the cab with her and put her in the open back.
    Damn that dumb dog, a fowl hunter that went after chickens.
    Either way it's Noem's fault the dog escaped.

    I don't think it's a shame at all. If she isn't smart enough to know it was a bad idea to write about killing a dog, then she certainly doesn't need to be the VP.
