What happened to the @#$%Dog Post?

RugerNinerRugerNiner Member Posts: 12,637 ✭✭✭
edited January 2004 in General Discussion
Six Pages were posted before I posted and didn't get POOFED.

I have to assume that I was the cause of it getting poofed even though I did no name calling. Only Logical Reasoning.

    Took me a long time to read,and I only noticed one poster getting emotional. It wasn't you. Who would believe me though? I'm a newbie. [8D]

    I made some posts and then just watched from the sidlines.

    I wondered if it was going to be poofed.

    Tap, there was another post involving a rifle purchased by DWS, that was also poofed though for the life of me, I cannot think why.

    It was a great thread for the first 4 pages. On pages 5 and 6 it was running out of gas.
    It was a good subject for discussion and I enjoyed reading it. I made one minor post but mostly stayed in the foxhole. Lots of bullets whizzing overhead, though.

    We're taking our neighbor before the council Feb 25th for code enforcement on this same issue. In spite of a leash law, both he and his wife let their four dogs plus a Vietnamese pig run wild after dark to crap up the neighborhood and scare and intimidate pedestrians and golfers on the fairway during the day. They also run "pet" deer. In this gated semi autonomous community we're not permitted to put up fences to preserve the woodsy appearance. Each time they're caught its a $50 fine. The owners are real sneaks about how and when they release their excrement generators since they've received complaints before.
    This last snowfall demonstrated the extent of their activity. My lot looked like a barnyard 80% covered with pig and dog tracks plus a lot of leavings. Our police saw it and were convinced these hardnosed people are thumbing their noses at the neighborhood despite recent warnings.
    I thought some ExLax on our lot might be a good idea but I wouldnt want to punish the foxes and deer. Any constructive ideas would be welcome as I doubt these people will change their spots.

    I guess the admin or David stepped in and saved us from ourselves...again. Personally, I'm glad it's gone.

    There was some good stuff in that thread--lots of not so good also. Lots of character shown that apparently it took that emotional of a subject to bring forth. We all learned something we didn't know before about some folks.

    Anyway, I will try to post less gut-wrenching topics...at least for a while.

    Rafter-S,
    I supported you all the way with Logical Reasoning.
    I think it got poofed because of very sensitive issue with one of the posters came to light. An issue that is apparently very emotional for that person. I also think his anger was misdirected towards you because of an issue of his that is unresolved.

    Maybe a POOF was best, if not for all, at least for that one poster.
    If that is why it was Poofed, then I would have to agree.
    I think there was to much pain coming to the surface for that person.

    Unless you got to read the last half-dozen posts or more then you really wouldn't know what I was talking about.

    Who's the emotional person in question? I think a poof wasn't necessary in the least.

    Rafter-S,
    I supported you all the way with Logical Reasoning.

    Regretfully, I missed your Logical Reasoning for this support. This is truly unfortunate, because for six pages of posts and despite numerous requests for same, no facts with which to formulate such reasoning were forthcoming (oddly, not even from the thread author). Certainly, there were numerous C&Ps and anecdotes about feral dogs and the damage they can do and the differences between CO-OP and WalMart shopper mentality, but no one was able to say just how they determined that the shooting of these particular dogs was justified. Of course, if the sum total of your Logical Reasoning is that any unknown and uninvited dog found on your rural property is by definition feral and therefore a menace to be eliminated, please say so, so that at least we can know that we disagree on principle rather than on the facts of the matter, in which case your claim to Logical Reasoning would be false.

    I didn't miss this topic, but I did choose not to respond at the time. However, let it be known..My hunting woods were useless during 2001 and 2002 because of dogs..2003 has been a great year..I've been sucessful every trip. You decide why if you like, ignore it if you prefer..Maybe I just shoot better recently.

    Perhaps you should put this to the board resident sociologist who suggested it in the first place, old06. Personally, I think it is as ludicrous as you do. By the way, what does 'vision of the future' mean in this context? I don't get the relevance here.

    7mm nut: In this case, you would have to advocate blowing away the mailman because two years ago someone stole the tv from your living room.

    Well, you know..you right guys..This is an emotional issue that has run its course and should be dropped..like..the second ammendment for instance..Gawd..all the same thing all over and over..And all the time, we know who is right, all dem libs who know we out killing the world. If anyone has a conflicting idea..who da he** he is?? We don't wanna bruise any feelings, we don't wanna make dem wet backs mad, don't wanna hurt any little owly birds..it not nice to disagree..this country made up of people who go along, not anyone who gots a mind..If a dog want to take over your livlihood, ruin your whole life and the way you live it..you leave that cute little puppy alone..This HIS world, not yours. Who da H*** you think you is anyway???? You secondary..To the owls, to the dogs, to the trees, to the Mexicans, the Canadians, the Mid easterners, to any damn thing that moves..You are worthless, you have no right to think, to have an opinion. Your purpose is to supply the money to take care of everything you are not.. I AM YOU..And I'm damn sick of it..You don't like it, put it where it do you some good. I'm going to go shoot a damn dog and cut down a tree.
