Yep. What could possibly go wrong with Obamacare? If you think Obamacare is anything less than one big goddamn, unsustainable slush fund, you deserve to be shot. The moocher class must eventually be dealt with.
As I've stated in the past, my office isn't in the best part of town. Sometimes, I bring my poodle with me, and we go on a mid day walk. Or, rather, we used to. Part of my walk took me through a close by neighborhood, and one house had two German Shepherds that were not restrained in any way that I could see. At first, I suspected they had one of those invisible fences, but one day they charged me. Now, I love dogs and the thought of hurting them makes me sick. So, I made myself big (stood up tall and stretched my arms out) and the dogs stopped short. Next time they didn't, and they weren't playing. I ended up kicking one of them in the head. That seemed to be enough, but it indicated to me that these dogs hadn't been aggressive in the past but that they were becoming more aggressive. I called animal control, and they supposedly sent officers out who talked to the owners. Later that summer, further down the street, a kid got mauled by a German shepherd. I don't know if it was one of those German Shepherds, but dang... I need to research Dog Defense.
This is yet another example of why the fed govt FUBAR and needs to be removed from involvement in any program that involves money and where it goes, especially in civilian life.
Let them borrow their children's backpacks. Without any dogs around they'll be good strength builders, and when dogs come around they'll work as bludgeoning weapons.
Do we have confirmation from a nonwing nut source? I ask because the right wing just loves to make up lies claiming the stimulus paid for electric cars to be made in Finland (it didn't), that it paid to have traffic lights installed in China (completely false), and claimed that stimulus money went to build a solar power plant in Mexico (also completely false). In short, the right wing media lies so often it simply cannot be trusted or believed until fact checked by a creditable source. I googled and all I can find is this one "article" reprinted hundreds of times on blogs and other right wing media so... Where is the confirmation that this isn't just another hoax/lie coming from the same people who do nothing but lie?
It doesn't matter what source is posted here. You aren't going to believe it because you're a goddamn lap poodle for this administration.
What kind of fool stays huddled in their house if there are loose dogs menacing the neighborhood? You fucking call animal control and get it taken care of. Plus, spaying the aggressive dog doesn't stop the immediate problem they are causing. Are people supposed to hide inside until the strays die off and there are none to replace them? It'll never happen as they will never have a 100% success rate.
I can't speak for Nashville, but it's a problem in Flint and Detroit. Of course, in Flint and Detroit, there's also criminals to worry about too.
Yep ... there are parts of Detroit where the people who have to walk through them would count themselves lucky if wild dogs were all they had to worry about. Speaking of which, demolishing the approximately 33,000 abandoned and dangerous structures in Detroit that are havens for crime and people who threaten kids walking to school would be an excellent use of some of this money.
