1. I try to ignore this type of trolling.
The OP (judging the later posts) doesn't even have the real talent to fan the flames of a flamewar. There's a point behind the OP's orig post, but the OP won't get to it.

2. You know, I can be on the lounge, .....

...and having a great time, then all of the sudden, someone starts a fishing expedition like that post, and some on the lounge start jumping to it, and start giving a ridiculous post credence, simply by posting to it. Someone should have called the original poster out from the beginning, and asked the poster, "just what is the purpose of this post, other than to let us know you would kill you puppy for monetary concerns?" I'm sorry, I just don't get it.

3. Fishing expedition is exactly what that was.
Funny how so many can't recognize useless flamebait when they see it, and how they never notice the usual suspects showing up to fan it.

4. I suspect a "'puke" posted it, too
the lounge is a great place for trolls to hange out, post their anti-progressive BS, and build up their post counts.

5. "Me me me, I come first!"

A companion animal isn't a convenience to take care of whenever you feel like it. Giving up because you feel like your pet isn't worth it is just being a lazy selfish ass.

And this poster's reasoning is fucked up anyway. "Me first and whatever is left over to everyone else." What a pathetic, selfish way to live.

6. And a hearty "screw you" to these posts
#. OK, let me be more specific.

Your puppy is 3 month old. It has a condition that would lead to its death in 90% of cases. There is a complex treament that has a success rate of 75%. When it works your puppy is like new. It costs 5ks.

#. 3 months old? euthanize and try again.



When I worked at the local vet in my old town, breeders like this came in all the time. They'd dock and crop and if the dog died? Oh well, try again in the next litter.

7. "Me first and whatever is left over to everyone else." ....
Yep, sounds like a Republican philosophy of life to me, which probably means the originator of that thread....:think:

8. I'm locking this thread
This thread is being used to post personal attacks essentially by proxy, that is not an appropriate use of the DU Groups.

Thanks.
