No court today. He owns his own plane. No excuse not to campaign. Except he’s tired.

How can he be tired he sleeps all the time in court as reported by you.

Thank you.

Potential VP candidate Kristi Noem says in new book that she once took her 14 month old puppy to a gravel pit and executed it with a gun because she “hated” it and it was no good as a hunting dog.

Even righties on Twitter are baffled by why she would admit this.

There are dog shelters in every state. Don’t kill your young dogs!

(Gonna be interesting to see if our knee jerk righties go pro-dog execution now).

As per the SPCA "Each year, approximately 920,000 shelter animals are euthanized ( ..."

Edited for clarity that is the total of dogs and cats.

I doubt the shelters are shooting them in the face in a gravel pit.

Even right wing troll Catturd (who just accidentally ran over his dog) has turned on the crazy bitch:

In her defense, she did also say the dog was dangerous and aggressive to people and livestock, totally unsuitable as hunting dog or a farm dog or a pet. And that's life on a farm, she reckons.

To some people, that makes her look tough with the ability to make the hard choices. To other people, it makes her look like a psychopath.

SHe could've at least softened her language a bit, assuming her actions were acceptable. I've never grown up on a farm, so I don't know. But, would it have been too much trouble to call the vet for euthanasia?

Growing up on a farm most kids are in 4H. They get a baby pig or cow and raise it almost as a pet. Keep it clean, feed it and track how much it eats and learn all about the breed. A year later it goes to the 4H show gets auctioned off and they get the money and, depending on their parents, they may have to pay for the feed it ate. From the auction if their animal is a steer or swine the animal is butchered and eaten by the person who bought it. Often the top judged animals are bought by a local butcher shop and advertised for sale since the pampered animals are often very tender. Think Kobe beef.

Farm kids have a different view of the death of an animal than city kids.

And I'm not taking anything away from that. That's the circle of life and the circle of farm life. But, do they shoot the animal in a gravel pit, or do they ship it to the local slaughterhouse to be dispatched under humane conditions?
