How about this: I'm creating a new art form. It's sort of like
etchings.
I
use a key on the side of your car. It won't be just a scratch, mind
you.
It'll be an actual picture. This is identical to your allowing your
dog
to
crap on my lawn. Is my new art form OK with you?



Another strawman?

You also seem to be unable to grasp the difference between deliberate
and malicious intent, and incidental, consequential actions.

The dog craps because that's a natural act. In some places, it's
illegal to allow a dog to roam loose. In other places it's perfectly
acceptable (and legal). I suggest you move to one of those uptight
areas where people share your outrage at such trivial incidents.

Coprophilia: marked interest in excrement, especially the use of feces or
filth for sexual excitement.

Interesting? But I fail to see the relevance. Are you fixated with
doggie doo?


This hobby is fine for some, but dog owners should ask before sharing
their
fixation with others.

I would challenge that you seem to be the one projecting the fixation
with dog poop. You are the one making the big deal about it. Most
other people just let nature take its course.

Let nature take its course? That's what I've been saying all along. But,
here's the difference: I acknowledge that nature sometimes works in ways
that are sad. I don't think it's funny when I see a lion kill a gazelle on
TV, but as you say, "**** happens". Usually, the gazelle which ends up as lu
nch made some sort of mistake, not unlike some dogs.
