Nope, I do not believe in Anarchy, I believe in a society governed by laws
to protect my family from people like you.

When the system protects people whose animals destroy property, is that not
anarchy?

Maybe they just feel that you're one of those perpetually belligerent
A-holes who does nothing but complain about trivial matters, and
respond accordingly. Maybe they're waiting to catch you taking the law
into your own hands so they can come and cart you off to a place where
no one has to hear you complain again.


How's that for a hypothetical?

Trivial? Not to me, or anyone else who puts hundreds of hours worth of work
into a garden. Who are YOU to tell other people what's trivial? What if you
collected classic cars, spent hours restoring and waxing them, and my cat
jumped on them constantly and scratched them? Would that be trivial to you?

No, not to me, but it probably would be for the cops, and that's the
whole point. What little "hobbies" you and I may have, are trivial
when put into perspective of the real problems in society.

Hey....now we're getting somewhere. What if my cat did what I mentioned, the
cops were to busy or uninterested to help, the animal control guy was an
idiot, and when you spoke to me about the problem, I said "Go ****
yourself - it's just a few scratches". Assume this went on for a month or
two. What would YOU do? Explore your dark side. We all have one. Be honest
for once in your life, Dave. What would you REALLY do?

Doug,
Why do you think they have small claims court? In case you are not familiar
it is so people will not take the law into their own hands.

Great. You get paid for the damage, but the animal still exists, as does its
owner. No, John. The Good Way is to "vanish" the animal. Not a big scene -
just "vanish". Quietly.

As I asked elsewhere in this thread: "Dog? What dog?"

Couldn't resist jumping in here, 'cause this actually happened to me. The car
was a brand new Saab. I trapped the cat and took it to the animal shelter. Told
them the story. They wanted to know only the street the cat came from. I never
saw the cat again. The owner must not have been concerned as she would have only
had to call the animal shelter to get her cat back.

Two questions:
1) What kind of bait did you use?
2) "Where there's smoke, there's a SAAB". The Car Talk guys on NPR love that
line. Is it true?
