It would be funny if one of them arrested the shooter on the spot

There must be real consequences. We need leadership that actually has the balls to deal with this sort of trash.
/and no, I'm not holding my breath or expecting anything to actually happen
I've been to places with bison, and people just can't seem to keep a respectful distance. I've seen multiple instances (encroachment, not goring).
They sure do like to punch down.
Military will lose tons of public support for turning on us. All those military holidays? They won't be a thing to celebrate.
I'll take their money. I won't cut them any breaks though.
In theory, the next administration would pardon them. In theory.
Monkey's paw: troops are immortal.
Would actually suck for them too. Reminds me of the line in 300: "May you live forever." It is most certainly not a blessing.
Now is the time for malicious compliance
but that you gave them the best life you could. And maybe realize that giving another pet a good life doesn’t mean you’re replacing or forgetting your last one.
I've told myself that the cats under my care are the top 1% of the 1% of animals. I would go as far as saying that they have it better than most of the 8B people on this planet. They have comfort, safety, abundance, and entertainment. I go the extra mile for them to ensure that they have a high quality of life.
When I have gotten another cat after one died, it was never a replacement. It was giving a home to cat who needed one. A cat sitting in a shelter waiting for their chance. And I tend to adopt animals that are harder to place due to age or other factors (e.g. "does not get along with dogs or kids") that are a non-issue for me.
Losing them is hard, but not adopting them doesn't prevent their eventual death. It just means that the death happens "off camera," and quite possibly much sooner.
I absolutely won't be friends with one. They have a dangerous mentality of escalating non-violent situations into violent ones, and they'll never admit when they are wrong. Not the type of people I would ever want to associate with.
