Maybe one of the most literal instances of “Man Bites Dog” I’ve ever seen. There’s even a dog involved!
She should have just obeyed his orders.
Training takes time. Perhaps he needed to make sure she could see the liver treat to entice her to perform the command
It’s the crossover mashup of John Wick and Cats vs Dogs that no-one asked for.
John Wick gets murdered, and his dog wants revenge
its a DOG shoot people world out there.
I burst out laughing at the article headline
This must be article of the year
“Police responding to reports of a shotgun blast at a convenience store sounds like the opening of countless American crime movies[…]” No, it sounds like the beginning of a normal day in America.
Believe it or not, a convenience store having a dog fire a shotgun is still a very abnormal thing in america
The sentence I quoted and commented on didn’t have anything do to with dogs.
Yet at the same time, not at all surprising.
How do they even know when to begin their day if the morning shotgun doesn’t go off?
I see, when it’s a dog we use the active voice but when it’s a white nationalist we use the passive voice.
No but on a more serious note, why are people who are this unsafe with guns allowed to be gun owners in the US? It’s okay though because next time a good guy with a gun will be there to kill the dog before it kills someone.
there is no test for ‘safe gun owner’. most states don’t even require a license if it’s a shotgun. all you need is an state ID and a background check.
only five states require a gun license. 45 do not.
Driving around locked, loaded and the safety off. The gun owner is a fucking idiot and should not be allowed to own firearms.
That’s our wonderful american culture for you.

this is such a weird way to use an education in latin
I just figured he was a big fan of the Spin Doctors.
I thought of it as a Julius Caesar reference, but I’ll take what I can get, lol.
I don’t think she will make this mistake again.
Wasn’t the woman’s truck, dog, or gun. But that’ll teach her to live in Nebraska.
Getting shotgun blasted by a dog isn’t even in the top ten worst things about living in Nebraska.

Good thing: potato salad.
This is the most American thing ever to happen.
How did doggo pull trigger without opposable thumbs?
with the dew claw, or the nails?
Is this a 3o rock bit?
More like “Unqualified gun owners criminal neglect kills woman at convenience store.”
Nobody died. There was 1 minor injury
there are no qualifications for gun ownership in Nebraska.
only a 5 states require a license for a shot gun, in the form of a Firearms ID. They require no coursework on training.
Typically you only need to take a gun safety class if you are buying a handgun, and even then only a dozen states require that.
So everyone in Nebraska is an unqualified gun owner.
legally. they are qualified.
according to your feelings? i guess not.
That is a big part of the American Problem.
do you live in Nebraska? you are welcome to move there and participate in their politics and change the laws.
but I don’t think you’re interested in doing that.
Found the dogs defense attorney
She wasn’t killed but your point stands: The headline, while obviously being clickbaity and maybe even trying to be funny hides the underlying problem:
Somehow, the dog had triggered the shotgun – which had a live round chambered – to fire, damaging the vehicle and striking a female passerby.
[…]
It is illegal in Nebraska to drive with a loaded shotgun in your vehicle.
That’s what the dog wants you to think 🐕
Why? was she trying to eat the dog?
A good dog with a gun?
So that scene in Plague Dogs wasn’t comically impossible after all…
