Well, my dog kept glancing at the kid and back at me, he was ready to bolt but I didn't catch it in time, and he took off after the kid. The kid panicked and raced right into the street, both of them almost got hit by cars. And just then the police were turning the corner and pretty much caught the whole thing. The kid was bawling his eyes out. I got a ticket and a stern lecture from a dumb fat bitch cop.
Whats my point? Well. It's a given that I fucked up my letting my dog off his leash like that. But, I really wish there would be some amount of responsibility on the kid, or his parents for being so ignorant.
Oh come ON! Fucking hell I can't believe that you could actually tell that story with the thought that you're in the right, or the kid is in the wrong at all.
It's NOT the kid who is ignorant in this situation, it's you. To try to say that the kid should know better than to LOOK at an animal, fucking hell. You are fully in the wrong here as YOU are the one that has chosen to own a potentially lethal animal (I'm not singling out pit bulls here, all dogs are that way, and I've had a dog, I have nothing against them), so YOU have the responsibility to keep it safe and to keep others safe from it.
If that kid's family had a dog, then YES it's the parent's job to teach it how to behave around them, how not to aggravate them etc. But to expect all kids, even those that do not have dogs, to NOT look at a scary looking dog, and to NOT run when that same scary dog bolts at them? Please. You are so very far in the wrong there. Even if a little kid IS told they shouldn't run when a scary dog is running at them, pure fear will override that in an instant.
AND then you say you were lectured by 'some dumb fat bitch cop', which aside from lacking any punctuation, also just speaks to YOU being fairly told off and deciding that she was in the wrong because YOU can't admit you almost got a kid killed.
F cking hell. Have a long look at yourself and your ability to be able to blame others for your fuck ups.


I didn't say the kid looked at my dog. I said he STARED at my dog for well over 30 seconds without moving just staring right at him.

Do people normally stare intensely at things that cause them pure fear? I don't. I keep walking and mind my business.

The kid is ignorant as to how to deal with dogs. Whether or not he or his family owns dogs is irrelevant. I learned, from reading, when I was a young kid, how to escape an alligator(Run in a zig zag). I live in Canada so I'm unlikely to be meet an alligator. Kids should at least be educated in how to deal with dogs.

Furthermore, I already said that I screwed up by letting the dog off the leash. My point in telling the story is people should be educated in how to deal with dogs. At least as educated in how to deal with dogs as Canadians are with how to deal with alligators.

And I called the cop a fat, dumb, bitch because she threatened to shoot my dog, when I already had his leash in my hands, because he was excited and wanted to greet her. Also, she was at least 220 lbs and like 5'6 so yeah she was a dumb, fat bitch.

I should have ran away with my dog lol she would never have caught me. Literally 220 lb. female cop. Not 220 lbs of muscle either. She had no business being a cop.

Jeez, it's like watching a skiddish sheep zig-zagging its way out of the barn.

I have to do something like this when I use the washroom in the morning, with less zig-zag.

good lord that thing had to go
the zig-zag was funny

I may be necroposting here and I may not be as qualified as MINK is, but I still wanted to recommend Zig Zag by Rustie to those that hadn't heard it. It was among my favorite electronic tracks for the past year.

3 Killer Whales, 1 Penguin, and a boat full of Humans...

You know anyone of those People would be terrified to be in that water with 3 hungry Whales.

Those Whales i'm sure have seen our gone through some horrible encounter with Humans that they know better than to mess with them. The Penguin too for that matter...

Meanwhile that Penguin zig zagged its way through each of those Killer Whales like a champ, making fools out of them by jumping into the boat where he stands on the edge cool as sh*t just starring at the people... Now that's Swag

@Farhad2000
Yeah the warhead has to travel 25m past the launcher before the warhead is armed but with a dud like that run like hell just in case. Thats just standard on any range. Then call in the Sappers/Pioneers and stay away from it. M203's have to spin a number of times before there armed like darksun said but wire guided rockets don't spin and there is a range finder built into the launcher. I never got to fire HEAT-WRAP rounds just TPT (pratice) rounds. There are 2 or 3 french units gearing up for the next tour in Afganistain.
@darksun
its a decision between range and punch.
ERYX 600m range can defeat reactive armor (the americans have so far refused to declassify there test M1 abrams vs ERYX)
MILAN 1/2 2200m range cant defeat reactive armor (Milan 3 can though but loses 200m)

But yeah the Javelin i have fired HEAT rounds and that thing is fun watching it slam into the target from above. They like to zig zag but before hitting they usualy fly up then just slam right into the target its fun to watch.
