Why is it that people insist on kicking the dog when the dog
has nothing to do with the problem?
It’s a trait I might expect from children, but most children would be appalled
if someone kicked their beloved pet.
So I suppose this is a learned behavior, something someone
taught the dog kickers. One might think
that intelligent people would never be dog kickers. Their reason would point out how ineffectual it was for dealing
with the real problem.
That’s not the case though.
Our country is filled with people who prefer to pretend dogs create the
problems we face and they are willing to enact laws that keep dogs within
kicking distance at all times. It is so
much easier than dealing with unemployment, or poor medical care, or unbalanced
budgets and people understand dog kicking!
They are comfortable with it!
They have been brought up to believe if we do these things to dogs that
have been done unto us all will be right with the world!
Blame it on the dogs!
If nothing else it is a wonderful cover for those seeking
control. Everyone can stand behind
things that don’t have anything at all to do with government and the state of
our economy. The question is only: How long can we pretend this is the problem
before people catch on?
