>>594658Slight difference here friend, I am allowed to shoot dogs that are chasing my cattle, you are not allowed to shot children who are trampling your garden.
The dog stands to cause thousands of dollars of damage to my cattle (I paid 8 grand for the cheapest heifer out there) and once again, just in case you don't have any idea how the law works, was on my land causing problems.
In Indiana, you have to "reasonably believe that that force is necessary to prevent serious bodily injury to the person or a third person or the commission of a forcible felony" to justify shooting a person.
Our dog laws are fairly simple
>Killing roaming dog. If any dog shall be found roaming over the country unattended by his master or owner or his owner's agent, it shall be lawful to kill such dog.and that has been solidified by Puckett vs Miller.
and
>Dog that has killed, chased, or worried stock or fowls Killing Penalty for keeping. Any dog that is known to have killed, maimed, chased or worried any sheep, cattle, horses, swine or other livestock or fowls, unless accompanied by his master or some other person, may be killed by any person, and any person who shall own, keep or harbor any dog, after he knows that such dog has killed or maimed, chased or worried any sheep, cattle, horses, swine, other livestock or fowls shall be fined in any sum not less than ten ($10.00) nor more than fifty dollars ($50.00).So once more, to make sure you understand through all the name calling and shit flinging you are doing.
I have no reason not to kill your dog
I can kill your dog whenever I feel fit if you leave it to roam unattended
You are not entitled to allow your dog to roam onto other peoples property
If you dog chases/kills/worries my livestock, even if you are present, I may shoot it
Any and all harm to your dog can be prevented by you chaining him up when you are unable to attend to him directly
Yet, you feel entitiled to allow your dog to run free
