There are stray dogs roaming because people take pity and feed them as animal shelters there are few and have low budget and capacity. |
The man should have been kicked a few times too. |
Oh, please. He kicked him because the dog was alerting the authorities to the illegal items he had in his suitcase. Spare us all your sob story. DP |
People like you are so disgusting. Seek help. |
A combination of all of the above, I think. |
He’s Muslim right? I have a little fluffy dog who’s very sweet. He likes to smell peoples legs. His nose touched my Muslim neighbors leg and the man kicked him and went off about it. He said dog licking is haram. He seriously screamed at me. I’ve been careful since then to keep my dog away from obvious Muslim people. I didn’t know. My dog is actually well trained, knows commands and never jumps on people.
We often rode the elevator in my condo so that’s why he was in close proximity to others. |
Okay fascist. |
People like you put Hitler in the White House twice. Seek suicide. |
No, people like you did. Animal lovers are generally democrats. Trump hates dogs. Kristi Noem shot her own puppy in the head. Those are your kind of people. |
Given this and the levels of domestic violence among police officers, it would seem we need substantially better screening to keep the sadists out of police forces. |
Kicking your dog was not OK but neither is letting your dog lick or sniff people in the elevator. That’s disgusting. |
I think it’s important to separate religion from culture and poverty. Islam teaches kindness to animals—the Prophet even showed compassion to dogs. Practices can vary widely between countries; Islam in America often looks different from Islam elsewhere. What you saw likely reflects local conditions, not the religion itself. Animal abuse sadly exists everywhere, and generalizing overlooks the many people in those places who care about animals. |
