And one should never push someone unstable to the breaking point...

Not cool, no one should ever shoot an animal with airsoft. http://www.airsplat.com/airsoft-safety.htm

Think about it,would you let your dog bark if you knew it was bothering someone or play rap music a 2a.m. in your driveway,or play the drums under a terminally ill persons window in the middle of the night,wouldn't you stop if they asked you?Same difference with the dog,he sacrificed his dog to get a reaction putting him on the same level as the fireman with his hot temper...simple logic you can't get by it.You are a terrible dog owner if you let them bark incessantly,a lot times these boxers are vicious .I personally witnessed an attack on a 5 year old girl.

And the dog owner too,a couple of a-holes in my book

Hold your tongue between your thumb and index fingers and speak the defendants name. That's exactly what he is.

It's both the dog owners fault and the firemans not the dogs fault.Some people are confrontational whether it be barking dogs,loud music or whatever they try to get a reaction from people when they know they are bothering them,some folks have uncontrolable hot tempers,you get the two together and it's a recipe for disaster.

sounds like the dog pretty much never stopped barking

Aleman your a dumbass and anyone else that dont have their facts straight before forming an opinion. The dog barked while neighborhood kids walked to school in the morning and while neighborhood kids walked home from school in the afternoon, also the dog barked while their children played with her.Viscious huh.Randy Shipman is a dumbass liar and coward. Hes getting what he deserves.What about the dog that lived next door to Randy. This dog, which happened to be a pitbull stayed chained up and barked all day and all night. Sissy was loved very much by the Reeves family.Sissy was a full blood boxer MRS.INBRED I MEAN MRS.INTOWN and Sissy was very well takn care of.Get your facts straight cause some of you dont know anything but what your assuming happened.BOTTOM LINE, RANDY SHIPMAN IS AN IDIOT

This is what happens to you when you lose your temper with passive-aggressive people ...you can't win and you always end up doing the wrong thing.
