but if you go into a yard on the other side of your town looking for dogs you 
don't like and shoot them on someone else's property, it most deffinitely*IS* 
an unprovoked attack. 

we've been over this a thousand times, it seems. you are set on your worldview 
due to its convenient assuaging of your conscience when it comes to  
justifying your overly simplistic black-and-white fairytail "reality". fine. 
but is it too much to ask to have you stick to basic logic? see, you can't 
say the dog was in your yard when it wasn't your yard he was in.

was the dog rabid? yes.
was it within the rights of the USA to wade in and kill it? no.
was it in the best interests of the world at large to remove the dog? yes.
was it in the best interests of the world at large to remove it via a war? no.
were there other options? yes.
were any of them really tried? no.
is there unecessary suffering occuring as a result of all this? yes.
do you learn, or even care?
