Story of homophobia fueled stupidity with a happy ending
January 31, 2013 at 6:08 pm
This story was all over facebook yesterday:

http://www.examiner.com/article/tennesse...-he-is-gay

A dog owner in Tennessee noticed his male dog humping another male dog and responds in a horrible way: brings the dog to a crowded shelter that tells him they're putting him to sleep the next day. Well, he would get put to sleep unless he was adopted, but it's damn hard to adopt out adult dogs.

Besides the outrage over animal rights, animal cruelty and homophobia, the owner is just plain stupid. Does he have any decent understanding of what humping is for dogs? Sex isn't the same for humans as it is for other species, y'know.

Well, anyway, today, things took a turn for the better. The story got so much coverage on facebook that someone went down there and adopted the poor dog.

Congrats to Stephanie Fryns, new owner of the dog.

Heard about it, glad it ended happily. It's kinda hilarious that the previous owner was so sexually insecure that he put his doggy on death row for having sex ROFLOL
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Good grief...

It makes me afraid to live in this world sometimes when there's people like this on the loose.
