You're an asshole, but this is true. And where all this nonsense began. If
Alan had not seen fit to announce that he had put Christy's beloved girls
outside and that they are not allowed in, there would have been no
discussion of Christy at all. She knew him, she loved him, but she would be
very upset by this. It is just not a loving thing to do. And it doesn't
matter whether or not ANY of you keep yours outside, Christy did not want
hers to be subjected to the dangers of the outdoors. That is the point.

And another good point: all this ASSHOLE needed to do was keep it to himself
and nobody would have gotten upset. He only posts to get people all worked
up. We have a name for that. Most of you idiots use it for people you don't
like, but its proper definition if for those who like to upset others.
