Open Letter to Boston: Please, Please, Please, Put this Dog to Sleep

Dear Madams or Sirs,

A moral human being is obligated to never let an animal needlessly suffer.

It's difficult sometimes, making that tough decision to take a semi-sentient life.

But it is the humane thing to do.

Today, you must put out of misery a pathetic dog that, if allowed to live, would only suffer in pain and then die soon enough, anyway.

Do your duty.

And remember: Better to be safe than sorry.

Even if the body has stopped twitching, put an extra bullet into the head.
