Dogs getting beat with a bat

I had a neighbor shoot a beagle of mine , right between the eyes. My wife heard the shot and petey never came home , when I got home I got my chow and off we went , he lead me to the dog , he was laying in there front yard , I flipped. Out , dragged the dog up on the poarch , and started beating there door down , I also had my 40 tucked in my pants out of sight , there was three men there and they all hid behind the locked door , saying they didn't know nothing , he was just running bunnys , no harm , I ask them to come outside very rude like , screaming , they were all bigger than me but I guess they has been barred , I went home and got madder and went back , trying to get them all out for the super a$$ whippen , they wanted no part of that , so I called the law , if the dog would have made it back to my property it was animal cruelty , but since he didn't there was nothing they could do , I also made a few threats and he moved his whole herd of cows to his back yard for at least 6 months , his dog came in my yard about a year after thAt , it was a small dog , man did I want revenge but the animal had nothing to do with there stupidity, so I picked it up and back to his house I went , I knocked on the door and when he opened it you should have seen the look on his face when I handed his dog back to him in one piece and said he was in my yard ,it took a long while for me to get over this , I still would of liked them to step out
so I could of tried to beat them all three red neck style , I'm sorry about your dogs , good man for keeping your head , boy you can have some sick thoughts when something like this happens
