I am at the emergency vet with my cat [View all]

A while ago, a dog was brought in on a stretcher followed by attendants and his parents. They all ran down the hall and I heard the man angrily yell something about "MY DOG!!!!" and I immediately thought bullets were going to start flying. When they came out to the reception desk a few minutes ago I looked to see if I could tell if he was packing or not.

I put this in General Discussion because I feel it is an issue and a current event. This is what we've come to: my first thought was the fear that was some angry person was going to shoot up the place. What a way to live. Happy 4th indeed.
