My dog’s a fucking idiot. I wouldn’t trust him to carry a nerf bullet.

I would trust your dog over 100% of the idiots that actually do carry…

Neat, but sounds like bad legal advice. Last time I looked it up, it said something like “possessing a firearm on or about one’s person”… so it doesn’t matter if it’s attached to your dog or pulled behind your on a skateboard or held in mid-air using some kind of hovering drone… if it is near you and under your control, you have it.
IMO, the interesting case would be if the weapon is stored in your home (where nobody questions it may be), and you can summon it.

Also worth noting it’s extremely dangerous to do with an untrained dog. All it takes is and enthusiastic “come here!” or a treat or something and now another person has access to your firearm while you don’t have anything.

I do find the mental image of a panicked boogaloo begging his holster dog to recall as it chases squirrels. One less bigot, plus you go home with a free dog and gun!

… This is so stupid it hurts my brain.
I actually tried to find laws relating to… stowing? carrying? a gun, in a holster, on a harness, on a dog.
I could not find any.
I very much hope this is completely legally dubious, but given the patchwork insanity of US gun laws… there might concievably be some kind of very specific situation where this would ‘work’ in some kind of legal sense…

Still falls under your control in that instance, unless you’ve got someone else summoning it for you (we don’t need to talk about how, just assume it’s a drone and not magic) at which point we’re talking about a conspiracy.

I was going to make a joke about that meaning having a set of car keys on your person would be driving, but then I remembered that people HAVE been arrested for drunk driving a parked car, simply because they were sitting in that car with the keys on their person. Our legal system…

Maybe using a drone? Idk

He’s going out to get revenge on the guy who shot his paw.

But there are laws about shipping your firearm and safe storing your firearm. It is also actually still illegal to leave a firearm alone outside without a concealed carry permit in most states.

It isn’t alone it’s with a dog
FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 21 hours ago
Either the dog is a person and requires a permit or the dog is not a person and the gun is alone. You could even try to argue if a dog is a safe storage, to which I think it lacks several key features.

You may not be fun at parties, but that’s what they tell me, too, so we can hang out in the corner or something.

john wick if john wick dies in the intro
stray@pawb.social 8 hours ago
Honestly, the John Wick films are a bit tired at this point. I think he should die at the end of one so that his dog can go on a 2- to 3-film killing spree during which he raises a troubled youth with a heart of gold, abandoned by the system, and then the dog gets killed at the end of those movies so the kid can go on a killing spree and maybe rescue an abused circus animal or something.

But will you use the those guns to topple your pedophile government?
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
No. Of coarse not. Everybody says they hate pedophiles, but nobody does anything about it…well, except that one guy in July 2024 in PA. That guy was almost a hero. A hero like Luigi. To quote Maxwell Smart: “Missed it by THAT much”

Reminds me of Dogmeat in Fallout 3. I was really worried about the buddy when the wiki said Dogmeat can die. Bullshit. Every time I hit VATS after that, I didn’t see a dog anywhere, just a dog shaped cruise missile repeatedly flying at the enemies, killing stuff dead. In Fallout: New Vegas, they upgraded the doggo into a real dog shaped cruise missile.

before broken steel came out, dogmeat died quite a bit. after broken steel, the level increase messed with his health pool and “accidentally” gave dogmeat like 30,000 health
