#make him infamous

A thief!!

See this dog? My family and i saw him locked in a parked car in a Fry's parking lot. The window was barely rolled down. It was 86 degrees out. 

My dad called animal control and gave them his license plate number and all of that, although it took a while since he was on hold. They said they would send animal control and we waited for the guy to come out.

He comes out carrying a large soda and goes to get into his car. Here's what went down...

My dad: Did you get a drink for your dog too?

Guy: *Looks confused* Why would I?

My dad: Because you left him out in the heat.

Guy: *Gets angry* Do you know how long I was in there?

My dad: Yeah. we've been waiting 20 minutes since you got here. I hope the call to animal control teaches you something.

Guy: Good to know. *Gets in the car and goes to speed off, but stops after almost hitting another car and has to wait*

My dad: *Stares at the guy*

Guy: *looks over* How do you know the drink wasn't for my dog?

My dad: You were going to give your dog Sprite?

Guy: Yeah.

My dad: You are a piece of **** owner.

Guy: Yeah? Well you're a fat piece of ****. *Says something vulgar I would rather leave out*

My dad: Criminal.

The guy drove away quickly after that. I wish I would have gotten his picture to put up. However, I need your guys' help. Please.

Make sure to never leave your dog in the car. Ever. Even if you're only running in for a few minutes. That's all it takes to kill him. If you see an animal in a car without a good amount of window rolled down or air conditioning, call someone. don't stand by.

with the voices of many individuals, comes an interesting predicament...

initially this post was going to be all about how much i'm incredibly saddened by the fact that people on tumblr (or the internet in general, what have you) are actually bashing others for reblogging Kony2012 information just to look like they have a heart.

i will slightly address this in saying this:

IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO FIGHT FOR SOMETHING NOW, WHEN EXACTLY IS THE TIME? will you wait for Rawanda to happen again? the holocaust? the lives lost in revolutions like in Libiya or in Syria? WHERE IS THERE A LINE? when will enough be enough for this generation?

the important thing out of this conversation, both positive and negative, is that people are TALKING about Kony2012. people are discussing the actions of their peers and joining the cause.

however persistence in the effort is key, and that's where much of the battle could be lost.

the naysayers may think that by degrading this movement and its efforts they are deteriorating the voices that speak behind it. honey, i think you didn't realize this but your voice is drawing attention to Kony. this is what the movement wanted to accomplish. thanks for talking about it, though! it's spreading the word that 2011's Occupy Movement was just the beginning of a revolution of want to make change for the people by the people. 2012 is the year to make Kony infamous, and by wagging that negative tongue around you're helping us do it :P
