Who knows where and how to get seeds of these plants? What are you going to do with a plant that produces strychnine? And: curare, is a corruption of two Tupi Indian terms meaning "bird" and "to kill." Chondrodendron tomentosum or the curare vine is one of the main plants used by the Indians in the Amazon to prepare these arrow poisons. What do you have in mind? :) John |

I didn't get as far as using poison, although it was next on my list. What worked ended up being great fun. I had a picture of a friend's boat docked in Montauk, Long Island. In those days, some fishermen thought it was cool to hang sharks' heads on the dock pilings after they were done hacking up the animals for whatever purpose. I showed that picture to two uncooperative dog owners and asked if they'd like to see that happen to their beasts. The cops came to my door later that day. We talked, and I assume they also chatted with the dog owners because I never saw those dogs leave their property again. Priceless. |

"Doug Kanter" graced the world with this thought: I didn't get as far as using poison, although it was next on my list. good idea, then bent over an excercise bench in the weight room with a line of guys from the Aryan Brotherhood behind you would be next? What kind of idiot kills someone's dog because it comes in his yard or pees on his lawn? If it's worrying sheep or threatening your kids, get a ****ing gun, at least it's legal then. |

What kind of idiot kills someone's dog because it comes in his yard or pees on his lawn? If it's worrying sheep or threatening your kids, get a ****ing gun, at least it's legal then. Can't use a gun in my residential neighborhood. However, you're on the right track. In NY, most animals can be killed for destroying food crops. If the animal is one which is governed by hunting laws, you need to get a special permit. Dogs are not governed by hunting regs. The only limiting factor is the sensible consideration of firearms laws (and common sense) in the area. But, back to the subject: Tell me your solution to the following problem. A dog craps repeatedly in your vegetable & flower beds. A half dozen polite conversations with the owner produce no results. It's a cagey animal, impossible to catch or even approach. The dog catcher is called a dozen times and says he must witness the dog being off its property before he can fine the owner, and finally remove the dog after 3 violations. The dog is off its property very early in the day or in the evening. The dog catcher works 8 to 5, unless he has to deal with a dangerous animal. Finally, zoning laws don't permit fences sufficient to protect the property from illegal dogs. What's YOUR solution? |

If the law allows you to kill an animal for destroying food crops, what is stopping you from "offing" the owner who is a human animal? ;- Actually I have that problem with neighbor cats, I scoop up the crap and throw it back into their yard at their front door.
