A man who tangled with a police dog in Prince Albert following a wild car chase is facing a number of charges, including animal cruelty. Police say he was nude at the time of the encounter.
I'm surprised the dog didn't bite his testicles off or at least bite him in the ass, but then again a defense attorney may have argued that the dog is racist and used undue force and his client would be due for a huge settlement.
And yet there are people out there who want to decriminalize Cocaine and Psychedelics. If they do that the SPCA animal cruelty investigators could become extremely busy.

Police say Prince Albert man was under the influence of drugs
Causing unnecessary suffering

I read drugs, not specifically cocaine or psychedelics. Wonder how many dogs get mistreated on legal booze? What is it about coke or acid that you think specifically makes people prone to mistreating animals?
If you had read the actual story about legalizing, without your blinkers on, you would have read:
"The well-intentioned effort to criminalize the production, sale and use of these substances has not achieved the expected impact in terms of suppressing their availability and use," Wood told CBC News. "The traditional argument that we flip to another scenario where they're advertised and promoted and sold to children is a little bit disingenuous … there's probably a middle ground around the taxation and regulation of these substances that really implies the ability to improve public health and safety through their regulation and control."
But let's go with coke makes you bite animals. So your thinking is that there's tons of people out there just dying to try cocaine, but won't because it's illegal? Making it available in some regulated form will just open the floodgates to an orgy of coke taking by lawabiding citizens? Are you one of these? Anybody you know one of these?
Presumably the dog was biting him. Is it still animal cruelty to bite a dog that's biting you? Guess if he was all boozed up he would have just meekly lay still - we know how booze calms people down, makes em all mellow, unlike those evil drugs.

Here's what. Next time I'll put a warning on my post:
Warning
This statement contains words that some readers may find disturbing". • "Reader discretion advised." • "Intended for mature audiences only." • "Contains sentences of a sarcastic nature." • "This paragraph may contain strong language." • "This paragraph may contain somewhat warped humour"
Hopefully that along with the emoticon laying on it's back laughing will be enough to tip you off that it's intended to be funny or sarcastic because if it isn't I honestly don't think there's any point trying to explain it because everything with you becomes a battle about your perception of the benefits of legalizing, decriminalizing, using and giving away drugs for free.
Well, it's an nice twist, but you were expounding your position just as much. If it was sarcasm you were employing, it would actually mean you didn't see any problem with legalizing those substances.
"andyt" said Well, it's an nice twist, but you were expounding your position just as much. If it was sarcasm you were employing, it would actually mean you didn't see any problem with legalizing those substances.
I doubt it especially considering the definition of sarcasm is
harsh or bitter derision or irony.
So I don't know where you got the impression that I see no problem with legalizing cocaine and psychedelic drugs since all I found was that this story was ironic especially considering that it was some clown stoned on god know what who decided to bite a police dog which, is the opposite of the usual police dog bites man story.

sar·casm noun \?sär-?ka-z?m\ : the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really want to say especially in order to insult someone, to show irritation, or to be funny
See what I'm saying?
As for you finding the story ironic, that goes back to the questions I posed how legalizing cocaine and psychedelic drugs will somehow in your mind lead to a great uptick in dog biting incidents.
See, you say you're just making a joke, cause you added a little , but really you're making your argument that legalizing and regulating these drugs is a bad idea, just with what you perceive as humor, rather than actually backing it up. It's the same stale technique as Martin's endless "isn't diversity great" every time a brown or Muslim person does something, but stone silence if it's a white guy.

It`s called irony but I see that the man bites dog while on drugs schtick is lost on you and you can spin it anyway you want but the fact remains you`re just using my post to further your pro drug agenda.
So before you start quoting things from dictionaries should read the "whole" definition and not just what you need to validate your argument. From the same dictionary you got your definition from . http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sarcasm
Full Definition of SARCASM 1: a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to cut or give pain 2 a : a mode of satirical wit depending for its effect on bitter, caustic, and often ironic language that is usually directed against an individual
Here`s a suggestion that I know you won`t take but, I`ll give it a shot anyway.
Before you start accusing others of being one trick ponies perhaps you should go back and revisit some of your pro legalization, pro gov`t provided drugs for addicts, pro decriminalization, Colorado is gonna be rich posts because they have the strange propensity of being the same rhetoric over and over and over again, only occasionally to be broken by a "Harper is evil" snide remark.
And yet there are people out there who want to decriminalize Cocaine and Psychedelics. If they do that the SPCA animal cruelty investigators could become extremely busy.
