News release from BBC: A man threw a puppy at a group of Hell's Angels, and escaped on a bulldozer.

Discuss.

This is from June, so I apologize if someone has already posted this.

I... I don't even... what?

"What motivated him to throw a puppy at the Hell's Angels is currently unclear," a police spokesman said.


^That is my favorite part

Puppy Power!

Glad to see the puppy is okay. But did this guy have a death wish or something.

That article reminds me of this scene from The Tick.

To me, the best part was that he drove the bulldozer until traffic was backed up for 5 km before he was caught.

Throwing puppies is just. plain. wrong.

I just like the part where it mentions how slowly he got away in the bulldozer. Reminded me of that scene from Simpsons where Bart and Homer jump into a parade float to escape an angry mob, and the mob just watches as they slowly drive past.

Skinner: "D***, they're very slowly getting away!"

Moe: "They're heading for the old mill!"

Homer (over his shoulder): "No we're not!"

Moe: "Well...let's go to the old mill anyway! Get some cider!"

.... Oh wow... xD

They say he had stopped taking depression medication, so... Still, that's really weird xD;

*Can now picture a poor little cute puppy being thrown* T_T

He's probably bipolar, then.

Wow. That sounds like the most thrilling depressed person ever.

It actually sounds like he overdosed on his meds to do something this... what's the word I'm looking for? Unique?

XDDD ok. this is one of the craziest stories I've heard in a while. You could never make a story like that up. LOL And I still don't get what would motivate ANYONE to throw a puppy. ;_;

At times, I've told my dog in training (who is in that wonderful teenage stage where, after a streak of brilliance and making great strides, will suddenly act like he's forgotten things he knows full well --i.e. "I know you know what down means!") the following: "If you weren't so cute, I'd flush you down the toilet!" I've also told him that I would make him into a throw rug or make tacos/tamales.

All completely empty threats. He just looks at me with his big, goofy grin and wags his tail. You just can't stay mad at that face. It's impossible. You just sigh and say, "Silly doodle."

But if he pees on the floor at this stage, you definitely throw him at a biker gang.

Where do thoughts come from, Warren?

Eh, maybe he threw the puppy because it would take too long to take off his shoe.

Actually, this touches on a facet of the story that I'm surprised no one here has yet addressed. Clearly the man brought the puppy with him. Taking off your shoe and throwing it is usually a spontaneous action. To actually go to the trouble of bringing a puppy along with the express purpose of tossing it at someone means that it was premeditated.

And yet he obviously didn't think as far as a getaway, because the best he could find to escape in was a bulldozer. But how did he get there in the first place? Wouldn't he have had to drive? And how hard could it be for a bunch of guys on motorcycles to overtake one weirdo in a slow-moving construction vehicle?

Ok... On topic: Holy crap, this is insane. I didn't even know there WERE Hell's Angels in Germany, but besides that, who... who does that? Who throws a shoe... I mean puppy?

Slightly off topic:
My friend has a dog named Lola. I adapt the lyrics of Copacabana to make fun of her (she's a Chihuahua)

"Her name was Lola, she was delicious..."

Mmm... Hot dog.

LOL.

Okay, this brings me to my next question: What breed of puppy was it? Because if it was a goldren retriever puppy, that's kind of unforgivable, but if it was, like, a Jack Russell Terrier or something, please, throw more.
