A Sunday Morning Walk In Puna

[DTisme]

Anecdote: A few years back, a cop had to come to our home in HPP bc I called about finding a bunch of mail that had been stolen from the mailboxes on Maku'u. Our neighbor's little Boston terrier came prancing up our driveway. The cop stops talking to me and says, "That your dog?" I say no, it's our neighbors. He's coming over for a treat. He makes the rounds." The cop says, "Which neighbor? I should cite him. People let their dogs out, off leash, then it's us they call when someone gets hurt." I say, "Oh don't cite him. I'll tell him you were here and said so. This little guy's a lover, not a fighter, but I get it, no problem." Cop let it go as long as he thought it was going to be taken care of. I told the neighbor about it. He never took action. Within a year, that dog was killed by pigs.
