(15,711 posts)3. How about some love for that poor goat?
n the excerpt, Noem writes she attempted to tame the dog, who she said behaved like a trained assassin, with an electronic collar, but ultimately made the decision to put her down by shooting her in a gravel pit after an incident in which the dog attacked a local familys chickens and bit her.
It was not a pleasant job, Noem writes, according to The Guardian, but it had to be done. And after it was over, I realized another unpleasant job needed to be done.
Next, the Guardian quotes excerpts of the book in which Noem shoots a goat in the same manner. Noem describes the goat as nasty and mean and having a disgusting, musky, rancid smell. The goat made a habit of chasing and knocking down her kids, Noem adds.
Aiming to distinguish herself from typical politicians, Noem writes, I guess if I were a better politician I wouldnt tell the story here.

If she were a better person she wouldn't have to write about her horrible person.
