Welcome to 21st-century Armenia ladies and gentlemen. The other day one user here was alleging that it’s because of ties with Russia and Iran that people from Western countries don’t visit Armenia much. But nah. It’s because the country is in a state where a pack of street dogs mauls someone to death in broad daylight in a city right next to the capital. And no: it’s not because “evil outsiders make us live in such conditions :(” but because not a single fuck is given by the authorities to the barest of necessity of citizens in Armenia – physical security from roaming animals.

Despatch the stray dogs and be done with it. They’re not rodents – they can’t reproduce at the rate of rabbits.

Or… agonise about the fraught moral decision of euthanising man’s best friend, and still continue to eat meat and dairy. Hey, eating eggs and sending male chicks into an industrial macerator is fine, after all, but euthanising a much larger, barking, biting mammal with the ability to kill humans is an atrocity!
