Tossing a bundle of ignited matches around some parts of the country could end you up in a world of trouble. Try explaining why you were throwing fire brands at a dog to the hundred people whose houses you've burned down.

I didn't say you had to psychoanalyze the dog, just understand how to use millennia of conditioning and breeding on them. They are cowards. They were cowards before they decided that we were a meal ticket. They understand that we are a meal ticket and will do whatever is necessary to keep riding the gravy train. Use it against them.
