Hunt For Canine Killer Continues
There are few towns more dog-friendly than Portland: 40 percent of residents here own a pooch or two.

"I never met anyone who didn't like dogs," says one resident.

But, as CBS News Correspondent Jerry Bowen reports, somebody doesn't. The city's tranquil Laurelhurst Park, a favorite of owners and their pets, has become a killing ground.

"It's incredibly upsetting and demoralizing," says veterinarian Erika Zsomber-Murray.

She treated most of the 11 dogs that have died, and the eight that were sickened: all poisoned by sausages laced with weed killer left in the park.

I read another story saying the poison is Paraquat. Which the U.S. gave to Mexico to kill marijuana plants, year back. To my amazement something of the sort is being used today in Okalhoma.

Marijuana is not the problem, the GOP Christians are the sickness in our land!
