    Some with knowledge and look to the future bought bitcoins...some like me who reside in the dark and past did not ...Bud rather thought you may have bought Bitcoins when they were low priced....Bud could be wrong, won't be the first for him. Being wrong upsets Bud as you can see.:happy:

    Rather too late to go after Bitcoins....prices are above any possibility of making any money on their possible increase in value....

    Maybe, but I'm pretty sure people were saying the same when they went over $1000. Or, for that matter, when they went over $100.

    Given that fractional transactions are no harder than whole-number transactions, I don't see any reason Bitcoin couldn't hit $100k or higher.

    All of the Bitcoin enthusiasts are in the market already. The main streamers do not exist . . . Therefore, Bitcoin is pretty much at its zenith.

    We'll see. Or, to be more specific about you and myself, "we'll watch from the sidelines." :rolleyes:

    That's the thing about fractional transactions, though -- whether BTC goes from $10 to $100, or $10K to $100K, you'd still be able to put in $10 (plus transaction fees) and get out $100 (minus transaction fees).

    Disclaimer: I don't know what transaction fees actually run -- it's likely you'd need to buy more than $10 worth to make it worthwhile. And, of course, I don't know whether BTC is more likely to hit $100K or $1000 next. :rolleyes:

    Bud is a live and well behaved DOG, we got him from a Groomer who wanted to give him away. He had a life of living in a room at the rear of the Groomers shop and being moved outside when other dogs were in the shop, the Groomers daughter just had to have a puppy and when he became a dog she lost interest in him ...NOT much of a life, she called him BUBBA, I call him BUD.
    We got him after our BLACK Lab died from Lyme tick illness and BUD has been our BUD now for 6 years. I have never met a dog I did not love....when I became a member of a SWAT team the unnecessary shooting and killing of dogs stopped in our operations and remained stopped until I left the team... I am sad to say that it restarted sometime after I left...tragic and in most cases unnecessary.
    Bud thanks you for taking the time to ask about him.:shame:

    What justified the killing of dogs in Police operations?

    Entry teams are often confronted by dogs used by people who sell drugs and the dogs are used to slow the teams down so the people can dispose of the drugs and not be caught with drugs in their possession. Shooting the dogs is a quick way of removing the threat of the dogs and allowing quick entry of the Swat team.
    I was lucky and was always able to move the dogs out of the way and allowed the team members to make entry with little threat of being attacked by the dogs.
    I have only been bitten twice by dogs and both times it was my fault and not on a Swat operation. Once when a dog walked up to me in front of my home and I made over him, my dog (NOT BUD) charged the dog and it bit at my dog and got my left hand, he released me and ran back to my neighbors home,,,my fault I should have known it would happen. The second bite was when I was (ON DUTY) helping a dogs owner place his dog in his vehicle after it had been hit by a vehicle and the owner was taking it to a vet, my fault again, my hand slipped from it's muzzle and it bit me while in pain.
    To me the life of a dog is as important as the life of anything else and I have been lucky I have almost always been able to befriend dogs...and I love it.
    To answer your question as to justification for killing dogs by Police, I could not find any justification of killing the dogs if no effort was made to try and stop their attacks short of killing them. I know that there are some dogs trained to attack that I or no-one else could control but I had not been confronted by any during my time on the team.
    Thanks for your question...:)

    Very sad but I'm glad you have so much willingness to protect dogs (even when they bite you)

    None of the bites were serious..Only a small bone broken in the back my left hand. Dogs owner sent his insurance agent to my house and wanted to know if I intended to sue. I told him that the incident was my fault and I had no intentions of filing a law suit. The owner, my neighbor was my good friend as was the dog until the day I moved from the area and out of the State.:cat:
