Summary

Think about your dog, cat, or any beloved pet. If you don’t have one - imagine one. Would you ever chain your dog up to your chair all day long while you and your buddies watched TV? Would you make the dog beg you on all fours to use the restroom? And if the dog did something you didn’t like - would you ever dream of chaining up outside to a tree in the cold winter night? You wouldn’t dream of doing that to a dog. It would make you a horrible person. But that’s how David liked to treat his girlfriends. What does that make him? A murderer.

0:32.3	Welcome to this week's episode of Rotten Mango. I'm your host Stephanie Sue, and I'm
0:36.6	sure that a lot of you guys have dogs. I mean, we have dogs, but imagine if you don't,
0:41.0	that you have a pet. And every day, while you and your buddies watch TV, you chain your
0:45.9	dog up by your chair. And if the dog so much has made a noise, you would beat the dog.
0:52.0	You made the dog beg you to use the restroom, and only then would you escort the dog and
0:57.4	watch it while it does its business. If the dog did something that you didn't like,

1:11.1	Absolutely no one. And at the very least, if you did this, first of all, you should be
