Meh, you don't get any points for only complaining about vigilante mobs after your old mob comes for you.

wasn't it Izzy Galvez, a GNAA associate, whose dog was supposedly shot

Are you sure he's not conflating that with Brianna Wu? (I kind of hope he is, just for the shudder his TERFfy little heart will make when he finds out what m'lady he's been white knighting.)

I thought Wu was the one who left her dog out in the cold to die because muh gamergate?

Yeah, but it's all I can think of. I mean, a lot of things were blamed on GG but only one dead dog was as far as I remember. I think he's just linked "Gamergate + dead dog = swatting" in his head and not thought of it further. Unless someone knows an incident that closer fits his muddled recall.
