Bam Margera Apologizes for “Gun To Puppy” Photo Posted on Twitter

Bam Margera is apologizing today.  After his puppy pooped in his bed, Bam took to twitter and posted a pic that outraged puppy lovers everywhere.  To his 800,000 plus followers, he held the yorkie-mix (some say it’s a pitbull – not sure if it really matters) up and put a gun to his head.  He then tweeted,

“Penny pooped in my bed. Not too fond of that. If it happens again, Penny goes Bye Byes!”

 

Bam Threatening Pooping Puppy With Gun

Of course, people from The Society For Prevention of Cruelty to Animals had something to say.  Rich Britton a spokesperson for the group said that,

It’s not funny.  He has missed the mark on this one.

In fact it was just bad timing and perhaps he did miss the mark.  As Bam explained, he was just having a little fun with a fake gun, but his pic was posted during a time of an uprising of animal cruelty stories in the Philadelphia area where he lives.

What I didn’t know is that there was an article in the Philadelphia Inquirer about people in the area burning dogs in cages.

That is terrible, and I didn’t know that. If I did, I never would have posted it. I am an animal lover and on Jackass, therefore I like jokes and shock value. It was bad timing on me. And I should have said the gun was fake.”

Sorry if I offended anybody. I am a big animal lover.

I just like to joke around. I would never, ever in a million years ever hurt a dog or a cat or any animal.

He then followed up by posting a picture of his mom holding the gun to his head with the caption stating:

“April said @Bam_Margera does one more dumb thing he goes bye bye”

 

Bam will be in L.A. shooting for a new TBS reality-contest show.  This might explain why he was so quick with the apologies.
