I can't help but wonder what laws were broken in the relationship between Jerrica Seals, 17, and boyfriend Javier Garcia, 23.

None
In Florida IF you are over 16 you can consent with someone under 24

watch all of the anti pit bull freepers heads explode after they try to find a way to spin this to make the pit bull look bad.

I'll give it a shot...

"She said the dog woke her up barking, jumped on the bed and bit her on the leg.

"Lassie, she ain't!

The best smoke and fire detector you can have in your house is a dog or cat.

reportedly the dog waited until the leg was well done before biting her, afterwards the pit bull proceeded to eat everyone in the surrounding county.

Golden agers welcome a pit bull with a heart of gold

Ruby was a big hit at a Bayport nursing home Tuesday morning, nuzzling and licking faces, doing a few tricks and climbing onto laps. The folks all said they'd never seen a calmer, gentler or more patient dog -- which might come as a surprise to some, because Ruby is a pit bull.

Owner Pat Bettendorf of Scandia said Ruby is a certified therapy dog rescued from abuse three years ago. She has a heart of gold, said Bettendorf, who's very supportive of her breed.

"Pit bulls have been maligned because they're misused by bad people," he said. "In the early 20th century they were considered the top family dog, good with kids."

Residents at the Croixdale home in Bayport enjoy Ruby's visits, said activities director Mary Jo Ducklow. "Petting a dog has a real calming effect," she said. "The residents smile and relax with Ruby in the room."

ONE heroic act out of how many evil deeds pit bulls have done?

I still say pit pulls should be bred out of existence, or shipped to NK for food.

The two incidents are not related....:-)

After spending several days visiting my son and his pit bulls, we did get a bit more relaxed around them.

Well, he did bite the girl on the leg... I'll bet he damn near ripped her leg off! KILL THE EVIL PIT BULL!!!!!!!

No offense FRiend but to ascribe evil to dogs or their actions
takes you far beyond the realm of extremely extreme extremism.

"I still say pit pulls should be bred out of existence, or shipped to NK for food."

It would be great if statist control freaks like yourself would just once have the guts to post a complete list of all of your social fascist views rather than snipe topic by topic.

Since, by definition, those habitually advocating nanny state solutions on any issue quite plainly aren't authentic conservatives.

Also, given there isn't a single reputable animal welfare body in North America which supports 'breed ban' legislation and only PETA which does, it's obvious logic & acquired knowledge of pertinent facts trump emotionally-driven liberal 'extremism'.

This is what I call evil...

Teen accused of feeding kittens to pit bull

"An 18-year-old Dallas man faces cruelty charges after he was accused of slamming kittens to the ground and kicking them toward a snarling pit bull, which tore them apart.
~snip~
They saw the suspect "taking kittens from a blue plastic box and violently throwing them on the ground."

They then saw the man "kicking the kittens towards a brown and white spotted pit bull, who was tearing the kittens apart with its mouth," the report says.

The people in the car yelled at the suspect to stop the maulings.

That's when a woman approached and punched the passenger in the eye, according to the report. She is apparently related to the 18-year-old."
