My guns are deadly, but they don’t go off on their own.

Downtown Riverside CA, eh?

Bet I know how that went down.

"Vato, you won't believe what I saw.
I saw these pack of dogs and they act real hard... (And what they do?)
They wagged their tails, say you know who we are...
She say 'I don't give a damn' so they began to gnaw ... (Ah huh)
They kept biting her and it went too far,
So animal control went to the trunk of his car (And what he get?),
He got his lasso and they start barking hard,
He started swinging and then he just charged..."

Only takes two pit bulls. Prolly would have taken about 30 feral yutes.

Should we assume that if there’s a hole in your fence, your dog will get try to kill someone walking on the street by ripping them apart? I keep reading these accounts about pit bulls. We lived on a farm and always had dogs over the years. I was never afraid one would get out and go on a killing rampage.

It’s like having a lion or cougar as a pet - better not let him out or some of the neighbors will go missing! Someone posting on another thread commented that pit bull killings in the US exceeded the number of lions killing people in Africa last year. I don’t know if it’s true, but it seems reasonable because people acknowledge those animals as hazardous and unsuitable for living among people.

How likely is it she would have survived if someone wasn’t home to pull the bigger dog off her?

I’ve seen the way pond scum treat the pit bull breeds. Makes you want to do a little double tap. Not all animals walk on four legs.

Truthfully, after some of the stuff I’ve seen, I’d look the other way if some of these owners got what they deserved....before the authorities arrived.

As one who walks their dog and has been attacked 6 times in 6 years by various breeds, I walk with a 5 foot pole with a trident fish spear at the end of it(good for dogs, rattlesnakes, whatever), bear pepper spray, and a small but powerful taser. I carefully choose my routes and time of day for walks. You don’t have to be afraid or start banning EVERYTHING you fear(in my case;drunks, ‘bangers, cornered rattlesnakes, aggressive coyotes, ALL loose dogs..) but one should be smart and be in control of their environment as much as possible. Unfortunately there are risks out there, have been and always will be. If I had my druthers in this stupid state(CA)I would be carrying.

No rabies vaccination, not altered. The owner should be castrated if not put down.

I don't like pit bulls. That said, I have come to suspect that most of these "pit bull" attacks are attacks by dogs. who are assigned pit bull status because the reporters and editors police define dogs that attack people or other dogs as "pit bull" with no regard to physiognomy or ancestry.

I think we should start turning pit bulls loose when the feral yutes attack. Let ‘em have a turn on the little bastards.
