Liberal Gun Control Fanatic Mark Kelly, the husband of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords should be consistant and support the euthanasia of all Pit Bull Dogs instead of blaming guns for violence against children!





06/11/09: 3-Year Old Suffers Devastating Injury Odessa, TX - On June 4, 3-year-old Shaylee Crosson, known as "Shaylee bug," was playing at her grandmother's house near Dallas, Texas. Moments later she was brutally attacked by a neighbor's pit bull. The little girl was rushed to the Dallas Children's Hospital where a team of doctors worked to repair extensive injuries that she suffered. It was reported that 80% percent of her scalp was ripped away in the attack and her little face suffered deep lacerations as well.

Sea Lions, pit bulls, hypocrites, no sympathetic characters in this story.

I must say that anyone that wants a Pit Bull has an innate personality flaw.

Big dog, little pee-pee.

“Police say the dog broke from its leash, and no laws were broken.”

Sure, of course that is what happened.

As seen in the video, at least the leash didn’t break. Yep, there is no way they were violating the leash law because THESE people would never do that and they certainly wouldn’t lie about it.

The women were pulling the seal as if playing a tug of war with the dog. Won’t work with a pit. That may have done as much damage to the seal as the bite alone. They should have shoved the dogs head under water. Most likely the dog’s instinct to lock it’s bite would have released to get a breath.

That is a marine preserve. If it were anyone else, there would be hell to pay.

Or, this may be a scheme to get Kelly’s meme out of the doghouse.

Mind if I and my “little pee pee” sit down with ya?

Personally, I feel sorry for the seal and disgusted that he lets his daughter walk around with a dog she obviously cannot control.

Bottom line, it’s the owners.

At her age [and earlier, frankly] I was handling large “dangerous” dogs without any problems.

Then again, my dogs were properly trained... that was *my* -responsibility-.

I’m not sure how they got away without charges being filed.

In my area, ‘failure to control your animal’ is actionable.

Maybe he’s “special”.

[your humanity’s just fine, btw]

I respect dogs that respect children. All others deserve three fingers through the neck.

I feel safer knowing that police officers in my city shoot loose Pit Bulls on site if they are off the leash. Reading your link just makes me want to shoot one of these bastard dogs myself. 2 weeks ago one was in my backyard, and my gun was inside, or it would have been swiss cheese!

Mark Giffords is a coward and a liar for allowing a live demon weapon murder a protected species baby seal, and walking away without rendering aid to the poor defenseless, innocent dying creature the demon pit bull murdered in cold blood, in public, in front of children.

Maybe I need my eyes checked but the dog had a leash on it.

The dumb ass woman whacking it on the face with that stick did nothing but further agitate the dog.

Somebody should keep playing this as a public service announcement about how *not* to stop a biting dog.

Why do I having a sneaking suspicion the girl went up to the cute little seal to get a closer look?

I pulled my cat off of a lizard last week. The vet said he couldn’t save the little guy, though.
