I didn’t mean it personally. I was simply stating an objective fact.

When a pitbull kills a person, the pitbull is to blame.

Here’s another objective observation: your education in human development must have been in a standard university or college. This would explain why you believe things that go against common sense.

Grandparents taking care of grandchildren is part of American heritage. To leave a baby with a grandfather is good judgment.

Your comment criticized the general practice of leaving grandchildren with their grandfather. As a principle. And this is certainly a brainless comment.

However, there is some logic in blaming people for this kind of tragedy. But the blame I’m talking about is on a cultural level.

The culture of advocating for pitbulls. Most if not all of this culture is on the left, which, again, reveals the low IQ of communism.

It sure is personal

I blamed the pit bulls. If you care to read my comment that you’re responding to

I don’t want to get into anything more about this.

My kids -when they were little- rode around the farm in their grandfathers truck with him an old truck no seatbelts

They stayed with both grandparents plenty

I am talking about a 3 month old.

No one else around

I know now that’s not what happened here. I admitted I went by the headline the story I do not want the details on. I’ve seen enough working post op and in the ER

If you care to comment on my comment instead of something you’re dreaming up …

“Grandparents taking care of grandchildren is part of American heritage.”

In TN it’s not warm and fuzzy in that way. My friend was a social worker for the state and way more than half of these instances is because the parents are major drug abusers. Very often the have no involvement in their own kids’lives.

I’d say mammal heritage, where the mammals, like most of the type, are social animals. The young forage and hunt, the old watch the young uns.

I’d say the issue is leaving the child with any single person who owns 7 dogs of any kind. Dogs have a prey drive and a pack drive. The two combined, in the bodies of 7 animals, are a dangerous combo. At minimum, the adult would have to have arm’s length access to a holstered gun with a safety, in case the canines got frisky.
