Is this the Du or some other left wing site? We don’t like something so we’ll just take it away from you. It’s for your own or the good of the community at large.What would you like to get rid of next?
I do agree the woman would have been better off to shoot the dog.
It will be the free market (bounties) and justice by free American citizens in action. On the other hand, “the Du or some other left wing site” would want to continue unnatural affections for animals preferred over people, preferences for government banning use of firearms to defend against dangerous animals, and the like.
“What would you like to get rid of next?”
I vote we get rid of alcohol.
It causes tens of thousands of more deaths and disfigurements each year than all dogs combined.
There are many other drinks that are just as tasty and dont have the inherent danger of alcohol.’
There may be responsible drinkers who drink safely
just as there might be responsible dog owners that safely own their dog
but we cant afford take the chance.
For the greater good, people must not be allowed to drink alcohol.
I’m sure the dog banners here won’t mind giving up their posting juice for the greater good,
I mean this is all about saving lives and not having to live in fear.
If anyone disagrees it just exposes them as a low life,
likely compensating for a small penis and probably a criminal.
I think its an idea whose time has come.
I’m sure we can count on the media to assist us, if it bleeds it leads will work in our favor.
All we need do is post every gruesome story we can find caused by alcohol.
We can easily generate the hysteria need to pressure politicians to act.
We will cast aspersions on the character of all drinkers,
vilify them and once the ban is in place come down with the full force of THE LAW on any recalcitrants.
“Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.”
William Pitt 1781
This is just Pitt bull...Safety is necessary or there can be no freedom and only a tyranny, democratic or otherwise can ensure the safety and common good of all units of the State.It time to let go of the outdated notions of personal responsibility and accountability. People, a priori, can not be trusted to act responsibly. Only State mandated collective responsibility and the limiting of freedom can ensure the safety and greater happiness of all the State’s units.
What good is freedom? It only allows people to make mistakes. Mistakes are not good. Safety is the Prime Good, all other goods derive from Safety. Freedom, pshaw, it is so 18th century. It’s time for progressive change that puts society first and the individual a distant second.
The pit bull terrier breed has proven to be undeniably aggressive, with a tendency to attack people and other animals outside the turf range of "normal" canines.
The reports of vicious attacks by these animals abound in the press, and the pit bull terrier has rightfully earned the reputation of a terrorist animal.
Personally, I feel that the breed should be classified as an exotic, or wild animal, which should only be owned by people who have the proper facilities and responsibility to handle them. I'd like to see them regulated much the same way that tigers and other dangerous animals are.
There's no question now that this breed is a menace to the general welfare. The only question now, is how to best protect the public without abridging individual citizens' rights.
