Pit bulls attack 6-month-old boy

I’m sorry.

I simply *can’t* get past the third paragraph without going into a giggling fit.

It’s just too easy to “twist”.

[Salamander]

‘Why the forensic analysis of the trampoline?”

Potential highly “beneficial” litigation of the manufacturer, of course.

Obviously it was defective or it would not have willfully flung said dwarf into aforementioned Pippo’s maw like so much herring to a sea lion.

[ban pit trampolines now!]

“Pippo”

The other, other Marx Brother.

[Salamander]

I thought Baraq only had a sister?

[shibumi]

Now, finally! The truth comes out!

The rash of Hippo Attacks is the result of Pit Yorkies, cleverly disguised in "Pippo" costumes!

[Slings and Arrows]

Never trust a rat the tries to pass itself off as a dog. (Or a hippo.)

Wicked, biting sense of humor.

I like it.

Crazy to think a breed of dog is to blame??? That is exactly what is to blame.
I've been training dogs forever. Bomb dogs, dope dogs, attack dogs and even service dogs. Now I work with stock dogs. Border collies and Belgian sheepdogs. We take the border collie pups out of the kennel at 8 weeks old and and put them on a flock of ducks to see if they will work. Most of them instantly start herding the ducks. It is called instinct. These pups have had very limited human contact. They work because they have been bred for the last 200 years to work. It is not nurture, it is nature.
Pitt bulls have been bred for the last 200 years to bite and fight. This too is a bred in instinct. It is there because it has been bred into them. It is nature, not nurture. The owners are usually ignorant of the dogs potential but it is the dogs that attack, maim, and sometimes kill. If pit bulls didn't exist in this country this child would be intact and unharmed. That is an unavoidable fact.

I know, it puts me in mind of the girls in Bangk...

If pit bulls didn't exist

If alcohol didn't exist...

1.On average, someone is killed by a drunk driver every 40 minutes in US
2.Each day 36 people die and almost 700 more are injured in vehicle crashes that involve a drunk driver
3.The total cost of alcohol related crashes is roughly $51 billion
4.In 2006, out of 1,746 fatality that included children one out of six (291) was killed by an alcohol impaired driver
5.Half of all teenage fatalities is due to drunk driving
---------------------------
If firearms didn't exist...

Between 1999 and 2006...ages 1-16...4579 deaths by firearms

~654 children per year
-------------------------
If swimming pools didn't exist...

[it would] prevent the tragic drowning of 250 children under the age of 5 annually in swimming pools
----------------

If liberals didn't exist...

49,551,703 preborn were killed between 1973 and 2007
~1,457,403 per year.
----------------

If all the dogs on this list didn't exist...

then all those children would still be alive.

And what is your purpose in reading them?

And it’s “sole”, not “soul”

[Shimmer1]

The most horrible, aberrant, repulsive thing about these threads is that the pit bulls attack, maul, tear the flesh of human beings.

I’m sorry you have a problem with being warned. I think Chet99 is doing us a service.

[kanawa]

Pitt bulls have been bred for the last 200 years to bite and fight. This too is a bred in instinct. It is there because it has been bred into them. It is nature, not nurture.

If you knew anything about these dogs
you'd know they were and are used for far more than fighting and biting.
They are a multi-functional dog.

You'd also know that they were specifically bred not to be human aggressive.

Stop your hand-wringing liberal nonsense,
get some actial experience with these dogs
and come back with some conservative solutions.

[kanawa]

I think Chet99 is doing us a service.

If Chet were doing us a real service he would be posting attacks by all dogs.

He would be offering analysis to the causes of all dog attacks.

He would be offering conservative solutions to lessening dog attacks.

What service does he providing beside titillating a morbid desire
of some to read threads of "horrible, aberrant, repulsive things"?
What have you learned that you couldn't have learned in just one thread by Chet?

I think it's an 'horrible, aberrant, repulsive thing'
that a fanatic like Chet will post a "pit bull attack" resulting in an injury like this...

but refuses to post a fatality caused by any other type of dog

[Eaker]

Great post kanawa!

Let see what our dog “expert” (LOL!) has to say.

[Shimmer1]

I disagree. Just because I might post articles on how bad Obama is, does that mean if I don’t post articles on how bad all politicians are, then I’m not doing anyone any favors?

If you don’t like them. don’t read them! But to come on here just to snipe and complain seems ....odd, at best.

[GSP.FAN]

This is not a pitbull it is a Hippo and a African..

[GSP.FAN]

So Chet99 is doing us a service by his fascination on reporting pitbull attacks,but not reporting any other dog attacks???????????????
