They come on here and defend their own dogs. They never express any feelings about the victims or anger at the dog owners. I called one of them on that yesterday. All he could do was call me a liberal dog hater. He came off like a real simple minded fool.
A: I don’t have a pit bull.
B: I grieve for all the victims, which also includes the dogs who have been mishandled, ill-trained, inappropriately confined/abused/misused/corrupted.
C: I am SO pissed off at the owners of the dogs that injure other beings, you can’t ~even~ imagine.
*That* is why I advocate -severe- penalties for the -owners-.
-Merciless- penalties.
-Felony- penalties.
The animal is just that; a dumb animal incapable of -intentional- malice and without the intellect to know “right” from “wrong”.
They are but dumb beasts who are born tabula rasa and *we* are responsible for what is subsequently written on that slate.
The *owners* are [theoretically] ~supposed~ to be more intelligent than their pets.
For every shrieking news story, for every thread posted about it, the only things accomplished is to further aggrandize the “reputation” of these dogs, thereby making them even *more* desirable to the thuggish cretins who shouldn’t even own a parakeet, let alone a pit bull and demonize responsible owners of any type of “bully” breed whose dog will never harm so much as a flea.
When someone feeds on the “scary” attention their dogs brings to them, the *only* way to defeat them is to *starve* them.
*If* everyone stopped being afraid of these “killer dogs” and the media had the sense to stop inadvertently promoting them by sensationalizing them, the thugs wouldn’t be so inclined to want them.
What “bad ass gang banger” wants a dog that everyone mocks, snickers at or even worse, is thoroughly unimpressed by?
These -idiots- are smart to enough to use ‘killer dog’ psychology on intelligent people yet the hypothetically intelligent people aren’t smart enough to turn it around on them.
Most of them are. So your a liberal dog hater,typical response from the I Q challenged..:O)
