I hope all 4 are put down and she either gets a civil suit or does time. I am sick and tired of the old adage, oh, I don’t know how they escaped and they’ve always been nice...I’m tired of pit bull owners, too. Yeah, that might get folks’ dander up. When you see as many as we do in Cincy, it really bugs you.

Riding on the sidewalk? Is that not against the law?

An old country remedy (not necessarily a GOOD one) was a burlap bag bolted to one of the wheels of an auto. The pest-dogs would grab the flapping burlap and commit suicide by broken neck.

"Ummhhhhh....... I'm actually kinda conflicted here.."

Know what you mean.

If it's just some average Joe, out for a ride, then he should be left in peace to enjoy his bike and the fresh air.

But if it's a skin-tight Spandex, outer-space helmet wearing Armstrong wannabe who thinks he has universal right-of-way, well.......

Halt! Dog Repellent Who knows more about dog attacks that the mailman? Letter carriers have had to deal with aggresive dogs since Claudius Polonius was delivering rolls of parchment to citizens of the Roman Empire. So what do the experts use to repel dog attacks? Well, the U.S. Postal Service has been using Halt! and Halt II Dog Repellent since 1966. You might say they have been conducting field tests for over thirty years. Halt! products use Capsaicin, a naturally occurring extract of peppers, which, when sprayed in a dog's face, causes only temporary, but extreme discomfort for the dog.

Think of it as attitude re-adjustment. Halt! stops him in his tracks, giving you time to move out of danger. Halt!'s pressurized spray is accurate up to 10 feet.
------------------------
I've used this on a dog while I was bicycling one day. It actually worked! It's accuracy is greater than 10 feet according to my experience using it.

Eh...I don’t really have a problem with shooting dogs that have attacked, and the owners should be punished.

I’m against bass turds, in general.

Seriously though, if my pitbull attacked someone, it would be because of some huge problem that I ignored, so I’d expect to be held criminally liable, at the very least.
