This should be in chat. Seriously, your cause is for another forum. People should start to complain about your postings on FR. Way too often, for a phobia of dogs.
Shoot the basturd!!!
And the dawg too!!!...
It’s in chat!!!,,,DUH...
You might consider pondering the meaning of “phobia,” and also whether Chet has posted reports or warnings about dogs that have not attacked or threatened to attack someone.

There's nothing wrong with posting these reports as they show the continuing danger that these dogs pose to people in cities. If you live in the country and have one, then at least someone else can shoot it if it gets out of hand.
The city is no place for these kinds of dogs and these news reports are what is actually happening with these dogs. I'm surprised they haven't been outlawed in more places. They probably will be as time goes on.
Oh... from our insurance agent -- forget about getting house insurance if you own this dog at your house ... LOL ... you're not going to get insurance (at least not anything affordable ... :-)
Shoot the dog; hang the owner.
Lock both in a shipping container for a week then shoot the dog.It will have eaten it’s owner!
That’ll work.
Its not the dogs fault.
Its the abusive owners fault. / sarc
Why are such a disproportionate amount of animal abusers drawn to pitbulls?
I don’t believe it is always an abusive owner’s fault. Considering the genetic history of the breed, you don’t know how far your cute little puppy is from fighting stock. I have limited trust in PB’s.

Keeping a pit bull on a chain raises stupidity to Darwin levels.
The man shouldn't have bothered him while the dog was going to buy a drink.
Your defense of vicious dogs is seriously out of whack!
Hold muh beer!
“Why are such a disproportionate amount of animal abusers drawn to pitbulls?”<<<<<<
They too believe the dogs are bad and desire them. The same thing happened to German Shepherds, Rotties, and Dobies, and the media was right there reporting away the whole time.
And why on Earth can you not see that a dog chained up to a pole by a man who is willing to run away is not at fault? It’s a freaking DOG, and the OWNER couldn’t be bothered to do the right thing?? How the heck is it NOT the owner’s fault?

I really don’t think it’s a secret...news reporters love pit bull stories. I find it sad though, that most people still cannot accurately identify a pit bull, given all the attention they receive. Perhaps that is why the CDC says they are often misidentified and overreported.
By the way, if you live in the city or country and your dog is running loose, you’re an irresponsible dog owner, and THAT is what the experts all agree is the reason behind dog attacks of all breeds.
On a side note, there are a few insurance companies that will not discriminate on dog owners based on the breed of dog. I believe Farmer’s Insurance is one of these, but I have also heard that it depends on which agent you talk to. Some of them don’t even know their own policies, unfortunately.
