Family dog mauls girl
NT News ^ | Sept 11, 2010 | Annie Sanson

A TERRITORY girl is lucky to be alive after she was mauled by a savage dog.

Seven-year-old Meg Croton and her brother Connor, 9, had been feeding their family's dog - an eight-year-old mastiff cross - in their Humpty Doo back yard when the girl was attacked by the vicious hound.

"I tripped on a rock and fell, and I think I kicked his leg," Meg recalled the attack. "And then it hurt very badly and he was on top of me and ripped on my head. "But my brother saved my life."

Actually it reveals the depth of your intellect which at this point seems lower than a grave diggers boots.

You need to go back to school.

Either that or we can all sit around and wait til’ you turn 30 and suddenly discover “You got more questions than answers”.

Maybe going to school doesn’t prepare you for life.

Oh please.

Like you even read anything I posted or have clue what the debate is about. You just got a ping from a drinking buddy and rushed on over with the sexist remarks.

4 hours ago, this WAS still an actual debate. But everyone else with character and class has been run off. Now it is a parody thread. And you missed both.

This thread is dead.

If you have big boobs you might get a job as your brains ain't going to do it.

Read the entire thread. Eaker's comments may have been crass, but they are valid. RachelFaith only believes that her opinion is correct, even though she has no experience; she basically has called those with experience idiots. Her debating skills are severely lacking, yet she claims to have just graduated from law school. Thus, I believe, the reason for Eaker's comment.

I even got a Ghostbusters reference in there.

Snort! Isn't ARL part of PETA? And we all know how PETA shelters take care of unwanted dogs.

Maybe that IS what she learned in Law School...Insist that your opinion is the only sensible one, and avoid arguing with anyone whose character you disapprove of.

What I’m late and the party is over?

Well dangit!

Then I must take my leave of you and watch Eaker chase his tail acting all confused because the Wookie Moderator spanked him.

It was actually funny, though I too don’t understand why the Wookie pulled the comment.

Have a good night.

PS

I read the thread all the way back to the beginning and disagreed your style of training. But to each their own.

Oh, and my dogs are strong personalities, takes commands once but more than that, they are the biggest babies on the planet.

If they want to sleep on the bed, fine. When I want them off, getting down is not an option.

Just like heeling or sitting. Saves dogs lives when they decide to dog things and run into the street or woods.

Oh, and they are Cockers which before I had them my opinion was they were one of the worst dogs.

Came to learn they are highly intelligent and want to do things like any other dog.

They take over 40 commands and about 5 in Spanish.

The only bad dog is the result of the owner.

The owner has to own the responsibility for being in charge, dominance and play.

I don’t care if they adults when you get them. All dogs learn all the time.

They don’t suffer from over stimulation and need stuff to do and they want to do it with you.

I could go on and on but I want to see Eaker whine some more and if he stays on this thread he might just forget there are other threads and go blind.

(hopefully my grammar and spelling are numerous on this post)

Toss ‘em in the dumpster!
Seriously though, didn’t you see that she’s probably the ONLY conservative in the entire world that volunteers for them? That must mean she’s the most compassionate conservative in the whole wide world...

I read the entire thread. Your arguments are weak and based on self-admitted minimal experience. Perhaps you should try facts and references to bolster your arguments instead of lecturing on your feelings. Isn’t that what you were taught in your moot court classes in school?

In your post you just insulted the Sidebar Moderator and many good Freepers on this thread. Do you think that was a classy thing to do?

Did your " law school " teach you that the same day they taught you the meaning of the word " cite " ?

The words cite and citation are something most have learned before day one in College English, let alone getting through law school.

The correct use of the words cite/site/sight is usually hardwired into a student's brain by the time one is accepted into an accredited university.

He even called his Wife. She was the one defending him. Class and dignity personified.

But hey, I have no debate skills and a dozen people are needed to tell me this by insulting my age, sex, hair, boobs, IQ, family, etc etc...

There is a game called “king of the hill”. All kids know how it’s played. A gang of people all try and rush to the bottom and push the weakest.... no wait... LOL

There is a REASON it is called self evident truth....

But seriously, thanks for hanging out and keeping the thread honest with another perspective.

I site for your reference the adjudgement of character has been called into question and sitations given of this cite and it’s flagrant use of humor.

Even the Wookie spied in and gave a sitation of the right cite of how we do things here.

With great inciteful commentary we have been amused by the muse, RachelFaith, so much a special sightation has been afixed to the longlegged one’s cite.
