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."

Why is it most "animal lovers" are PRO ABORTION?

Why is it that most "lawyers" have sex with chipmunks, eat human babies and worship Baal?

See? I'm a comedian too. LOL

As mom of 3 that I home educated, I applaud you for all of your good efforts. Yes, back in 1999 I lurked too and this site back then was...intimidating. Deb used to scare the crap out of me! lol.
Point taken about posting for lurkers. I know another freeper (who has since been banned) that did the same. You, are a wonderful debater! Doesn't matter one bit how many came up against you. You held your own. They remind me, a lot, how liberals operate.
Sorry about Raymond. --Ending a discussion is not running off. I'll just put that out there. Sometimes its taking the higher ground. Lurkers will live. ;)

or be very fearful of a mind which could think in such a non linear fashion.

Laugh at him. I always think that unintentional irony is the best kind, and the dog lover pack has certainly provided lots of on this thread.

Because most Lawyers are liberals. LOL

There are a few of us who are radical. I make Ann Coulter look gay... well, OK, she does that herself. But I am to the right of her on ALL issues.

Maybe the nasty little child should have been taught how to deal with dogs

Keep posting stuff like this, and I'll get over my social conditioning not to be amused by the antics of the mentally deficient

Well, unintentional irony is indeed the best kind. But, the jury is still out on if this is a stunt or just genuine derangement.

Lastly, I can't really enjoy it the same way. I use the killfile in Firefox... so all I see is "All posts by known troll Eekxx have been blocked"

So unless someone is quoting... I am a true recipient of ignorance is bliss !!

I was thinking about this scene from 5 Easy Pieces:

Conversations with Intellectuals. It’s 3 minutes

I do have one question. Does the newest version of photoshop deal with RAW files?

No doggy political correctness, either. :) I had a Rottweiler attack me for tripping over his ass. I shot it. No kidding.

I used an absurd statement for humor, but your statement about most animal lovers being pro aborts is way over the top as well, don't you think? It's always best to stick with facts in arguments and use sarcasm tags where necessary, especially when your credibility is being questioned.

Proverbs 17:28

Darn right... Darn right!

That is a sensible reply.

But, seriously. WHY did you even go there? I mean, you’ve done it on 100% of our exchanges. Never just letting your yes be your yes and your no your no, you seem to always interject some tangent. Is it just this subject matter? The heat of the long drawn out exchange? Normal par for the course bad debate habits on this forum? For real. Am I off base? Do you not see it? You seem like an otherwise sane, sound, respectful, intelligent person... but there is this thing I just can’t quite put my finger on... maybe I’m a bit shell shocked... but it seem just too convenient... Comment?

And if someone has an opinion that certain breeds should be extinct, do they not have the right to that opinion? Can they not make a case for it? I’ve never really thought of that before, and I am neither automatically opposed nor supportive. And while I am deeply moved emotionally by the graphic pictures, my first thought is NOT “wipe them out... all of them” in some Sithy sinister way. My first thought is for the child. My second is, yes, destroy THAT animal. Always. But, my third thought is, OK, someone call Child Protective services... IF the parents, like in this article’s example (see I am still on topic) let their children play with such an animal. I mean I am “WTF were you morons THINKING”?

I think it is the logical extreme of that question which set off our post creator who took my generic reply to the story as a personal reply, which altered the entire rest of this thread.

OK, that’s THREE topics... I hope I didn’t lose you... LOL

I can’t believe I have come back and read any of the rest of this. This is the most bizarre thread, it’s like some parallel universe. Scary and yet totally random. Not even sure what it all means. I keep hoping that at the end it will all make sense and I’ll go, Wow, I’m glad I read to the end!

It was a piece from a movie called “5 Easy Pieces”.

Peace
