Non sequitur after non sequitur. Each time failing to address the issue does not make for debate or entertainment. And its bad propaganda too, because I have no desire on inclination to “prove” anything. So do your own research if you think MY position is inaccurate.
That is if you care to actually address it and take a counter point. So far, all you seem to do is relate your own little stories as if anyone asked or cared.
First: I did not “accuse” anyone of anything. I stated the RISKS associated with the adoption of an unknown animal and directly related that to the responsibility for one’s children. No one was named. No one was accused.
Second: I am not “disapproving of a means to acquire a pet”. Talk about a passive sentence. Either dismiss MY statements directly or IGNORE them entirely. But, do not make them up for me, then try and defeat your made up strawmen.
Third: This is not 4chan, so go find your own information. “pics or STFU” is for 15 year olds on their message boards and is a juvenile tactic. This thread is as good a study as you need. Because the facts fit the case and are self evident. Not withstanding the many other such cases we read here all the time.
Fourth: I do not care who calls you what on what thread or why. This isn’t about you, your feelings or your stories. This is about a dog that attacked a child and the risks towards others who repeat these mistakes and elevate their own risks for their own children.
Start any lists you want. I do not care. Just don’t ping me about it either.
You said "This will piss off the Animal wackos, but NEVER, Never, never, never, never, adopt an adult dog. Ever. You do not know what behaviors, triggers, emotional baggage the animal carries. Or if it will turn at something totally off the mark. If you want a pet: get a baby animal. A puppy, kitten, chick, whatever. Raise it, train it, care for and nurture it."
I responded by sarcastically agreeing with your opinion and then stating my own, which is that how you own a dog has more to do with it's temperment than the age at which you aquire it.
You re-state your opinion that you have to raise the dog right, from an early age.
I point out that I've not had any problem with adult dogs I've 'adopted'.
You inform me that my opinion means nothing, because I might be lying or I might not be able to recognize aggressive behavior in dogs and anyway my story "has NO bearing, NO impact, NO relevance on the LOGIC and the RISKS associated with the THREEFOLD Problem". You then order your readers in ALL CAPS to NOT TAKE THE RISK WITH YOUR CHILDREN! BE RESPONSIBLE.
I demand you produce the reason you feel your opinion is so much more valid than mine, assuming you must have the kind of scientific proof you dismiss me for not having.
You respond by hedging, accusing my of setting up straw men by quoting you, and inform me that this is not 4chan and if I'm not willing to take your word for it that you're right I had better go do my own damn research because as far as you're concerned "The facts fit and the case is self evident"...IE, you're right because you say so.
