Is that you, Chet?
I miss Chet’s contributions. It’s an honor to be mentioned in the same sentence.
Chet was ok.
He was doing a public service by warning about pit bulls.
Chet was ok.

What’s so funny?
What was wrong with chet?
Where’s a cop when the family dog needs shooting?
Good for that dog, she’s one in a million. Literally.
Chet saw pit bulls under his bed, on the roof, in the backseat of his car, (um) `tailing’ him on the street, peering through his windows, auditing his taxes, dating his teenage daughters ... well, you get my point.

Okey dokey ... I like it too.
But I pay a bull mastiff and an American bulldog to protect
me from evil, omnipresent, death-dealing pit bull terriers.
So I’m thinking you need to contact some hard dogs and buy
some protection. Or just never leave your home.
It was wierd. He never did that before.
I read that. What’s that got to do with Chet?
Right...cuz chet ain’t got nuthin to do with pitbulls
(And, by the way, I find that story extremely hard to believe.)
Think of all the news articles about pit bulls who have attacked/killed children.
I think it's very unwise to have one around children. I would never own one.
Prayers for the baby girl. She must have been terrified.

It’s not worth the risk.
There was a pit bull roaming our neighborhood last week. I’m out for a walk and this thing is stalking me, walking through the neighbor’s yards while I am walking on the sidewalk,
It would start to rush me and when I turned towards it, it would stop and take up position peering around bushes. When I turned my back to it and started walking again it moved towards me.
I darted into a neighbor’s house, did not even knock on the door. I have never been scared of a dog before but this time I was. It was an eerie feeling.
All pit bulls should be banned in residential neighborhoods. They are no more suited for a neighborhood than is a mountain lion or other wild animal.
The story of this 2 year old makes me sick. Ban pit bulls!
I Like Chet!
