[Rodney King]

I admire you guys greatly for lending this guy a helping hand, but I think that the city is getting a bad rap. A bum is living in a park with a vicious dog. I have a 16 month old daughter, and we live right by a park with a war memorial. We walk there all the time. If there was a smelly bum living there with a vicious dog who was biting people that got too close to the memorial I would want him gone, too.

There is something about people with vicious dogs. They all think that because their relationship with their dog is so special, that they should be immune from responsibility when their dogs attack people. I have seen it happen before. These people almost alwasy beleive that the kid who got bitten was to blame - and they are always wrong.

I'd like to see this hero get some help, and I would like to see him reunited with his dog. But it is absurd to think that this guy has a right to live on the war memorial.

A smelly bum and his rabid dog????
I added the "rabid" part only because it is a matter of time before that gets used as an excuse.

Seems kinda irresponsible to me that you would let your kid go near the dog. And if the guy stinks, so what, walk upwind of him ... its a free country!

" But it is absurd to think that this guy has a right to live on the war memorial."

In my view, he has more of a right to be there than someone like you would. He paid for his right to be there in blood and his own flesh! What have you given?

Will the real Rodney King please stand up! "Oh, can't we all just get along now!"

Your assumptions about Mr. Northcut are not correct.
