[Eagles Talon IV]

All dogs are attracted to anti freeze due to it being sweet. I catch your drift but don’t agree that poisoning them is the way. The acts of these animals are not premeditated nor the result of any conscious hatred of the victim. It is a natural by product of their evolution, breeding and the environment in which they are raised.

The destruction of any life, including those of an animal should be humane and swift.

Naturally, I agree with you. I don’t have alot of time for pit bulls, and I have even less time for their advocates and owners.

(And on other threads I’ve already established that the animals that many people call “pit bulls” aren’t. The ones I’m talking about are mungrel mutts of unknown lineage bred to fight: every undesirable trait that a dog can have has been preserved in their bloodline. If that describes someone’s pet, then I have no time for them. If that does not describe their pet, then we’re not talking about the same dog.)

The problem with destroying Pit Bulls humanely is getting close enough to them to give them the needle: most the ones I’ve seen are far, far too vicious. A shotgun might be a better selection. If there’s more than one, a flamethrower would be wiser.

So no, I don’t really advocate poisoning Pit Bulls, particularly if there are better ways of eliminating these breeding mistakes from the canine gene pool. But it’s rather like as if a group of subhumans were to begin breeding and keeping King Cobras and letting them run loose. How do you safely get rid of such a dangerous pet?
