Pit bulls are innocent
State proposals to ban pit bulls reflect society's worst fears and prejudices. As the Michael Vick scandal has made clear, it is humans and not the dogs who are the criminals.
By Ken Foster [2007-08-20]

  • Linear Chaos - are you blind, or just stupid?

    Being disabled is even more reason to lock your doors. I guess being disabled allows one free reign to neglect even the simplest of measures to prevent prowlers? Like lessons taught to school pre-elementary school children?

    Um, did you even bother to read any of the stories posted here regarding the disabled lady who was mauled by two, count 'em two sweet, loving, marauding pit bulls? She apparently had a caretaker dog of her own, from what I've read. She had a doggie door for her dog. The pit bulls came in thru the doggie door.

    Here, read this and educate your ignorant self:

    Are other dog owners now supposed to lock their doggie doors so that rabid pit bulls won't invade their homes in the middle of the night?

    I love that you're blaming the victim for this vicious attack, by the way. I suppose you also blame children for being molested, and blame women for being raped, right?

    I have a simple solution for the pit bull problem - when a pit bull engages in one of its vicious random freakout attacks on some innocent victim, just kill the owners. Not only would it reduce the "cool factor" that surrounds this ticking timebomb of a breed - hopefully bringing about its eventual extinction - it would also serve to chlorinate the human gene pool.
