special ed teacher threw himself on top of the pitbull when it tried to get into the school.
seriously, teachers are amazing. not all teachers & admins at my kid's school would put themselves in the line of fire, but most of them. I love teachers! |
I agree! The classes outside were 3rd & 4th graders. If it had been kindergartners this story would likely have been a tragedy. |
| Pit bulls are a scourge. |
Yep. |
Thanks for demonstrating how crazy and unhinged pit bull people radicals are. |
Wait - "pit bull people" are unhinged for a clearly tongue-in-cheek suggestion to illustrate the absurdity of the original suggestion to euthanize all pits? Who is really unhinged, here? Pit bulls make up about 5% of the dog population (90M) - so the suggestion here is to kill 4.5M dogs - almost all of whom have done nothing wrong. That's a unjustified mass murder of people's pets. And the reason for this suggested mass murder is in retaliation for a portion of the 30 or so dog bite fatalities each year. Kill 4.5 Million innocent dogs for that? Yeah, sure that makes a ton of sense. Also, the application of this proposal is problematic. Pit bulls aren't a breed. The four/five different kinds of breeds that can be considered to be pit bulls. Further, there millions of pit-mixes. So where does this killing proposal stop? Just euthanize those 4 - 5 breeds? Or do you include all the mixes too? Exactly how many dogs are you suggesting that we kill? Again, almost all of whom have done absolutely nothing wrong. Instead of being hysterical, how about you research more about dog bites and dog-related fatalities and come up with a viable suggestion that will actually help? |
Sterilize all of the pit bulls and pit mixes. Require muzzles on all pits outside. |
Sterilize pit-bull owners while you’re at it.

Voice of reason. Thx, pp. |
No, 16:52 is the voice of reason. |
| Awful story. Terrible breed. |
| I saw a woman at the airport the other day with a pit bull as an emotional support dog..... |
| This is really scary. I'm an elementary teacher and we've had some neighborhood dogs wander onto the school property during recess or during arrival/dismissal. We go into shelter in place and bring the kids inside as quickly as we can, but when it's during arrival/dismissal somebody has to either wrangle the dog or shoo it off property while animal control is called. When I tell my husband stories like these, he always asks why we don't just call security to handle it. I have to remind him every time that there isn't security at elementary schools--he's looking at the "security". I also get the privilege of standing by an exterior door with a glass window during lockdowns. I am supposed to stand there with a walkie talkie and let admin quietly know if I see anybody by my door. Completely unprotected. But I digress..... |
Please tell me it was muzzled. |
I can live with getting rid of 4.5m of them. Here's a quote from you about a study on dog bites "According to the Clifton study, pit bulls, Rottweilers, Presa Canarios and their mixes are responsible for 74% of attacks that were included in the study, 68% of the attacks upon children, 82% of the attacks upon adults, 65% of the deaths, and 68% of the maimings. In more than two-thirds of the cases included in the study, the life-threatening or fatal attack was apparently the first known dangerous behavior by the animal in question." Seems pit bulls are the problem. I say let's just kill them all and save people from this worthless breed. |
