[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my neighborhood. https://moco360.media/2024/12/18/pitbull-fatally-shot-wednesday-after-attacking-two-women-in-bethesda/

I want to know which idiot neighbor has two pitbulls that they don’t keep secured. [/quote]

I'd like a public list of any a hole who doesn't keep their dogs secured. Sounds like the human(s) got bit trying to breakup a dogfight that never should've happened, and the end result is 2 dead dogs. How sad! Dog owners should be more responsible about securing and controlling their animals.

But... if the "pitbull(s)" in question were really the vicious beasts y'all want to claim, how is anyone alive to tell this tale? This is literally a dogfight. Could've been any breed of dog. It's sad, and the owners of the loose dogs should be fined (honestly, they should be prevented from owning dogs), but this isn't a clear statement about the breed unless you're willing to say no other dogs behave this way, and they literally all can and do.

It's sensational because "someone said pitbull". Someone said pitbull shouldn't be news.[/quote]
What?! One dog kills a dog and sends two adults to the hospital, and you think that doesn’t make it a vicious beast because the women aren’t dead too? That’s insane.  This story would make the news anywhere regardless of the type of aggressive dog involved because gunshots and police sirens in quiet suburban neighborhoods are always newsworthy.  It just so happens that, as is so very often the case, the vicious out of control dog turned out to be a pitbull.[/quote]

Missed the point, eh? This whole thread has pages of examples of ignorant idiots who think pitbulls just kill anything they see for the joy of it. If that were true, the women would be dead too. They're not.

"as is so very often the case" Bro, this doesn't happen "very often" at all, which is why it makes the news. And if you want to talk about how many of the incredibly-infrequent incidents are pit bulls, you need stats on how many "pit bulls" there are vs. other breeds so that the context is factually represented.

All of which has been said on this thread, ad nauseam, but, again, "someone said pitbull" and now... this (again).

Y'all are a trope. It's like TDS. Pit Bull Derangement Syndrome or something...[/quote]

"Sends two adults to the hospital" with minor, non life threatening injuries they probably incurred trying to break up a dog fight w/o knowing how (understandable, but still not smart). Again, this doesn't support the "pit bulls attack anything that moves" posturing so many of the haters use to justify their hate. [/quote]

No one has claimed that pit bulls attack anything that moves.

You are having a weird response to an awful story. The aggressive dog (whatever it's breed), killed this woman's dog. That's terrible. As an animal lover, my heart breaks for the dog and for her.

Disturbing detail: while the police waited for backup, the aggressor was left to EAT THE DEAD DOG in the yard. That's... very upsetting.

If your first response to this story is to launch into a defense of pit bulls because the dog in this story did not also kill or maim two humans, that is a weird instinct.

It's true that we don't actually know if the dog was a pit. Though pits are very easy to spot at this point because they are so common.[/quote]
