[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote=Anonymous]I just read the article. I hope they catch him and he gets jail time. [b]He shouldn’t have been close enough to a woman walking at 11pm to even have the dog growl at him, and nowhere does it say he lunged or attacked the person.[/b] A growl us a warning. The man was too close to his owner. That’s what dogs are good for. [/quote]

This stood out to me too. Normal men do not get close enough to a woman out in a residential neighborhood walking a dog alone at night. The dog was freaked and probably rightly so. You don't shoot Air Bud because you were being a creeper. [/quote]

[b]No you are allowed to walk down a street at 11 pm even if there is a woman there walking her dog. Just stop.[/b] [/quote]

Yes, you are *allowed* just like you are *allowed* to stand right next to someone at an ATM. But it's still rude and suspicious behavior.  Considerate people--and especially considerate men--give other people--and especially women--space when conditions permit.  On a dark neighborhood street, a considerate man gives a woman walking alone space.  Do you seriously not know any women?[/quote]

Np here. If the walkway or sidewalk is narrow, the man has every right to be there and use the walkway or sidewalk. If he doesn't want to walk around the woman by stepping onto the street or stepping on someone's lawn to get around the woman there's not a lot she can complain about.[/quote]

He has the right, but it's antisocial behavior late at night and he should be aware that he is probably going to (rightly) be perceived as a potential threat. He has the right to not care, but considerate people generally don't choose to make people uncomfortable or afraid. [/quote]

Well, there's nothing to stop women from keeping their distance too. Don't put this all on men. [/quote]

So a woman is walking down the street with her dog. A man stops a car and approaches her...and she should have kept her distance because not to do is putting it all on men?

Do I have that right?[/quote]
