Remind me again why pitts are still legal pets? They need to be allowed to die out as a breed. Mass sterilization. I mean seriously.

+1 Especially given the prior complaints. They're culpable.


They're getting charged with misdemeanors. That's the truly ridiculous part. Just a slap on the wrist.

+1. That poor woman. What a terrible way to die. I will never understand why we tolerate people collecting pit bulls and leaving them in yards like ticking bombs.

Interesting that the NYTimes is only referring to them as mixed breed. Is that their editorial spin or the Florida sheriff's? Tragic.

Pit owners exist in a whole other universe of crazy and denial.

Article said the owner is pretty old and there have been complaints about the aggresivity of his dogs in the past but that the owner brushed them off.

Agressive dogs kill a postal worker--and the dog owner gets slapped on the wrist with misdemeanors.

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/23/us/florida-mail-carrier-dog-attack.html

Pamela Jane Rock had been out delivering mail when her vehicle broke down in Putnam County, Fla. Then, five dogs attacked her, the authorities said.

Mary Campbell glanced out the window of her Florida home on Sunday afternoon, trying to figure out where the muffled cries for help were coming from. She heard them again, this time a bit louder, though clearly coming far from her house: “Help!”

A few minutes later, she saw an ambulance and sheriff’s deputies drive down the rural dirt road that makes up Walker Drive in Putnam County, and park beside the house where five combative dogs lived, she said.

Soon, neighbors learned the grim details of what had occurred, according to the authorities: A mail carrier whose vehicle had broken down had been attacked by five dogs. She died the next day.
“They’re all aggressive,” Ms. Campbell said of the dogs.

The owner of those dogs, Colonel Wells said at the news conference, was charged with misdemeanors related to the dog attack.
