comment from the side: wow, talk about being an asshole in full diarrhea mode




SAGAN: We are releasing vast quantities of carbon dioxide, increasing the greenhouse effect. It may not take much to destabilize the Earth's climate, to convert this heaven, our only home in the cosmos, into a kind of hell.

She also said this isn't the first time the dog attacked someone. It had been aggressive in at least two other situations.

"One [incident] happened when the owner had tied his dog [outside] a dé?panneur [convenience store] ... on a post and from what I understand when he came back, [the dog] was on the jacket of an individual that he doesn't know," she said.

The dog also attacked the owner's cousin, because it thought the cousin was an intruder, she said.

The site gives statistics showing that fatal attacks by pit bulls
account for more human deaths than all other breeds combined.
They have No real competition in this field.

Yes, I have met friendly pit bulls.
I have read about heroic pit bulls.

Nevertheless, I feel the breed should be controlled,
restricted to owners who are successful dog trainers.

If they've been killing 22 humans per year on average,
mostly children & elderly, I can't see how this is acceptable
in our society.

(Otoh, crazy human, gun owners have a much worse record.
But as the USA has about 323 million people, maybe
that's why we can kill so many more than the dogs do.)

OK. Let's try to keep our perspective on this issue. Hmmm?

No, I didn't run out of headlines about this.
I just got tired of listing them.

... Whenever I hear someone say, "Pit Bulls are great dogs.
They just have a bad rap."
I can agree in reverse: What's wrong with their rap: It's not bad enough.

They were bred for fighting, for strength, aggression & fearlessness.
Not bred for intelligence, tractability, or cooperation.

Most of them will go their whole lives without hurting anyone. How
do you pick out the good pit bulls from the nasty ones? I don't know,
& I don't care. They should be treated as a controlled substance.
