"If Manslaughter charges could be brought against negligent owners, I think the dog related death numbers would dry up very quickly.It's not enough for owners to be "Nice" to their dogs. Dogs need to feel they are part of the pack.…"

Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"I'd be in favor of licensing for parenting, as well. But I can't imagine the human race agreeing to that."
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"I'm in favor of licensing. Especially in cities.
Honestly, it's win-win. It reduces dog suffering, and would very likely reduce dog attacks.
It would be logistically impossible on a larger scale than in cities. In rural areas it…"
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"What do we do? Extermination for every breed that has ever killed a person? Do we extend that to other species? Extinction for wildcats? Wolves? Hippos? Hippos kill nearly 3,000 people per year. Should we outlaw Automobiles? Those…"
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"Fair enough. You are still suggesting mass murder of dogs because a very smal percentage of them become violent. Fear makes you pretty detestable."
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"30 lives vs. millions is an acceptable tradeoff."
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"I didn't say "It's not the dog" I said, "It's not the breed". I'm fully supportive of putting down specific dogs who attack their owners. But I'm opposed to wiping out a whole breed because of very…"
Trouble Sturm replied to Richard Noah's discussion 'I don't beleve in miracles..... however....'"I've sometimes come out of bad blood sugar crashes, finding myself far from where I last remember being, eating food that I've apparently bought and paid for, with a voice in my head telling me "You can't die. I won't let…"
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"How's that for a run-on sentence?"
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"I'm skeptical of your claims.
Any breed of dog can be dangerous. Any breed can be gentle. It has a lot more to do with the owner than the breed. Pitbulls and Rotties and others tend to attract aggressive owners and breeders.
If we…"
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"So, you want to starve them to death?
How about the dozens of other breeds of dogs with stronger bites? Want to rip their teeth out too?
Why not make it illegal for people with violent criminal records to own dogs? Or make it illegal for…"
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"Still, German Shepherds have a much more dangerous bite when they get aggressive. They have significantly stronger bites.
Pitbulls are far from the most dangerous breed of dogs when they become aggressive. They are simply the most hyped."
Trouble Sturm replied to Unseen's discussion 'Pitbulls - Threat or Menace? Our blind spot when it comes to this breed'"The statistics don't support the notion that pitbulls are more aggressive than other dog breeds. Actually, pitbulls are one of the least likely dogs to attack people.
They are more dog-aggressive, that is, more likely to attack other dogs. but…"
