So my dog has some pit in him. He’s a mutt that I rescued from behind my work.

I’m sure all you e-badasses are ready to come hunt me down.


No, no one gives much of a damn about you. Enjoy your dog, however, if your dog were to find it’s way into my yard it’s unlikely it would be much fun afterward.

Damn that's a rough 42. When I close my eyes and imagine a typical Pit owner, this is the type guy I see.

Gramps should be nominated as a People’s Health Champion for eradicating two pits.

If I'm 60 and I watched my wife mauled to death, I'm thinking I have no problem killing that dogs owners and going to prison


I'd probably just shoot the owner then shoot myself. They were likely married 30-40 year's. I don't know if I could go on.

Knoxville Tn news had an update on this story: the shot dog went back to the porch where it had lived, and there it was dispatched.

Unasked and unanswered is the question: when the owner was arrested, who took over care of his pets? This would have applied if he had kittens, chickens, or the dogs. I don't know the answer, but take someone away, and some provision has to be made for pets and farm animals left at the home place.
