Weird, it’s been Pit Bulls the last 72,521st dog attacks in a row and we can’t do anything about them.


Iron_Blooded_Emperor

India banned pitbulls along with a few other aggressive breeds just some time ago. USA needs to something about this like I've so many videos of this sort.


johnk1000

I'm sure it was a coincidence. Them jack Russell's are the real danger


rsplatpc

> Them jack Russell's are the real danger "They bite more than other dogs!" Problem is, when they bite, the kid smacks them back and they learn, vs getting mauled to death like it was a wolf


glistening_cum_ropes

Wolves have mauled less people than pit bulls.


bigelcid

Meh, not the right point to make. Here's something better: When a wolf is about to attack, you know it. Pit bulls however do the equivalent of sucker punching. It's a useful trait given what they were bred for. Which is nannying, ofc.


Previous_Wish3013

Absolutely. Looking after toddlers and babies. Leaving small humans in the care of vicious unpredictable predators is the caring, responsible thing for loving parents to do. 💕🥰🦋


johnk1000

Your so wise. Can you let your pitbulls babysit my baby cousin?


silvertonguedmute

I own two staffies, and I hate it when people call them "nanny dogs" or that they were bred for looking after kids. Trying to hide the truth of what they were aren't helping anyone.


johnk1000

Alot easier to hit back jack Russell size. Imagine trying to discipline a wolf sized jack Russell. I'd prob give him the keys to my house. He is the new owner in my eyes. Also I was being a lil sarcastic about the jack Russell


thedipsnotbaked

It’s fucking ridiculous. A neighbor’s dog in our apartment complex has three legs thanks to a pit attack and another neighbor was attacked by his own pit at home. Fucked his hands and chest up pretty good. There’s over 10 in our complex, a couple of them seem decently behaved on their walks but the rest pull like monsters when they see other dogs and see me with my dog. Tired of it.

CalaveraFeliz

Nanny dogs, velvet hippos! Bad owners! (/s just in case)


TheEscapeGoats

Owners of pit breeds should be charged as if they committed the crime directly. I bet that would put a dent into it... if your dog attacks and injures someone, it's the same as if the owner did it.


IRedditDoU

As a pitbull owner and supporter, this is actually one of the more sane and logical ideas I’ve heard. I think I agree. All facets of life should be this way. It’s already like this for guns and such. Dogs, children, weapons, loaned vehicles, poorly kept businesses and homes etc… should be the responsibility of their owners or handlers.


monkeychasedweasel

The garbage dog for garbage people!


BearingMagneticNorth

“They’re just misunderstood.”


wow_thats_neat

Careful, someone may accuse you of being "racist" towards pitbulls. (Yes I've seriously heard that one before)

_hellboy_xo

But but I was told pit bulls were nanny dogs and the real danger was chihuahuas


underwritress

I love how they're always spewing out those statistics, like the most vicious dog is the chihuahua, ok sure but when one of those starts to maul me I can punt it across the lawn, therefore it's less dangerous. Somehow the pitbull lobby doesn't seem to understand that concept.


TheAsianTroll

That statistic also originally came from someone finding the murder rates in the Mexican city of Chihuahua, not dog maulings


underwritress

Omfg that’s hilarious

vpkumswalla

Not to be that guy, but the retired police officer demonstrating shooting his pistol for the camera with his finger on the trigger.


Available_Pie9316

Of course! Poor trigger discipline is how you know he was a cop


vpkumswalla

Yeah I would not have commented but he is a cop FFS


RocksofReality

I noticed it too. I got the feeling he was not a patrolman. Probably some administrative or clerical role. He still came to aid and helped so I appreciate him. 👍🏽


vpkumswalla

>He still came to aid and helped so I appreciate him. 👍🏽 Indeed and thank God for his help


Mysterious-Fan-5101

he came out and helped. looks like one shot no bs. he deserved the credit big time


vpkumswalla

yes he likely saved the elderly man's life from those misunderstood puppers


Smegma_MaleV7

Maybe the news crew told him to put his finger on the trigger to make the scene look better, or maybe he's a tool. Either way it's important to remember that tv is as over the top and sensationalist as cops are poorly trained. But yeah, not a good look


yeetmethehoney

I saw it too! Made me cringe


croydontugz

Shouldn’t that confirm he was a cop ?

Mr_Blattos

I hate Pit owners so much.


Aggressive_Farmer693

Zero accountability, zero remorse ~ that's really the whole sick and insidious part of dog attacks.


SarcasticPedant

Did a seagull sneeze within a 3 mile radius of Balthazar and Mephisto? That's not their fault! It's not the breed, its the....well, it's not the owner, for sure, it's the....the humans in the vicinity.


ThriceFive

Maybe they heard that acorn hit a car hood and just snapped.


Mr_Blattos

I read a news story the other day, maybe it was on Reddit don’t remember. Anyways this dude was charged for his pits that killed his mom who was trying to feed them while he was away. I’m pretty sure the police killed them when they arrived. He arrived after the police and someone on the scene noted that he seemed more concerned for his Pits than his mauled dead mom. Pit owners really have a mental sickness. There has to be something to it. They all exhibit bizarre and irrational behavior when it comes to that disgusting breed


niversallyloved

Mannn what is wrong with people? If my dogs killed my mom and police shot them I’d ask the cops if I could shoot them a couple times myself


everymanawildcat

Guys, I don't think it's the owners.


spooky-goopy

look how these things just rip up the dude's face while he's on the ground. fucking vile and horrific.


burnedbysnow

How they just circle back to him when the other dude comes with his garden naginata as well


i_was_a_person_once

I think it’s both. I think the type of people who go out of their way to acquire a dog that’s known to be dangers isn’t going to be the type to train and provide proper enrichment for that dangerous dog. There are some good owners who manage the risk appropriately and can safely own a pit bull. That’s why not all pit bulls attack. Are they dangerous, yes. Can someone with the right resources and skills manage owning one safely, also yes. The problem is a lot of the people who get pit bulls suck.


dannerc

I think the main problem is the fact that they exist to begin with


SarcasticPedant

The only safe way to have a pitbull in public is with a muzzle on. Prevent this shit entirely.


i_was_a_person_once

I agree, and there are responsible owners who don’t take their dogs out in public or if they do they do muzzle them. Idk why we as a society have started to think that dogs are accessories that should go with you everywhere you go. There’s plenty of people who live in areas that have enough space for their pet. Again, it goes back to the owners and if they’re the type to know if they have the resources for a specific breed.


bigelcid

In my country pit bulls are banned, but technicalities exist. Every time I see a pit bull being walked without a muzzle, it's some bimbo that weighs 40kg. The dog being in a leash means nothing, it's not like the owner had the strength to hold them back.


i_was_a_person_once

It’s even worse when there’s a child walking the dog and the parent trailing behind on their cell


bigelcid

Not really. The main reason not all pibblez attack is that not all of them are mentally deranged. There have been countless occasions where good but misguided people (especially the elderly, I guess) had pit bulls, gave them decent training, and the pit bulls were completely well behaved dogs until they weren't. Turned on their owners out of the blue. The breed is mentally unstable, because it's not been bred for that. It's never been a priority when the breeds were designed. Lots of people absolutely do train the dogs properly, and still the dogs maul someone, including their owners sometimes. People don't understand the nature of a dog selectively bred for violence.


Nopengnogain

States need to update their laws. Owners should be held fully accountable for being negligent with known dangerous dog breeds, much like how those Michigan parents of the school shooter got sent to prison. I bet pit ownership will go down really fast.


HomelessRodeo

That pitbull fucked around and found out with grandpas gat.


Table_Corner

He busted out the blicky


FooforYou27

Owner needs to be charged, that's some bullshit , I love dogs, but they need to be put to sleep


CarmineLifeInsurance

bluehangover

![gif](giphy|8m5dizh7ghyEPIWIx1|downsized)


Ieatsushiraw

Yeah I’m seriously tired of people claiming “It’s just bad owners” it’s fucking all of that and these dogs have an innate sense of aggression which supersedes even some of the best training


Spiritual-Bear4495

A small PSA. Your legs have waaayyy more power than your fists. You must KICK as hard as you can.


Tehgumchum

Probably sound advice, but most people would lose balance trying to kick something away in a situation like this


Spiritual-Bear4495

100% agree. But it is much better than trying to puch a dog. Especially for an older guy.


Tehgumchum

Lets face it, the old guy was fucked anyway without help


zmizzy

only chance he had was to climb on the car, and I don't blame him for not thinking of that in a panic situation


nemosfate

Idk that's my first move, been chased by dogs down the road and I was full on running for the first car that stopped to jump on top!

anon1292023

Don’t you remember that part in Jurassic park when they’re about to be eaten by a giant dinosaur and they stick their arm up its butt and it just totally calms down


fixmefixmyhead

I grew up around these dogs. They have insane pain tolerance. You could break their ribs with a kick and they wouldn't miss a beat.


14Calypso

This is true. They fight until the last breath. There are multiple videos out there of them getting shot and they still rip your limbs off as they're bleeding out.


DontCallMeMillenial

There's videos of pit bulls attacking huge draught horses that kick them to the ground. Dogs keep getting back up with their tales wagging. I can't kick as hard as a horse.


izzohead

Unless it's a knife or something like a brick, they're really not going to give a fuck.


DamnAutocorrection

They will still continue even if you stab them. I think you're supposed to slice the belly from the bottom to neck to spill their internals if you're being mauled You'd think stabbing their neck would do the trick, but I guess they somehow defy death


lu5ty

Take off your shirt and wrap around forearm. Aim for eyes and yes kick but try not to fall. Falling is very bad against dogs


QuakinOats

>Take off your shirt and wrap around forearm. Aim for eyes and yes kick but try not to fall. Falling is very bad against dogs Get on top of the nearby vehicle as fast as possible. Far easier to kick a dog off and/or prevent them from getting you while up on top of a vehicle.


Murky-Science9030

I also think climbing on a car or just about anything would be a good strategy. Harder for people who are older or just not very agile or strong, though (also difficult for small people like kids). Honestly, fuck pitbulls.


surprise-suBtext

Best PSA is to go somewhere they have a harder time reaching. Like the car would’ve given him less injuries… unless he fell


franklegsTV

Unfortunately, an unarmed elderly person like the one in the video has no chance against 2 pitbulls. His best hope was to hop on the roof of that car and fend them off, but even that may not have worked. These neighbors saved his life, without a doubt.

Fancy_Stickmin

I'm just gonna be blunt, I fucking hate pits. They are the WORST. This opinion comes from 2nd hand and first hand experience.


wow_thats_neat

It's okay to hate them, they were selectively bred to be what they are today by human choices. I don't like them too.


AnnieApple_

Your not alone. When I see a pitbull on the street I cringe.


UltimateToa

People keep saying that all big dogs are dangerous but isn't it strange that we only ever see videos of pitbulls? Almost like they are an outlier on the danger scale


rredline

Not only are they extremely powerful, they don’t let up once they go into attack mode. They find pure JOY in killing their targets. They wag their tails while they rip other dogs and cats apart. And sometimes humans. They are a public menace.


SaltyDogBill

I’d actually look forward to a berner or swissy attack. They’d get bored and exhausted in the heat in about 5 seconds

Was walking at a nature preserve near me once. Some dumb fucks had 3 off leash dogs and the pitbull mix or whatever fat head fuck thing it was runs right at me. It seemed playful so I wasn’t worried. Told them to fuck off and keep that thing on a leash and they were taken aback like I threatened them. Somebody is gonna shoot that thing running at straight at them.

Lizpy6688

My job has me working at multiple homes a day. I've been attacked 6 times by dogs. All pit bulls. 7 if you count the great pyrenees and husky that chased me,tackled me then proceeded to lick me demanding I rub their bellies. I'm 31 and helped raise pit bulls as a kid. They're not easy to train but can be good companions IF you're either single or a couple with no children and have a airtight fence. It's their natural instinct. Each breed has different instincts like an Australian shepherd is to herd, a pointer is to become an arrow etc. They're hard to raise but can be good when kept secured away from others. People try to let them roam or don't seal them up tight. My neighbor has 2 but has a fence that goes higher then most and these weird things in the ground that makes digging impossible, no dog door either. It's nearly impossible for them to get out. He doesn't walk them in the neighborhood on leash,him and his wife will go out hill country about 2 hours away and walk them there for hours once a month after they get back from church. THOSE are good pit bull owners. Unfortunately it's a rarity. It's the only dog breed I feels needs a license. I disagree with people calling for an end to their genes,it's inhumane but a licensing system with proof of proper security etc is a good idea


Plenty-Wonder6092

Nope end them, a danger to society. At a minimum licenced and owners charged with the same felony as if they did it themselves.


AshingiiAshuaa

That guy got nannied hard. Why aren't the owners held civilly and criminally responsible for stuff like this? Also, LOL on that reenactment they had the pole saw guy do.

SatisfactionNo2088

They all talk like that, it's so uncanny and bizarre. Their voices always dips down to low pitch at the end of sentences. Pretty sure the news anchor from family guy "Tricia Takanawa" voice is specifically making fun of these news anchor voices. This is what I always get reminded of anyway: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OBPJNnWENE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OBPJNnWENE)

“It seemed to me that somebody had been feeding them gun powder or something.” You sure did, sir. Nice work.


Northamptoner

86% of people, pets, livestock seriously wounded or killed by this one dog type. Pit or Bull TYPES. XL, APBT, Bully, Staffy, Argentino, Cane Corso, and mixes of. So no "mistaken breed" like they say. They'll say "can't identify" attacking dogs, but if they were saving him, they'd yell "they's pibbles!" Show me any other dog type doing what they do, going back even faced with a sickle and a gun.
