Another Day, Another Couple of Horrifying Pit Bull Stories

posted by on September 21 at 8:44 AM

KIRO 7 reports on the pit bull that charged into a home near Ethel, Washington, where it attacked a teenage girl and slaughtered a shih tzu.

ABC reports on the Georgia man accused of capturing neighborhood cats and feeding them—live—to his pit bulls.

(To be fair, the second story is about a horrifying pit-bull owner, but so are all horrifying pit-bull stories, in a way.)

My cat broke into the neighbors house and killed their shih tzu and I rewarded my cat for being a good little kitty! Really, I almost support the Pit Bull on that first one. I hate shih tzu's a lot.

The British Government has learned that pit bulls recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.

I don't give a fuck about Shit Zoos or Pit Bulls are Fart Knockers or any other breed of dog- I'm deathly allergic to all- but... "slaughtered"? You guys are journalists, right? You understand that anthropromorphizing animal subjects is a 10th grade english class mistake, right?

Why am I in a bad mood on a Friday?

stop abusing the pit-bull name - all your post does is create even more fear for a breed that, when treated with love and affection is sweeter and more attentive than just about any other animal. i know that pit-bulls have attacked people but remember 15 years ago when we were all supposed to be scared of dobermans? no one was even TRYING to step onto Robin Master's estate. i remember being a kid and getting freaked out at the mere site of one of those BEASTS. Slog entries like this are turning me into a Higgins for the motherfuckin 21st Century. thanks alot jerkface.

"OR Fart Knockers..." Why can't I write, either?

Well they could try the Republican-Bob Allen Method(TM) to ward off Fox's new hit series When Pit Bulls Attack:

Throw themselves down on their knees and offer the Pit Bull $20 bucks to suck its dick.

That retarded white trash in Georgia is a good reason why cat owners should keep their pets indoors. May he rot in jail.

I'd like to see the man in the second story injured and fed to his pit bulls.

Were you excited to hear the pitbull reference in the Chris Rock clip posted above? I was.

Boil the owner alive and feed him to his pitbulls.

All horrifying pit-bull stories are absolutely (not merely "in a way") about horrifying pit-bull owners.

The Stranger's been picking on pit bulls for awhile now. It's fun being alarmist, but if this is such a newsworthy topic, how about treating it to some investigative journalism? You know.

I think we should wait to pass judgment until a pit bull shoots someone.
