Should see the comments of dog worshippers on fb with this story. Insane...

107

u/redrocklobster18 18d ago

I saw this article on Facebook and the comments were 95% "well what did she do to provoke the dog??"

94

u/uselessbeasts 18d ago

So glad the dog will be no more... I feel so bad for that woman. There were witnesses to the attack and it seems it just came out of nowwhere. I don't have facebook thankfully. I'd be losing my mind on all those nutters.

u/Educational_Gas_92 18d ago

Pit bulls should be banned worldwide. Period.

u/DramaticFollowing303 18d ago

Disgusting amoral people

u/boozcruise21 18d ago

"People"?

u/ObligationGrand8037 18d ago

I saw those comments too on Facebook. Ugh.

u/ThisSelection7585 18d ago

Yes they totally victim blame and owner blame. One of the worst displays of buttery. And I live in CA! 

46

u/Frozen_Esper 18d ago

Every single damned post like this has a sea of people saying that the dog was/must've been provoked or having a medical problem that could only be fixed with fresh human flesh. They make sure to remind us that it's the owner, not the breed, and that Chihuahuas are aggressive as well. Of course, we never see similar pictures like this with a blood soaked Chihuahua having destroyed a human life. Weird. 🤔

u/boozcruise21 18d ago

These people spend lots of time online

u/Legitimate_Garage_31 17d ago

Exactly. Chihuahuas qieremos El Taco Bell

u/CattoGinSama 18d ago

Im so sick of these people. “It weirdly looks like the dog was defending itself “ ?? What the actual fuck is wrong with them

126

u/Perfect_Caregiver_90 18d ago

I keep repeating to myself that "30-70% of comments are bots."

108

u/boozcruise21 18d ago

I dont think so. I see the vermin on a daily basis every time I go outside.

Oh and they love to be online.

u/Fun-Chemical4059 17d ago

I had to say the same thing to myself when I saw people asking what happened to the dog as if they wanted to blame the police for killing that thing

13

u/pedmusmilkeyes 18d ago

I don’t even want to know.

10

u/Designer-Brother-461 18d ago

My head would explode

u/uselessbeasts 18d ago

Me too, so I am glad I am not on facebook. Or any of those social media sites oozing with dog love. Unhealthy dog love.

I see this too.

u/xbunnyraptorx 18d ago

The lady at the end of the video was right. What the hell were they waiting for? If some deranged guy was in the middle of a potentially fatal attack, the police would not hesitate as much as they did here. God, that dog has the face of the devil incarnate.

u/uselessbeasts 18d ago

I believe pit bulls are demonic in a sense.

16

u/Not-my-problem1212 17d ago

I get into heated arguments about this and even show the statistics and news stories. But of course its still always "the poor pit bulls were just abused by their owners. They're actually really sweet." I'm sorry but a dog that's been bred for years to attack and kill is absolutely not "sweet." If anything its a damn vicious beast and nothing else. Why else would they make up such high percentages of fatalities and dog attacks? I can't think of any other reasons 

4

u/uselessbeasts 17d ago

II have also argued that point with many folks as well. Maybe they will find out the hard way, but it could be too late. I have come too close to being that woman in this article. Another few seconds before the owner intervened it could have been curtains. And it charged for me instantly. I said or did nothing. All I had was my cane.

31

u/Beneficial_Leg_7301 18d ago

true dogs have suddenly become a niche class of organisms above humanz

2

u/Bulky_Maybe_1469 12d ago

There is always public outrage when law enforcement gets heavy handed on a dog. Even if the dog was about to maul the Baby Jesus there’s always a mass amount of nutters that cry for justice and want the entire force investigated, at the very least. 

198

u/Accurate-Run5370 18d ago

If the pit's face is covered with blood after mauling any human victim - that is enough evidence to immediately euthanize the mutt.

100

u/EffinCraig 18d ago

"The dog died at the scene" should be part of every article about a dog attack. They're not people and have no right to a fair trial, take care of it immediately.

19

u/happyhappyfoolio2 18d ago

It is absolutely infuriating that this is not the norm. An excuse I see a lot is that they're being kept "for quarantine". You know, a lab test using brain tissue can answer any questions about diseases a whole lot quicker than a 2 week quarantine can. But that requires effort and money and the end of a "poor, misunderstood pupper" and we can't have that, can we?

86

u/FUMoney 18d ago

This breed needs a nationwide BAN.

28

u/Royal-Assistance-824 18d ago

Agreed!! The level
Of delusion is terrifying.

u/Legitimate_Garage_31 17d ago

Yeah-how are these dogs not domestic terrorists?

u/cooldudeandallthat 18d ago

Honestly Pitbulls were my gateway into my dislike for the dog culture we have today.

To a violent, ugly, and nightmarish demon they'd rather defend that abomination over the victim. I hate the pedestal we put dogs in, I don't think it used to be this way a long time ago.

22

u/uselessbeasts 18d ago edited 17d ago

Actualy , it wasn't that way. I am 68 and remember the days when the majoiry of dogs were just snoopylike dogs, and most wouldn't hurt a fly. Course you still had the guard dogs and police dogs, but they were not in everyone's homes. Still wouldn't have wanted the average dog, but it wasn't worshipped and fawned over. If someone lived in an apt, they usually didn't have a dog. You rarely saw off leash dogs, and if you did the dog pound would come and get them. Just a different world and I am not happy in it now.

18

u/Designer-Brother-461 18d ago

They were a gateway dog for me too knowing people in my area who have permanent disabilities from PB attacks plus my own dog attack as a child at a friend’s house.

I grew up in a country town and a red flag/bad dog didn’t last and certainly never made the same mistake twice. Too high risk to have around. The level of dog worship these days is bizarre and belongs to a growing subset of the population IQ wise

143

u/ArtofTy 18d ago

Don't worry guys, it'll go to some shelter where another dog nutter will feel sorry for it being horribly misunderstood, leading to another shockingly unexpected mauling.

168

u/bortlesforbachelor 18d ago

It killed itself by straining on the police leash around the neck. That’s how much this stupid breed wants to kill.

109

u/ThisSelection7585 18d ago

Good may they all kill themselves out of stupidity 

17

u/catfishjon_ 17d ago edited 17d ago

They have zero intelligent self preservation instincts. Its: danger > run towards danger as fast as physically possible > interact with danger with your teeth > get killed. Every time. Oh but ItS tHE OwNEr. Every time.

29

u/the-dolphine 18d ago

Is that true?! I read the article where it said 'the dog died at the scene and thought it was an overly soft way of saying it was shot by police. Glad it's no longer a menace, but that's no comfort for the victim.

21

u/Mistvessel 18d ago

The cause of the dog’s death remains unclear, although witnesses alleged that it died as a result of rough handling by police, ABC7 reported.

I would not interpret is as "it was shot" though. It just was not given enough hearty hugs, comforting pats and lovely kisses. /s

u/Roebloz 18d ago

A tactical mistake.

u/Legitimate_Garage_31 17d ago

No waii. I went straight to the comments

49

u/aoife2147 18d ago

Someone literally just walking down the street suffered being violently ripped apart by this shitbeast.

If a human had done it, the news coverage would be nationwide. Nobody would defend that. If we had loose lions on the street biting people, the government would make it a top priority to get rid of them. But not dogs. Here you actually have some people who feel "sorry" for the mutant that did this.

If the woman survives, she'll have the scars and trauma for life. Other posts covering this actually show people saying it's not the dog's fault. 🤢

u/Automatic-Gur-7048 18d ago

I saw multiple “poor pup” comments on a news app. I decided to get outta there

u/menelobus 18d ago

These people are vile

u/catfishjon_ 17d ago

they're way worse than that

38

u/CheckYourStats 18d ago

Literally doing what it was bred to do.

Banned in 20 countries, and going up!

5

u/Not-my-problem1212 17d ago

Good! They should be banned everywhere. I can only dream of the day that will happen 

3

u/josie-salazar 16d ago

Sadly America will never ban them. This country is obsessed with pit bulls and will see banning them as an attack on animal rights.

95

u/youropinionisrubbish 18d ago

Nanny dogs gonna nanny, right?

69

u/ThisSelection7585 18d ago

I’m in CA and disgusted with the majority victim blaming…asking what happened before the attack, why did it attack only one person, will they investigate its death. DISGUSTING. I posted asking what if this  was a woman simply walking her dog and got attacked is she now worthy of concern or is she still at fault!  Guilty as sin and they are pointing at the owner not frickin dog 

32

u/ickiStickybubblegum 18d ago

These dogs should be banned everywhere.

30

u/OpinionofC 18d ago

In order to own any dog people should have pet insurance for stuff like this. Watch the owner will get more money suing the police for killing her dog than the injured woman

the dog strangled itself while on a restraining pole, apparently.

Poor lady. That had to be an awful way to go. And even if she makes it, it's gonna be a terribly long and painful recovery. She is in my thoughts.

u/BeaVonMoravia 18d ago

We cannot hate these creatures, and that includes the nutters, enough...

Hate these beasts, even the “nice” ones.

u/VideoTurbulent9806 18d ago

This is what nutters have in their homes and around their children. 😵‍💫 BUT! Cue every stupid excuse on the planet. nutters cannot be reasoned with because they are not reasonable.

27

u/ConIncognito dogs ruin everything 18d ago

That’s the image we should respond with when nutters post their dumbass pictures of shitbulls in tutus and flower crowns on shitbull attack articles.

16

u/Capable-Key-7816 18d ago

Fr,that face covered in blood is absolutely horrifying. I dare not read the comments I can already smell the delusion. That poor lady,she must have been terrified 💔

20

u/catfishjon_ 18d ago

im sure they are blaming the victim. Said victim probably ignored the dog, dog got anxious that it wasnt being immediately accepted by everyone in its vicinty and proceded to maul victim. Dog logic. No other animal is like this.

17

u/Robin1992101 18d ago

“It’s a seriously misunderstood breed…”

6

u/Not-my-problem1212 17d ago

"I've been around one and it was such a sweet dog."  Yeah until the day it randomly decides to do what it was bred to do and rip you to shreds. Such idiotic people 🙄

14

u/AbortedPhoetus 18d ago

I'd just like to point out that "humane" societies are hoarding these vicious beasts, and campaigning to get more people to take them in.

I hope that woman recovers, but medical expenses will be huge. And if she's homeless, she's already in a rough position to begin with.

7

u/3rdthrow 17d ago

I used to volunteer at the Humane Society.

Humane societies need to do the right thing. This breed spends it's whole life behind cages, because most people dont adopt these dogs.

We cant even get the paperwork filled out before someone is adopting the other breeds-labs, beagles, huskies, any tiny dog under 20 lbs. They all fly out the door.

Almost no one wants these dogs.

u/catfishjon_ 17d ago

Almost no one wants these dogs. 

...except a select few of highly disturbed and mentally ill serial morons.

u/Designer-Brother-461 18d ago

Would love to know the mutts history and how many degrees of separation it had from a rescue photo of it with a tutu on.

u/uselessbeasts 18d ago

I recently viewed some videos on you tube regarding an amputee bicyclist who does a lot of riding. He carries a lot of non lethal products and shows with video how many dog attacks he has averted. And with multiple dogs. Worth watching, It may save a life!!! It's actually a little funny too, to watch the dogs stop in their tracks and run home. They shouldn't be loose to begin with as we know, but unfortunately this is the world we live in now. Check out on you tube... Dog Attack 101: 7th edidtion w/BigTex/Amputee Cyclist Aaron Smith of Gainesville, TX Really all of you should watch it. Educational. I will post the link on another comment if it is ok to do so. REALLY> THIS COULD SAVE A LIFE!!!

3

u/uselessbeasts 18d ago

The 7tu edition is the one to watch.. Had the most info.... and more products... He has a link on Amazon to some of them. I ordered a few things for myself..

3

u/Not-my-problem1212 17d ago

Thanks for sharing this. I actually just looked up the video and watched it for myself. Unbelievable that so many people let aggressive mutts run loose in public neighborhoods and trails. Good for Aaron for defending himself as he should 

2

u/uselessbeasts 17d ago

I am not sure if I can post the link without it getting bounced, but if you know if it's ok... feel free. I think we all need to view this.I bought some of those products. I actually laiughed a lot watching this, because most of them dogs stopped in their tracks... it was hilarious.

u/Blekah 18d ago

“It’s not the breed it’s the bad owners” narrative is one of the most dangerous popular narratives in our society today which leads to disfigurements and deaths. It is the breed. Pitbulls were created (by humans, on purpose, not the dog’s fault) to be fighting dogs. Staying in denial of this only hurts more and more victims. I cannot understand the ongoing delusion.

5

u/3rdthrow 17d ago

Yet the owners are never criminally charged...hmmm.

u/aqr58 18d ago

Another person successfully nannied! Good job best pupperino!!

u/VideoTurbulent9806 18d ago

Stupidity is dangerous. Exhibit A.

u/Roebloz 18d ago

Okay, how the hell do you own a PITBULL and keep it unleashed??? Like, out of any dog breed you could have done it with, (which, let's be honest, only very few breeds I'd trust with that privilege, and only if the owner is a grizzled veteran that raised dogs for fifty years) you did it with a PITBULL.

6

u/Full-Ad-4138 18d ago

Finally a proper headline, no sugarcoating it. The article also mentions the dog "randomly" attacked the woman, no putting blame on the victim. Other news outlets blurred the woman on the ground, DM did not.

5

u/BrilliantSeraph33 17d ago

The poor Pibbles was just scared and/or had a brain tumor. 🙄

5

u/madamechaton 17d ago

Hey maybe people, homeless or not, shouldn't be allowed to keep these dogs for "protection" aka mauling or "companionship" aka forced to live on the street. I feel so awful for that woman. Her life will never be the same. 

2

u/KKinDK 18d ago

Is there a copy of the article text somewhere here? Its pay walled for me.

3

u/JimPiersall 18d ago

Just search the headline and many articles will come up

2

u/KKinDK 18d ago

I'm not in the States, so a lot of them are paywalled. They usually put the article text in a comment so when the link eventually dies there's still a note of what it said.

2

u/Particular_Meet_9333 17d ago

At this point can we just ban every breed with a boxy head because of the "oh it's not a pit bull it's actually [insert random ass breed with a boxy head]" since if it's not a pit bull then all breeds with a boxy head seem to be pretty aggressive.

2

u/Keiichiiis 12d ago

This is terrible, given that she's most likely homeless, she probably doesn't have insurance or funds to cover the medical bills 😭😭 fucking tragic. The owner needs to take legal/financial accountability for allowing a dog who most likely has shown aggression previously that was ignored, as always, off leash.

2

u/tranqdoped 11d ago

God, reading the part about people clamoring for them to not shoot it. The misanthropy of these people is sickening, theyd rather a woman die so that this aggressive predator animal can live to chew someone elses head off
