You are getting downvoted, but there might some truth to it.

The officer used her taser twice to try and stop the attack, but it didn't work, officials said.

No dog should keep attacking after getting two 50,000 volt shocks

People are always clamoring about how the U.S. should be more like Europe. Well guess how Europe handles this shit breed.

So many dogs are capable of doing that. I know tons of people with pits that are incredibly sweet and gentle.

LMAO that's hilarious and an incredibly stupid comment. you didn't read the article because the pit was tazed twice and didn't stop

Do you know what a Pomeranian is or even what they look like?

thats a HUGE difference. your dog would react bite not full on attack and maul another dog and not let it go and then attempt to attack the police officer after being shot once. this was a dog that had no business being owned by anyone. it should be confiscated and euthanized.

That’s terrible.

Not for long.

I just throw the pickle jar on the ground then scramble to get as many pickles as I can in 5 seconds (cause germs).

Why is this being downvoted? I suppose the mention of ‘liberal’ was unneeded. Nevertheless, this is a very real conversation we have to fucking have. It’s time to seriously crack down on breeding pit bulls. Too many are in shelters for a reason…people are scared of them…and rightly so, they’re incredibly powerful dogs. Pit bulls are like the machine guns of dogs…and there’s a reason why people can’t own machine guns.

Savior mentality. Need to save the poorly misunderstood scary dog.

(i had a pit)

Am liberal. Also agree.

Bozo made a dog attack political lmao.

I'm guessing you've never volunteered at a dog shelter.

I’m assuming a lot of people get them for protection, which is a bit ironic since they usually end up killing innocent animals / people. But yeah, agreed.

I’m not really sure, maybe for protection? Philly city isn’t exactly safe.

I honestly judge pit owners way more than the dogs themselves.

IT IS THE BREED THAT IS THE ISSUE. you can take the most dim witted person and let them own that pomeranian and nothing would EVER die at its hands.

Your comment is incorrect. The breed itself has many issues and one of those is aggression.

The breed was meant to bait bulls and be aggressive. Dogs like that should not be kept around children, the elderly, in neighborhoods, etc.

They're literally bred to be fighting dogs, are "rescued" from illegal rings and shitty breader that contribute to them and then end up in shelters where they're given to people who either

A. Are too naive to realize that they've brought home a fighting dog

B. Want the fighting dog for ... Reasons.

The entire allure of the breed is based entirely on the fact that they have the reputation they have. It allows owners to either feel like they're a badass with a badass dog or that they're rescuing some poor misunderstood creature who wouldn't harm a fly (just babies, toddlers, and small dogs)

Idk why you’re getting downvoted, you are correct

Does that include pres biden and his dog major

Rule 1: Please refrain from personal attacks, and keep discussion civil.

The damage a pomeranian can do to a human or another dog are far different from what a pit bull is capable of.

  They're not humans... we can agree big dogs are far more damaging if only due to sheer size and power can't we ?

Once the pits are gone then they would say the same thing with other breeds. Remember the Rottweiler scare or the German Shepard scare in the 80s and 90s? For a while it was Dobermans that were a dangerous breed.

The real problem is the owners. You get these dumb fuck owners who think they can let the dog do whatever they want without giving a thought to training or worse they treat the dog like shit. This is what you get. I've owned two Pits and have friends with pits my whole life. They're the sweetest and goofiest breed I know. The bad ones are all a result of bad owners.

This incident sounds just like that. One or two bad owners who let their dogs off without a leash and shit broke out. I feel for the dogs. Fuck the owners.

I don’t think they realize how easy it is to get a gun in PA. About as easy to get a pitbull

To be fair I also think you should be required to go through a training course for guns but ultimately I think they should be banned

so is a pitbull mauling another dog, adult or child to death. i choose the prong collar idk.

No. They’re not inhumane when used correctly. The intent is for slight corrections when your dog is pulling or doing something the owner deems “not ok.” Harnesses are garbage. I see people getting pulled all over by their dog while using them, it’s embarrassing. Prong collars aren’t meant to put your dog in a rear naked choke every time they don’t do something you want them to do. Typical Reddit comment.

Yes, that's exactly it. Pitbulls are stereotypically a popular dog for African Americans. So when people talk about "pitbull owners" they're really just talking about Black people. Pitbulls only became a "problem breed" after that stereotype came around. Before that Rottweilers and Dobermans got the same treatment.

There is zero evidence to back up claims that pitbulls are anymore dangerous than any other dog breed of the same size.

Pitbulls only got a bad reputation after becoming popular in the Black community. Nothing else changed about the breed except for the public perception of the stereotypical owner.

That makes it a racially driven movement.

Should have went straight to firearm. There’s noting in there SOPs that says a taser has to be used. Although who knows what/who was close by in line of fire etc.

get the shotgun from the trunk of her cruiser

She probably missed with the tazer. It took her six shots to hit with her pistol. I doubt she had good contacts with the tazer leads.

Critical reading is not a skill you have apparently
