There’s no amendment for dog breeds. So I’ll revise my stance to being that violent dog breeds need to be heavily regulated. It should be way more difficult to own a violent breed than to own any sort of 2A covered weapon.
Training, licensing, classes, tax stamps, you name it.
I’m not against highly trained, competent, smart guard dogs. There is a place for them.
So because you don't like certain breeds, you want the State to enforce your views and were just virtue signaling the bitcoin standard rhetoric?
Suprising viewpoint from this otherwise based account. Were you attacked by a dog in your youth? Why the vitriol?
I was actually mauled by a dog when I was 4. While I do think people that own pitbulls are basically retarded, I don't believe the feds can regulate it. I think the states could, but would prefer it not be regulated. However, I will and have shoot a fucking dog who attacks anyone I care about or my livestock or my own LGD. "Accidents" should be prosecuted as assault with a deadly weapon.
Your last sentence, exactly
1. Glad you're OK, even if there seems to be emotional scarring. Trauma be like that.
2. I am retarded.
3. Any jurisdiction can regulate what they want, enforcement is another story.
4. I welcome shooting of any animal that is attacking people or livestock.
5. My younger pit sunk teeth into the leg of someone that rode up on him on a dirt bike. No shaking or tearing, simple chomp and release. So the State should lock me in a cage for years. Sounds rational.
I had a dog 9yrs ago(let my ex keep her)
We got her from the pound for donating a bag of dog food.
Faith. She was a Pit/rot mix. I still have her adoption papers. She was 7mo old.
The first time she was brought back by someone to the shelter was for nipping at kids hands.
The 2nd time someone brought her back was for attacking other animals.
The 3rd time someone brought her back, was for chewing up a whole queen sized mattress to bits.
The 4th time she was sent back by someone was again, for biting at hands.
The shelter looked at me like I was crazy for still wanting this dog thats on the "kill list" and employees where even saying that I would be bringing her back within 2 weeks like everyone else has...
They where wrong. Way wrong...
I spent the 1st month just getting to know her.
I spent the next month on leash going around the perimeter of the yard. She chewed up my mattress, and started biting at my hands. Within the same few hours. I took her to the bed and showed her my bleeding hand she bit.
I stopped. Looked her in the eyes, and gave her a right hook knuckle sandwich to the snout and stood over her growling, as she snarlled up growling at me...This was to let her know she's not the dominant one here. I'm the bigger dog and I will fuck you up of I have to...
Her attitude did a 180 instantly and I kept up every month teaching her.
By month 6 she was running around unleashed with the 3 other dogs, playing with the cats inside, and running around with my son Elijah when he was 4.
By 1 year, you didn't want to be a stranger on the property....
Today, you still don't want to be a stranger on the property...
You see, I believe in putting down unfixable dogs too. But 99.9% of the time, it's the owners fault as to why the dog even becomes unfixable, NOT THE DOGS FAULT itself.
