There was another incident where a GSD routinely left its owners premises on a regular basis and one time severely mauled a young by, causing a serious fracture to the child's cranium. Why no GSD & pot hounds on the list?
It's a game of numbers. The moment another breed not on the schedule becomes popular the maulings will start all over again with that breed. It's been proven by history. Pits & other molossers outnumber most other breeds in T&T, so statistically there is a greater chance of pits being involved in attacks, fatal or not. Add to that poor breeding practices by breeders, unstable breeding stock, immature & negligent owners acquiring dogs for the wrong reason, improperly trained dogs (dogs being given improper agitation & taught to bite anything & anyone indiscriminately without proper foundation work or proofing afterwards). After you add those aspects to the mix the odds of fatal incidents increase dramatically. Couple that with media sensationalism and that fuels public misinterpretation or negative perception. Pothounds bite ppl daily causing numerous ppl to visit the hospitals & health centers & occasionally the pathologist, yet those incidents never make the front page, guess why?
As an example, I'll use the American Bully. Tho the breed may appear intimidating, & that was the look the original breeders were going for btw, the original temperament they were bred for was that of a companion animal with no aggression. In simpler terms, they wanted to develop a mean-looking docile behaving dog.
I have an American Bully at home. He has absolutely no aggression at all, to the point where my wifes kitten cuts his arse regularly & thoroughly, without him making so much as a growl. He avoids the kitten as much as possible, & was never taught to do so, it's his natural instinct. Does that sound like a blood-thirtsy killer to you?
The problem is once this kinda BSL takes hold, by the time they're done adding breeds to their schedule all you will be allowed to own are toy breeds, & even there'll be restrictions, registrations & all kinds of other crap as a deterrent. I can say i appreciated certain aspects of the proposed law, but there are too many parts of it (dare I say the bulk of it) that were not thought out thoroughly.DrunkenMaster16 wrote:You should take your own advice...

Hoss cussin everybody ain't gonna help anybody. So why bother?
88sins wrote:RBF I see your point, but lets be honest here. There are a lot of hard working law abiding citizens within the low-middle income bracket that keep dogs as a means of property protection & chose this breed due to its relatively low maintenance costs.
There's nothing more frustrating than locking up your house & leaving to go to a hard day's work for not a lot of money, knowing full well there's a high probability that by the time you get home most of your possessions won't be there. And this kind of thing happens really often, one could say daily. When faced with the added cost of property insurance to keep the animal that protects them, the may not be able to afford that additional expense. So they'll have to either start over with a new breed (hoping they don't get robbed before the puppy develops enough to be a deterrent), remain defenseless, or use other not-so-lawful but cheaper methods of protecting their property & loved ones.
All I & others are saying is this bill is an attempt to discourage persons from the dangerous practice of keeping dogs they cannot control, & personally commend that. But it will have the side effect of leaving a lot of people exposed to harm from the criminal element, with little to almost zero legal alternative to protecting their homes & families.
But anyway, let's see what happens in the coming months-years

This is very reasonable to ask of any owner of any animal, but there will always be the chance of the occasional canine escape. Whether by owner negligence(leaving the gate open/unlocked), or by the resourcefulness of the dog. I've had dogs that climb trees to get at animals/intruders. If that tree was close to a fence, that'd be the dog's means of escaping its confines. Some dogs are determined diggers, while others can jump clear over a 6' fence if they have enough of a run. I'm not making excuses, just pointing out things that can & do occur. In life, there are no 100% ironclad guarantees in anything.RIPEBREDFRUIT wrote:And owners MUST agree that should their dog get loose and kill anyone OUTSIDE of their compound that they are 100% liable to stand a MURDER Charge(the owner).
Killing a man because of the actions of a dog, to me, makes no sense. A manslaughter charge, coupled with the penalty of compensating the victims family for pain & suffering & loss of earnings would be more appropriate. If a dog is resourceful & escapes his confines despite his owners best/numerous efforts & mortally wounds someone, the dog's owner must be put to death? Leaving possible wife, husband, children, siblings, parents & relatives to suffer? From a DOG'S actions? Not reasonable, imho, & far more costly to the state as well. There are better methods than that

LOL- I didn't say put the owner to death, I said the owner should stand trial for MURDER , yes animals that are strong willed will always try to find a way to escape, but in that process if they kill someone then I see no reason why the owner should NOT be charged and JAILED.

my advice, don't waste your time trying to study about what breed. Passing a law is easy, enforcing it when the majority of the population is against it is a whole other story
