@Mew why is this shit so common?

Blah blah blah owner this owner that blah blah

I just want to say that if your dog needs to be chained and caged in order to stop it from killing people then the problem is the dog not the owner.

Pitbulls should not be around children, period. Adults at least have a chance to defend themselves.

Pit bulls never stop their attack. You have to find any weapon possible and do as much damage as you can to the dog's body. If you have nothing then punch and kick that dog as hard as you can over and over and over. Poke out it's eyes. Destroy its ribs. Anything you can do. It won't stop so neither can you
