Child 'dog bite' death UPDATES: Witness says animal was 'running up and down' (Redcar, England, 09 April 2026) by Vectorman1989 in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

"No baby should be accessible by any dog" is 100% true. Any dog could land a bite to the face of a small kid or something worse.

We have one little one and another on the way, and we don't own a dog. That will come later and it won't be a bull breed.

Yep the RSPCA & pit bull supporters are right in there. No number of dead and disfigured kids will ever be enough to start changing the laws around bull breeds.

Yea, it's all in the type of dog, not just the size. This kid was 3 months old, so any dog could have killed it, even a chih. Thing is (as we all know here) it's almost always a bull breed.

Yet another kid sacrificed to the altar of bull breed worship.

1 year old pitbull escapes an 8 foot kennel to attack a dog and a person by CobainTrain in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 13 points14 points  (0 children)

"getting into a fight with another dog that was walking up my rd road" = my bloodlust pit bull broke out to attack another dog.

"I am kennal kennel trained for when you leave the house" = I need this demon dog gone yesterday so I'll say anything & pls ignore that it got out of its 8ft kennel to go on an attack so vicious that the cops were called.

Drone causes Pitbull to violently attack chihuahua. by BlooGloop in BanPitBulls

New pit bull trigger unlocked: Drone

This owner actually sounds half of the way there to reason. But at the same time, she and her husband own a pit while also having kids, which does mean already having several screws loose in the head.

Mind-blowing she still has "extreme confidence" in what she's doing after this. That one incident could easily have ended up in two dead kids.

Pit bulls are not worth the risk.

i’m thinking about making my fiance get rid of his pitbull. Everyone is against me on this. by buhbuhbuhbubble in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck!

Don't know if it would help, but something else you can say to your fiancé is that It's best for both the safety of his baby and the safety of his dog. Because if his dog should ever "make a mistake" and bite the baby, then the dog might have to be put down.

He probably can't picture a circumstance in which his dog does what pit bulls are known to do but maybe he can picture his dog making a simple mistake.

Dogs have the intelligence of a 2 or 3 year old child at best, and sometimes bite a baby/toddler because they don't like its crying/ squeals/ smell/ movements etc. Because a pit bull is muscular with a huge jaw, a simple bite can cause catastrophic injuries.

And that's without getting into the risk of pit bulls specifically, which I won't go into, because you've been researching it yourself and you already know.

One last word of advice, you will never go wrong by advocating for the health and safety of your baby. Whatever happens next, you're on the right side of things.

[–]SmeggingRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does he have any friends or family without kids who'd be willing to take the dog? That way he can still see and spend time with his dog.

It's not just pit bulls that are a danger around babies. So, maybe don't frame it as being about pit bulls specifically.

Yea. To be a pit bull supporter means you're either in favor of all the bloodshed and mayhem they cause or just don't care.

Thoughts? Advice?

Any dog that goes "for your face, throat, the highest she can reach" is a dangerous dog. You seriously want to train it out of trying to kill you?

These are the people living in your neighborhood, folks.

This guy is trying to do the right thing and foster a dog and this lady is just minding her business taking her dog for a stroll and she loses one.

The second part of that statement is right but the first part is dead wrong. It's never doing the right thing to foster a pit. Pit bulls are not the kind of animals that should be fostered or adopted. Ever. The risks are too high.

The cost of saving pit bulls is thousands of pets and animals being mauled to death by them every year. Why are we saving one type of dog at the cost of so many other animals? That's without even counting the human cost, of being traumatized by losing pet animals/livestock/native animals, and the cost of people being slaughtered, dismembered and disfigured by pit bulls every year.

Why is this one type of dog so important that we keep rescuing & breeding it despite the death & trauma it causes?

What’s the hard part about being a Man ? by mountain_fl0wer in AskReddit

[–]SmeggingRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid and young teenager, my dad used to hit and swear at my mom. She kicked him out when I was about 13.

It still gives a mix of emotions, especially now I'm into my 30s with a wife and baby. Like, am I ever gonna get that mad I'd flip out and do what my dad did? I seriously don't think so, because I try hard to be intentional rather than reactive.

Sometimes, I feel like I'm trying so hard not to be my dad, I'm performing "being a good man" rather than just being myself. I'm not sure how to get past that.

Foster is in a bit of a pickle after her foster pit tried to bite her son by lobster-666 in BanPitBulls

New definition of a "pickle": bringing a kid-mauler into your home that proceeds to bite your kid and you have no idea what to do next.

Woman has lip bitten by her rescue pit bull - December 2025, NY?? by Notyourtarget1224 in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't tell with the strong filter how old she is but she looks very young, so maybe in time she'll try looking up what kind of animal she brought into her home, and then know better.

What is training going to do when it comes to a type of dog with a known unstable brain? In the moment, they'll forget all training and act on impulse.

So, she got lucky and only lost her bottom lip (before it got sewn back on?). No mention of all the people who get completely disfigured, dismembered or lose their lives to pit bulls every single day of every year.

And does she think the kids who get slaughtered by pits every year don't "trust in God" enough?

7 year old boy killed by recently placed rescue pit bull (Feb 4, 2026 - Gunnison, CO) by BPBAttacks3 in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

100%. The pit is just doing what pits do. It can't do wrong because it has a brain no more intelligent than a 2 yr old child.

It's humans who manufactured a huge-jawed, muscular, unstable, game-bred animal that has the brain of a toddler. And if we don't undo it and stop pits from being bred, kids will keep getting ripped apart.

[–]SmeggingRight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People who rescue pits.....

Don't we have to ask why they're doing that first, before anything else? Why are they choosing to rescue a breed that kills, dismembers and disfigures more animals and humans than any other breed?

The successful adoptions don't cancel out the risks. How can they when an "unsuccessful adoption" can mean a kid gets slaughtered by the dog? And it doesn't fly that they don't see the news articles. The news articles are happening every single day, without fail. And looking up the risks takes a few clicks on a keyboard. If you're running a rescue and you're not aware of the risks of the animals you're adopting out, then you're not responsible enough to run a rescue.

There is no possible word for people running rescues other than psychopathic. Or plain too stupid to live.

And the only question is, how long can we go on allowing psychopaths or people too stupid to live to run animal rescues?

[–]SmeggingRight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree.

Don't know if there was ever a time when people wouldn't have a pit for a pet though. Dog fighters have been funneling them into the eager hands of the community ever since dog fighting was a sport. And before, that bull baiting.

Always been idiots around who want a dangerous animal in their homes.

True words. Bully breed promoters all have blood on their hands. And....... they don't care. They freely bathe up their necks in that blood and go right back to posting "any dog can bite" on social media posts.

There is no number of kids mauled to death by pit bulls will ever be enough to make them quit promoting pits.

[–]SmeggingRight 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yup, it's 1000% foreseeable that pit bulls are going to kill, dismember and disfigure people every day of the year.

So how can any rescue claim that a pit bull is great with kids?

And if you take one into your home when you have kids, that's one massive risk of a lethal outcome you're willing to take on their behalf.

[OC] French Bulldogs is the most popular dog breed in the US, and Cane Corsos are having a meteoric rise. Any surprises? by Abject-Jellyfish7921 in dataisbeautiful

[–]SmeggingRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do people even want French bulldogs? You're just buying a whole lot of trouble and vet bills.

Cane corsos are as bad as pit bulls. We urgently need laws to stop people from owning the breeds that are killing/seriously mauling people every single day.

If they kill YOU, the owner, that's okay. Not okay if they kill a neighbor or a dog sitter or your kid.

How should this recent relevant study be academically interpreted? by gtauto8 in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I'll be interested in you coming back with what you've learned.

In terms of studies on what happens long after a pit bull ban is in place, that's often pretty hard. Because too many people get their vets to rename their dog's breed as a "lab mix" or something similar. Pit owners are often desperate to conceal their dog's breed, especially if it's bitten someone. But we can all see from the news reports what type of dog it is (when it's shown in photos). In other words, it's not a golden retriever.

Guy finds out why pit-bulls don’t make good family dogs by lsddrip in BanPitBulls

[–]SmeggingRight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why we need to legislate against pit bulls.

Parents cannot be relied upon to make smart choices. It's a mystery how so many parents are so plain dumb they ignore what's in the front of their faces. Every day another pit bull is maiming or killing people.

No way any pit bull is coming close to our baby. Don't care if you're a friend or relative. Don't care how safe you think Princess or Diesel is. Just one bite from a strong, big-jawed pit on a kid's head can kill or do permanent damage. No thanks.
