They do not feel the same. They love authority without any consent. They love abusing raw power to ruin anyone’s life that they don’t like the sound or look of.

All I want is to have the freedom to not be controlled by evil psychopaths. I’m hopeful that others come around to that view. I want to see a future that looks positive instead of pointless.

My guess is that should the process to secede take hold in a number of conservative states, the left will be the loudest, angriest voice against secession since they’ll lose their hostages and have to live under their own BS with no one to blame but themselves.

I’d give them 20yrs at best before their entire economy and government completely crumble, if they were on their own.

Imagine what a wonderful world it would be without the left. I’d willingly give away both coasts (and I’ve lived on both) and any number of other states to have autonomy from their destructive insanity. Really, no price would be too high to pay for America to split up, divorce, and end this culture war.

I agree 100%. Your viewpoint is consistent with that of many, many conservatives and moderates.

Well, then there’s hope!
Thanks.

In a bubble, the world is operating in a way we recognize, but when you find yourself in front of ugliness, it drives home the reality that people have lost their minds. There is so much dysfunction permeating society. If I had to wager a guess, people would relegate themselves to engaging in civil war before giving up anything to this government.

It's not just the USA, I believe that most western democracies are struggling with division, anger and hate. It varies from country to country but we are seeing very similar things north of the border with respect to gender reassignment in the very young, drag shows and very powerful political division that deteriorates into outright hate, there is no trust in government nor the media. Two provinces are talking about separating from Canada. My hope is things can return to some state of balance sooner rather than later because this is a very dangerous path we are on.

To quote Rodney King, "why can't we all just get along"?

Careful here, don't want this thread to devolve into a political debate that get's the thread taken down.

Should've tasered the dogs and shot the owner.

Another recent incident and these were not dangerous dogs.

What do you mean by dangerous dogs? I'm assuming you mean dangerous breed?

Dangerous breeds are self explanatory, your post referring to my input of a tragic incident involved non-dangerous breeds.

And what is a dangerous breed?

I'm not sure what you're thoughts are behind dog breeds, but I'll say this;

There are no dangerous breeds, only irresponsible owners and/or unfortunate situations. I've been attacked, snarled at, chased by, and bitten by more small breed dogs and "family" breeds than any other. None of which are considered dangerous breeds by todays society, yet every "dangerous" breed I've encountered has been just fine. Difference is, small breed dogs usually don't do enough damage for people to report and everyone thinks it's "cute" they act bigger than they are, and large family breed dogs don't get reported because everyone sees it as an honest and innocent mistake, but if it's a breed of dog that the media tells us we should fear because they look mean then it becomes a big deal and all dogs in that breed get a bad rep (kind of like something else the media tells us to fear). Unfortunately the less respectable communities tend to gravitate towards those mean looking breeds and train them accordingly, contributing to the media and society's unfavorable and skewed perception of them.

Animals get stressed just like humans, they react to situations, to stress, to fear, just like any living creature. And sometimes, just like humans, they lose their senses and do bad things. Has nothing to do with breed.

My definition of a dangerous breed is one capable of doing serious damage if it decides to attack. For example while Chihuahuas are prone to biting I've never heard of a fatal attack from one. While pit bulls and rottweilers are quite capable of killing a human and usually when I read a story of a human fatality those breeds pop to the top.

So breeds with a track record of killing people fall into the "dangerous breed class" for me.

Yes, animals in this class can be good pets and friendly. Problem is when you mix dangerous dog breeds with stupid or evil owners.

Don’t be ridiculous.
A Shiba Inu is not the same as a pitbull.

Some breeds are inherently dangerous and the vast majority of humanoids cannot hope to possibly ever appropriately train them to be safe in society, as opposed to a shih tzu which regardless of how shitty an owner you are, isn’t going to kill anyone ever unless they are 6” tall and weight 3lbs.

Your entire assertion is flat out wrong, and demonstrably false.

According to a web search, there are actually two recorded fatalities from chihuahua attacks. Makes me wonder if the victims died from laughing at the dogs for being so brazen?????

Speaking of dangerous breeds and LEO, a deputy in Indiana was killed by a dog that wasn't hers in her own home on Tuesday evening. A responding Indianapolis PD officer dispatched the dog, after it charged at them.

In a statement, Indianapolis Animal Care Services said workers impounded the deceased dog, three additional dogs and a cat from the home. The department said they cannot confirm the breeds without a DNA test, but said all the dogs appeared to be a "pitbull-type."

I really don't like dealing with the dangerous breeds, especially around here. I would readily shoot one before I allowed it to attack me.

seen a vid of a pit maul a grown man to death. seems like its game over once it latches onto you. btw what happens when a k9 encounters an aggressive dog?

It is very difficult to neutralize a pit bull that has latched onto you. Our K9’s wouldn’t be released with an aggressive dog around. We clear the area of all animals, civilians, officers, etc. before a K9 is cut loose. It will bite anybody outside of the green zone (…aka…outside of the main group).

This is why I never walk our small dog in parks or if I see a big dog approaching on a lead as it should be then I carry him. We don't have the luxury of carrying pistols over here so a concealed truncheon or small aerosol hair spray used as a last resort could well save a pooch should the unthinkable start to unfold.
