did an hour ago but you have either not read the post or have not replied to it  It is at the top of page 5 and said this.

Nah you didn't answer my question. Where in your post does it say why Pit Bulls are so popular?

What kind of a nut would want a KING COBRA as a pet?

Many.

Pet Laws. Most states don't allow king cobras as pets. Even in those that do, city and county statutes often prohibit venomous snakes. In some states, such as Florida, you may legally own a king cobra if you have an annual permit.

If you can not see the difference between people killing each other and dogs killing people then i feel sorry for you.

We are not in Kansas ,we are in Thailand.

How am i brainwashed?

Where would you send a dog in Thailand for rehabilitation?

Why don't you take in these 3 sweet little dogs?

The owner is willing to give them away and you would do such a good thing.

Oh,yes, do not forget to make your will if you do.

 

I didn't say there wasn't a difference in scale, but the morality of killing a living entity is the same, particularly when one is supposed to have control over its decisions and the other obviously isn't. If you can't understand that then it's me who feels sorry for you.

Kusol, 67, recounted how the dogs had viciously attacked Pornchai rupturing arteries in his arms and legs. He was angry but their neighbor, the owner, was a good man who would take care of the funeral cost.

A wonderful man ????????????

Just kill the beast !!!!!! ????????

It's not just Pit Bulls.

It is just Pit Bulls (or other dangerous dog breeds) that have the aggression and the physiology that leads to these things though.

 What!!!!

So the villagers said it was normal for this guy to scream ( mental health issues) so let’s not investigate or follow up

 

what’s the definition of crying wolf?

Are you asking a question?  There are no question marks, so I am unsure.

 

Or are you enthusiastically agreeing with me?

From the Cambridge dictionary:

 

Quote

to keep asking for help when you do not need it, with the result that people think you do not need help when you really need it

While his mental illness means that he is probably not in control of the screams, and therefore couldn't really be called a liar, you could probably consider his screams as being an involuntary cry for help which people grew to ignore. It certainly sounds like it had the same affect as "crying wolf".

I see.  Well, the comment I was replying to was suggesting that it wasn't just Pit Bulls that attack people. My reply was claiming that the aggression and physical strength of Pit Bulls (and other dangerous dogs) means that they are unique in terms of damage they do when they do attack, and possibly the rate at which they attack. 

 

Meaning it is "just Pit Bulls" that do the damage they do.

But the 'Pit Bull' is not a breed in it's own right. So how will they define which breed it is. DNA?

In the UK:  dogs are considered “pit bull type” if they meet a substantial number of 15 physical features outlined by the DEFRA and copied directly from a 1977 issue of the American periodical Pit Bull Gazette.

 

 

Awful breed of dog, no reason to keep them unless running a crack house in the South Bronx.

Yes i can also not understand why the village people did not shoot them,

Dogs can get away with ANYTHING in Thailand. If you were there and saved the guy by shooting the dogs you'd be in deep <deleted>.

Another instance of a failed law enforcement system.  Roaming dogs of any breed are a public safety threat.  If fines were issued for abuse and failure to prevent dogs absconding bites and even some deaths could be prevented.  My neighbor chained his pitbull to my fence and gives her zero attention except an occasional bowl of cheap dog food.  I built her a shelter and set up a self filling water bowl for her after finding her dying in the sun without shelter or water and I supplement her diet with fish oil and protein and have acclimated her to my dogs.  She is strong as an ox got loose several times and once bit a neighbor.  Neglecting her is creating a potential disaster with many young children on the street.  I've tried the police and asked local vets where to report neglet. They all shrug their shoulders.  When someone dies they will blame the breed and it will continue to happen.

There is one of these at a house on our soi . It`s huge and I wouldn`t want to be anywhere in the vacinity if it ever got out . The main reason people keep these things is to intimidate the neighbours . The Thai media has christened them " kartagorn see kah " , or 4 legged killers - that`s just about right. The owners of these dogs that savage people should be charged with manslaughter and put behind bars .

Toss a meatball in their yard stuffed with a chocolate bar and your problem will be solved.

I see that you still can't answer a simple question.

 

You always try to divert or simply ignore the questions.

 

Posters who do that IMHO simply have no answers.

It doesn't say nothing about them at all, as contrary to your belief they are NOT popular dogs at all.

80% of the dogs mentioned I've never heard of before. They have 'Pit Bull' but 'Pit Bull' is not a breed in itself.

Interesting that `Thai Ridgeback` is among the banned breeds - wonder how that came about ????

But that doesn't answer my question. Why are Pit Bulls so popular around the world if they're considered a danger to humans?

Seriously, you don't know?

They are popular with their owners who buy them to intimidate other people or to be a visible presence as a dangerous animal guarding their property. The propert in question is often a stash of illegal drugs which the owner is peddling. 

 

These owners are pefectly happy that the dogs are dangerous to humans. That is the very reason they keep these animals.

And you really didn't know hat already??

Come on man. Put wild dogs down. If a dog mauls or kills they must be put down. No debate, no second chances and no rehabilitation. Owners must also be fined, pay restitution and locked up in the monkey house as well.

I’ll never forget on Thepprasit rd , opposite where the bus stops for market. They are shop houses, one had about 5/6 dogs in cages just inside. These weren’t tiny dogs, medium,sized. I always looked when I walked past, all times of day, in their cages, barking now and again.,I should  have told the police, but I don’t suppose they’d have done anything anyway, and I lived just opposite in TW condo then.

Lucky for the unfortunate victim that he didn't survive after having his genitals ripped apart by the beasts. 

He was angry but their neighbor, the owner, was a good man who would take care of the funeral cost.

 

Strange definition of a good man.  Hopefully he will also take care of funeral costs for the three pit bulls.

The 'Pittie' lovers side claiming they only attack due to bad training and being provoked

You dont see "badly trained" German shepherds or Labradors tearing off peoples junk! 

Where the hell do you think they got their name from? Pit Bulls were bred for Blood Sport's being performed in pits! They should be banned just as blood sports have been! Period.

Put the owners down unfortunately it’s to late to socialize the dogs so I guess it’s curtains for them as well my condolences to the family of the deceased guy lousy way to go

Now the owner must get the hoodoo guys to protect him from the "testicle-less man" spirit who will pursue him seeking vengeance.

 

 

And it seems quite obvious to me that 2 balls ripped apart indicates a lottery win. Clearly everyone in the village should try to find 22 78 32 44 and also a 6 because 2 minced testicles plus 2 4 legged killers equals 10.
