And I'm sure the dog wasn't fighting the guy either. People have to remember that dogs forget anything they do in less than 1 minute. So, if you hit your dog for chewing your shoes up when you come back from work that night; chances are it thinks you're hitting him for no reason.

BTW, the article doesn't tell the complete story:
The dude is built like a brick ****house.
The dude wasn't just kicking the dog, but swinging the dog on the chain over his head, into the ground.
He did this whilst walking +4 miles to quarry.
The dude made comments like "My dog embarrassed me" & when asked why he simply just got rid of the dog, "He's my dog. I can't give him away."

it does sound like every issue in this story can be traced to the owners of the dog.

Yeah I agree, but then I didn't want to get flamed for not being "humane"

The debate is very similar, with the same arguments. People stating facts, or excuse me, facts that were actually reported by statistical or media agencies, and personal incidents. These stories are reported and noted more often because of the stigma related to the "pitbull" and if it were an attack by a more socially acceptable "breed" then it wouldnt make headlines or capture the attention of the vast majority of the population because it is considered an "unusal case" and considered out of character.

BASTARD!...oh, err...BaXter.
that was one of the lames pits i've ever known.
my parents had a a GREAT female brendal pitbull.
the only pit i ever trusted our daughter around.
never was violent or mean, slept in the house on her bed, was well trained (they too her to classes) and loved people.
she would do this thing with my mom's cat that used to freak her out; the dog would scoop up the cat around it's ribcage in the middle and carry it around the yard like a momma dog would do w/ puppies. bu my mom was always nervous she'd just clench down and snap the cat's spine. she never did.
as for the unnamed officer; cheers! animal abusers are almost as bad as child abusers.
BTW; i see my old skate video collection on the mantel in the background.

Dogs DO remember more than a minute.
I was house-sitting and the dog chewed up my shoe while I was gone. I get home that evening and I could tell by the dog's mannerisms (before I saw the shoe) that it had done something wrong.

You obviously have NO idea about those dogs, jack russels are VICIOUS.... my uncle has one... hes perfectly docile most of the time & hes actually kind of a ***** but every once in a while he flies off the handle... if there is anything close to his size or smaller he WILL rip its throat out. My cousins cousin has a permanent hairlip because the dog tried to rip her face off, my uncle has had a surgery on his hand and a surgery on his foot from the dog biting him. He has kille hundreds of small animals and eaten a litter of kittens, he has attacked a pitbull as a matter of fact. Its the way the dog was raised & the personalty of the particular dog that really matters.
My friend has a pitbull, it has had two litters and about 12 people i know have gotten the puppies, nobody has ever been bitten by any of the dogs.

my buddy had to get rid of their jack russel cus it killed everything on their property (i.e. bats, raccoons, skunks, pigeons, squirrels, etc... it even attacked a deer!) and had to be quarantined over 8 times for rabies.
this was nice to people, but wanted to kill everything it saw.
they almost put it down, but they found a family that was wiling to take it.
