A man near Fresno, Calif., was mauled to death by four pit bulls ... The man was found dead Tuesday night in the driveway of a home in Selma. Animal control officers later impounded four pit bulls, six pit bull puppies and two other dogs at a house next door

...

A neighbor said he wasn't surprised, saying that the pit bulls had killed his own dog about a month ago.

They come in our front yard and will come in our driveway," Blake Anderson told KSEE. "I couldn't even get out of my car one time. There were like four of them, so yeah it's ridiculous."

12 gauge shotgun works wonders, Blake.

I have a new neighbor that shoots anything wandering around off leash at night. Works for me.

If he was a rescuer, this is tragic. If he was raising them to sell for fighting, this is justice.

Was it the owner of the pitbulls that was mauled to death??? The story is unclear.

The owner of the animals did sign all the animals over to Animal Control Services, where they will not be returned to the owner.

Actually, it is.

We have a pittie that would kill you...with his tail and tongue. He is a great big love monkey.

He’s 90 lbs of muscle and our 3 lb Chihuahua absolutely rules the Pit.

I mounted a chain saw onto a Roomba. It’s real cute and plays well with everyone... as long as no one turns on the switch.

On the contrary, it’s a good thing this man didn’t have a gun. Because bringing a gun to a violent situation only makes things worse. (Well, this *is* California, after all.)

These things are a cocked and loaded handgun. If my neighbor brought one home, I would make it my business to see it destroyed.

Pit bulls must be Muslim. A cartoon could set them off on a killing spree.

Disagree. A cocked and loaded gun won't fire unless you pull the trigger. A pit bull can attack for any reason or no reason at all, and then you'd better have YOUR loaded gun handy if you don't want to be seriously injured.

My point is, they pull their own trigger without provocation or reason.

Anyone want to try drawing a cartoon of Mad Mo as a pit bull?
