Please don’t misunderstand, I totally agree with your assessment of your neighbors.
My point is that there is no legit reason to surrender to the brownshirt mentality of leftist-globalist “NGOs” like the (in)Humane Society, or any other like it.
We the people have to keep control of society by being on top of our own lives all of the time. We do not need them!
But I face a more immediate problem.
My neighbors to the right have young children who play in the front yard within sight of said dog. I spoke to the young mother of those children today and she said the dog came into her yard last week and basically chased the children into the house.
My neighbor on the left is an elderly lady who putters around her yard.
I understand that the owner of the pit bull might believe his dog is a friendly family pet...but he has already shown signs of aggression.
I have to live here and don't want to get into a feud with my neighbors, but I worry about the worst case scenario.
