"The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed"
The God given right to self defense and defense of ones family and property has been usurped by tyrants and their agents...the very kind our fore fathers gave up their lives and property to free us from..

Citizens need to be armed. These vicious dogs would have been history a long time ago if New Yorkers were packing sidearms.
Only in the city. Out in the country, these dogs would be dealt with out of hand.
If I were Rebecca Skloot, I'd think about moving to a decent place where you could defend yourself.
Then I'd look into changing my name, like fast.
Ol' Harry needs to wake up one morning to find one of his "pack" skinned and crucified to the outside of his van with a sign around its neck reading "Control your dogs".
A few pieces of compressed sponge dipped in bacon grease works wonders.
suppressed .22 and some nice back alleys will solve that problem once and for all.

If it were me and my $7,000 vet bill... there'd be a lot of dead pack dogs. Poor Harry might also become a victim of the mean streets.
One large bowl filled with a 50/50 mix of beef broth and antifreeze set where the dogs live. problem solved.
Once again I'm struck by the amazing level of passivity of people who live in big cities. No wonder so many of them vote Democrat.
I hadn't heard that one before. I was thinking antifreeze.

A woman I worked with had grandchildren who lived in a neighborhood with pitbulls. The dogs would frequently get out and harrass the kids. The cops would do nothing, because no one had been bitten yet. The neighbors got together and threw poisoned meet over the fence. End of problem.
Indeed; works on the varmint population in these parts. Lead poisoning is too good for them.
Gun? She don't need no stinkin' gun.
Two pounds of chopped meat, one pound of rat poison. Mix well, throw over fence after midnight. Tomorrow, a yard full of ex-dogs (and maybe Harry, too, if he's in the mood for hamburger).
Get caught putting out a pan containing antifreeze and the PETA/ASPCA crowd will see you hung from the nearest light pole.
Sponge pieces is just littering. Although with a big pack it may take a while.
Of course, a responsible owner would make sure their animals never were a problem in the first place.
The thing I never saw in the story was about the dog's license. Did every dog has its collar and license? In our town if you own a dog it better have the rabies and county tags on it's collar of your fine starts adding up quick.
HELLO! Is this man Harry living legally in that lot? NO! Outrageous that the police can't arrest him for trespassing and impound the dogs for a variety of reasons. Isn't there a LEASH LAW in NYC? Ridiculous.
