Woman killed by neighborhood dogs
Montgomery Herald ^ | August 10, 2018 | Montgomery County Sheriff Chris Watkins

Posted on 08/10/2018 3:03:59 PM PDT by Norski

released this statement Friday, August 10.

On Thursday, August 9, 2018, a resident of a Lake Tillery development on the western side of Montgomery County went missing while taking her daily walk. After several hours the 66 year old female did not return home. Her husband called neighbors and friends who searched the area. They were unable to locate her and call 911. Sheriff’s deputies and search and rescue were sent to the scene. Within hours she was discovered deceased on the side of an unused road within the development. An investigation was conducted with the assistance of the Medical Examiner’s Office, NC Wildlife Resources Commission and Animal Control. The investigation revealed she had been attacked by dogs. Law enforcement searched the neighborhood and located two pit bull dogs with physical evidence reflecting the dog’s involvement. The animals were taken into custody by Animal Control and are being quarantined. The owner of the dogs is cooperating with officials and the matter is still under investigation and review by the District Attorney’s Office. The name of the victim is being withheld until family members can be notified. The victim is being sent to the NC Medical Examiner’s Office in Raleigh for an autopsy. “This is a very tragic event, which has deeply affected the family, friends, deputies and first responders, our thoughts and prayers are being extended to all.”

These threads are just one continuous hate fest posted daily to feed the fear and hate you Pit Bull haters have. Nothing good ever comes from them. They are an exception to the rule about leaving one thread and going into another. They are always the same topic saying the same thing or close to it. It’s rinse and repeat daily.

You tell me one good thing that can come from that.

Oh shut up. I doubt you even believe in God. Such a faker.

You are the epitome of the term GIGO. Garbage In Garbage Out.

Tell me one good thing that comes from feeding this forum fear and hate on a daily basis like you do.

Just one.

One good thing is that I walk on the other side of the street when I see a pit bull coming. And I make sure that my holster is unlatched.

I think that is good.

Pit bull defenders are like the black racists. Speak the truth and immediately you’re labeled as a hater.

Tragic, but not surprising: https://www.dogsbite.org/dog-bite-statistics-multi-year-fatality-report-2005-2017.php?gclid=Cj0KCQjw77TbBRDtARIsAC4l83lcbnq0R45boZMT3oMS3pTn19vV9cUo3tb-rL3cxnjX_YpQeR-WebUaAi2KEALw_wcB

True. The multi - year fatalities report, link supplied above, is a downloadable pdf for those interested. In addition, there are many other statistical studies published at the same link. A valuable resource.

A good bear spray can stop a charging grizzly at sixty feet.

That’s a decent amount of time to take aim and keep firing.

Our communications are teaching me to appreciate having an adversary.

You may not believe it at this point, but you are doing me a favor, and I know that you have been sent to me from God. His only begotten Son the Lord Jesus Christ says that we are to “love our enemies”, and so I am trying to do what He says to do.

Christians are to love, not with human love, but with the Agape love of God. I fail - I am all too human - but I must try. And when I fail, I must get up and ask His forgiveness, and try again.

So thank you, Boomer, for being my adversary. I thank God for you, and again, I ask Him to bless you, and give you His best. In the name of Christ Jesus, amen.

We may never know the dogs’ motives.

Cry "havoc" and let slip the dogs of peace?

My grandparents got a pit bull for my father when he was a young child. At the time they lived on our family farm, and he was about 7. The year was 1940 and the breed had not been destroyed by irresponsible breeders. Long story short, he told me about 3 teenage boys riding by his house, He was outside with his dog- the Pit. These boys had 3 German Sheppards with them and when they saw my dad playing in the yard by himself they commanded their dogs to attack my dad. They didn’t see his dog, who was sitting behind a tree. My dad said before those 3 dogs had a chance to get to him, his dog lunged from behind the tree and snapped the necks of the 3 dogs within seconds. The boys took off on their bikes, and his dog chased them down the street. He always loved the breed but my mother would never allow us to have one because even as early as the 70’s Pits were being bred for nefarious purposes.

conservatives, by nature, seek to preserve the traditions and values that have served our society and culture.

Pit bull mauling of women and children do not preserve these things, they destroy them, like crocodiles & not part of the American conservative values.

Keep posting the stories about these monsters until they are unwelcome to devour our family members.

No one is demanding you be here. We all have the freedom to be here and give our opinions. Even those of us who DESPISE these PoS murdering menaces.
