Rest in peace, Robin Conway.

I believe this to be the 18th reported death by pit bull mauling this year, for an death rate of one every 13.5 days this calendar year. So far.

A comment from the Baltimore Sun newspaper story:

“The police are conducting a standard death investigation and will confirm the cause of Conway’s death after an autopsy by the state medical examiner’s office.

A necropsy, an autopsy on an animal, will be performed determine if the dog had rabies or other medical issues.

Pit bulls have been labeled “as inherently dangerous animals” in a state appeals court case.”

Again, they should be muzzled while waiting to be put down. The entire breed should be put down. No exceptions, no excuses.

And while this one is the owner, the folks adopting out the deadly animal should now be sued out of business. They and the owner (if not dead, like this case. Karma) should be held criminally liable.

I find it rather strange that the first comments from the sister of the deceased were to defend the Pit Bull breed.
Maybe these weren’t ‘first comments’ but later that day.
Still, the body isn’t cold yet, and the sister is so quick to wave the flag of that breed. She aims to fight the ‘haters’!

I’m guessing that for a 64 y/o woman to take such a dog on in any capacity meant she was an experienced Foster Dog Owner.
My sympathies for her husband who found his wife in that condition. A sight that will stay in his mind forevermore.

It’s not the pit bulls. it’s the media that is anti-pit pull.

You see, the media only reports when a pit bull mauls a person to death.

But, when a golden retriever or border collie goes on a blood thirsty people killing mauling spree, the media is silent.

article: "that is not to be something to be held against all pit bulls, because there are some lovely ones out there …"

Yadda, yadda, yadda, yadda, …

Talk to the hand lady, talk to the hand, cause the face ain't listening.

“This is one animal she thought she could save. An animal that needed to be rescued. (And that) animal unfortunately killed her,” said her sister Susan Eve LeClair.

There is no cure for stupid just as there is no cure for leftism.

"This is one animal she thought she could save."

From everything I’ve read, pitt bulls are incredibly sweet and gentle dogs. Which may snap at any moment and attack and kill anyone around them, including their owners, their owner’s kids, and anyone who comes within attack range of them. Living with a pitt bull is like living with an open barrel of gunpowder while being a chain smoker. Sooner or later it will kill you.

I’m posting to state this was LITERALLY around the corner from my last house. We moved to our current location 11 years ago to have a better house for our new child. Thank God. In fact, I see the house was exactly the same kind of simple split-foyer as ours.

It was a decent immediate neighborhood.

I suspect, due to her age, her name, and her location that she was a do-gooder white woman (ah, I was right on race I see) in denial about PBTs (also judging by her “sister”). I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the very same house that had a 6-ft fence to help contain their Great Dane back then!
