When a FR Thread is Pulled (Vanity)
Self | 3/25/2019 | Super7man

I am trying to understand the standards and criteria for a post and thread being removed from FR.

A few days ago, a thread regarding 2 Rottweilers killing a small child was removed.

The post was from a legitimate news report. The content of the thread was not surprising, facts and reports being referenced on dog attacks, and emotional appeals along the lines of "I will own whatever dog I want."

The point: This post was not different than many here at FR. Facts were being presented and a discussion was being had. Is there a stated criteria here at FR under which a Post and thread will disappear with no explanation? Sometimes I see a pop-up that states a thread has been pulled with some reason. This one just went away. Why?

It’s funny but Pitbull haters and now Rotts too apparently

Those folks here are often mixed with south bashers

And a lot were Anti Trumpers....not all though

Coincidence?

One of our pastors works for some group that rescues pitbulls and reforms them. He said some never make it as they have been so traumatized - but it sounds like most of them can be re-trained and then put with families.

He said their original nickname was “Nanny Dog” or something - as they were so good around children, and protective of them.

My only fear of them is their strong jaws and bite. We used to baby sit our neighbor's pitbull and it would stay at our house with our dog. But the pit would climb up in our daughter's bed, get under the sheets, and sleep with her - heads on the same pillow!

Pretty cute, but I always worried that what happens if my daughter kicks the dog in her sleep and the dog instinctively snapped at her?

My wife said not to worry - the neighbor child sleeps with it like that every night. Nothing every happened.

My mom had her face ripped open as a child - by a normally friendly German Shepherd. Mom was cuddling with it and she touched an old wound. It was just one snap by the dog, but ripped her up pretty good.

Oughta start posting every Pibble who graduates from the police academy and becomes a K-9, after they were pulled from kill shelters.

Every week there’s at least one new grad.

But these people probably hate cops, too, so...
