Jeff Borchardt--- "I'm more pissed at that phony sheriff Joe."

From the Facebook page, 'Watch Mickey Beat Cancer'.

This grotesque money-spinning 'prop' riding the cream of Pit Bull propaganda at the moment, has his very own Ipad. Doesn't he look thrilled. No, he doesn't. He'd rather be mauling something to death, and let's be honest here.... he put in a good effort not so long ago.

What an abhorrent and disgusting world we live in, when a Pit dog is a Celebrity and given gifts that many child victims of Pit Bull attack can only dream abo...

  Lesley Karen Luscombe Decent people are naturally repelled by this, Sue. The rest of them just think it is 'cute' and that Mickey is a big ol' meat-ball who just needed a bit of love.... and that Kevin was completely to blame for his disfiguring attack. Victim-blamers and groupies of Pit Bulls that have maimed or killed - sick people. Sad, sick, twisted people.

  Sue Palen It embarrasses me to live in this town where so many people are on Mickey's side.

  Lesley Karen Luscombe Stuff likes this makes me ashamed of the human race, to be honest. Not everyone, but a hell of a LOT of them. I don't think that even in my darkest moments I could laud the behaviour of that Pit dog, or think it was 'cute' that it got itself a bloody Ipad.

  Lee Roy How can they look at the faces of all these sweet kids that died, and think a beast is worth it? About a decade ago psychologists really started talking about failure to bond sydrome. Starting with moms and babies, and it results in the baby not being able to bond with their own child as well as other people. I wonder is this is a result. A generation of people that are sociopaths disguised as properly functioning humans. This still does not explain the love for the dog though. But explains the lack of concern for people.

  Lesley Karen Luscombe The dog is a New Religion. It imparts a religious frenzy. It is an outlaw, a renegade, a 'rebel' among dogs. It answers the call of people who already feel outlawed in some way - societal cast-offs, the disappointed, the abandoned, the childless, the fatherless, the motherless, the 'misunderstood', the deviant, the loveless, the lifeless, the broken, the ugly, the angry, the disappointed, the friendless, the dangerous, the thwarted, the visceral reactionaries who cannot engage in critical thinking, the ignored, the leaderless, the rudderless, the misfits.... and the vapid weak who have long held a sense of 'not quite fitting in'. 
  
  The outlaw dogs need mentors and protectors, they think. The dog is strong and dangerous, but enchants people by its goofy friendliness and its outward appearance and behaviour of something approaching normality. The dog is misunderstood, it skirts around the edge of other dogs' enjoyed normality and acceptance by the masses, it doesn't DESERVE to be treated so unfairly, it just needs a chance. Just as when things go wrong for their mentors and protectors and owners, it is NEVER the fault of the self. One is never to blame. Others are always to blame. Something else presented itself as an unwanted catalyst. Something else stirred the dog to violent action. The dog was justified in 'striking back'. 
  
  Something in that dog is mirrored in those people. Like moths to the flame, the broken and the angry court these dogs. 'Such a handsome boy', 'what a lover', 'just licks me to death', 'my baby', 'better than any human', 'a big old meatball', 'it isn't my dog you should be scared of.. it's me'. 
  
  He wouldn't harm a fly. But they KNOW he would. They know it. Because it is THEY that would like to harm a great deal more than flies, and there is a deeply secret desire to possess, to own, to handle, to be licked and loved by 'something' that COULD act out their OWN suppressed viciousness. They believe that they could snap their fingers and KNOW that that dog would obey and attack, shedding blood at their bidding. The dog is their threat to a world that they feel has threatened and outcast THEM.
  
  But they don't understand that the dog will need no bidding, no catalyst, no reason. The dog is an island unto itself. Aloof, cool, unknowable, unpredictable, dual-natured. And they cannot BEAR the thought that their licky-lick meatball would ever turn its teeth on their hallowed flesh, or the flesh of their own child, until it is too damn late. And even THEN, they think they can disengage the dog from its work and retain their self-image as Beast-Master.
  
  They worship those dogs and they attach human emotions to those dogs that they can never feel. Not content with attaching the normal behaviours of NORMAL dog breeds to those abnormal dogs, they then dress them up in human emotions - the 'smiling' Pittie, and the 'sad-faced' Pittie, and that look that just says 'all I need is to be loved and to give love in return, and hundreds of years of bred-for-purpose happy savagery will fall away from me, cast out by your love and your hope'.
  
  It is a defiant act, to own or rescue or place trust in a Pit Bull. It is a hateful part-human scream that says 'I don't feel accepted, I'm different, and so is my dog of choice. And as long as he hasn't yet attacked me or mine, then to ME he is harmless. And even after that, when he has roamed and killed a child, or gutted a harmless pet dog, or killed a thousand cats in my neighbourhood, I will make excuse after excuse for him and all that are like him. He is not just my friend. He IS me. So take us on if you DARE'.
  
  The disillusioned people of modern times have teamed up with the purpose-made dangerous dogs of a bygone age. And it's not a pretty sight, at any point.

  Laurie Miller Musselman *Applause* Lesley Karen Luscombe, that was one of the best descriptions of defenders of the killer dogs, that I have ever read. It explains so much, and it is so true. Thank you! Very well written, and spot on, and true!

  Laurie Miller Musselman Start with that whole post and the whole comment as your outline for your book. Then, use a nom de plume. ( A pen name.)
