What dicey situations have you been in Nick?
You seem confused about criticizing somebody over a shooting when you were not there. Speaking of wasting time trying to reason with people here.
What dicey situations have you been in Nick?
If attacked by a determined dog while you're unarmed, the best advice I've heard is to drive your thumbs into its eyeballs. If that's not possible and the dog has you on the ground, shove your stiffened cupped hand as far down its throat as you can manage while holding it around the neck with your other arm. Don't let go until the dog stops breathing. Failing either of those, if you have the sufficient strength and speed, quickly pick the dog up as high as you can and piledrive in head first into the ground. If it isn't killed outright, that will break or rupture something and stop the attack. Or a tight bearhug around the neck until it's dead.
I like dogs as much as the next person but they are animals. As animals, there is always an element of unpredictability.
If attacked by a cat, grab it by the tail and swing against the nearest stationary object. Or go for distance.
that dog in the video was charging
lain: You're right....But personally I couldn't see myself killing this animal. It's simply too small to be a valid threat to me personally (Or..IMHO...That cop). The cop panicked and overreacted. The shame of it is he probably is feeling terrible about it but can't express that due to liability concerns.
The world we live in.
Yep.right, she opened the door and let the dog out
seems kinda stoopid to me :idunno:
why didn't the owner have the dog under control?
The dog that bit me didn't bare it's teeth or snarl either. It walked right up to me like it was going to sniff me and just attacked.
As unfortunate as the situation is, it's not up to you to tell others how they are allowed or expected to defend themselves in such a situation.
I didn't know that animals could be "murdered" (PETA strikes again with a gross misuse of the English language)...
