it's likely a dude having a mental health crisis. if you feel unsafe you can contact the police, but I suggest you just lock doors and windows and hunker down for the rest of the night. it's unlikely the dude is going to come back. if he does, call the police.

"It’s a real thing"

Expand on that.

Volunteers are desperately needed. The shifts are only four hours. There’s also a need for donations to help fund all of this. They will be taking food donations as well.

By space I meant that they need more buildings to open up overnight. Churches are ideal because they typically have a lot of room and they already have fire code approval, so it’s just a faster to process to turn them into emergency shelters. But they certainly don’t have to be churches.

(Edited to clarify what I mean by space being needed.)

He is now having a building remodeled and named after his at Missouri State University as well 🤢

Volunteer space? Or is there other ways someone can help?

>Rarely, I'll see someone jogging or cycling on H as well, fuck those people too.

Yeah, fuck those people! Going out in their neighborhood to get some fresh air and exercise, the nerve of them! Don't they know SUV rights come first?

They’re too violent for hunting anything besides feral pigs; look up “hog-dogging.” They were bred fro bear-baiting and bull-baiting and other pit fights (hence the “pit” and “bull”). These were despicably gory events. When the pit-baiting entertainment fell out of fancy in Europe and North America, dog-fighting became the hustle for the beer-shwilling after hours ruffians. The pit breeds were further refined for effective killing. It really blows my mind that they could ever be marketed as family pets when their entire pedigree is built on blood lust.

Parents love to shit on public schools.

Thank you!

Millennial Goth here! Don't let anyone tell you how to enjoy the culture. Anyone who cares that much is a bitch who is gatekeeping.

Hard to get both sides of the story when the one side is dead

My mom works at the metal recycling yard and sees lots of homeless people every day, I’ll show her this flyer and see if she’s seen him and that way she can keep an eye out for him too. Best of luck finding him!

This made me laugh harder than it should have

There is absolutely cool and chill pitbulls, but if you believe in science, the concept on instinct and that dog breeds have traits, then there is absolute no breed of dog with the statistical highs of dog attacks and deaths in the United States. You can do all the research in the world and this fact will come back time and time, like it or not I'm afraid. From academic research to police reports.

Much like Collies often try and herd people by instinct (even if they've never been in a field before), or that terriers are more 'yappy', and Chihuahuas like to go under covers and use there arms to get attention, pit bulls like any other dogs are led by instincts.
Instincts are reinforced by breeding and the tasks given to them by humans, pit bulls have often been bred to fight, protect and guard, thus they are naturally more aggressive dogs, PLUS the high provocation from some owners lead to them being by far the most dangerous breed in the US. But to say they are only aggressive due to owners I'm afraid is just incorrect, it may not be 'their fault', but breeding and instincts have led them to have a higher rate of aggression than any other breed.

There is also the fact that if an aggressive Chihuahua attacks you, you will almost certainly live, a fully grown pitbull, well, sadly we know how catastrophic that can be.

Once again, this is no attack on your dog, just don't feel like you need to defend the entire breed because your pub is awesome.

I agree. This is why BSL is absolutely necessary and needs to be well written and enforced properly in combination with other legislation.

Pit bulls (no matter what name anyone calls them) are bred to give little to no warning that they will attack because they were bred for dogfighting and other bloodsport. It's an advantage in the ring, or pit ( that's where half of the names "pit bull" and "pit dog" came from, they fight in the pit).

The damage they do when they snap is often...bad. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

They weren't bred to be pets or service dogs, or good working dogs of any kind. I can't see any good reason for anyone to want to intentionally obtain a dog of this breed type or a mix containing a high enough content of said breed type. Some people, though, are misled or tricked into adopting or buying them and that really needs to stop.

Edit: I also want to say that the excessive breeding of fighting breeds is incredibly inhumane for the dogs themselves. They often don't have people to take them in who are fit to take on that type of dog and it's Hell for them when they are basically warehoused in shelters and rescues. It's no surprise that these facilities are often full of them when there's nothing to stop people from breeding them like this. There are some examples of this mentioned in subs like r/petrescueexposed, for anyone curious to see what I'm talking about.

I wandered through there in the summer. It was practically a woodland village. Also there's more woods on the other side of west bypass there too. Lots go further to the south closer to sunshine and there's more camps as well as camps behind McDonald's up in chestnut and bypass

He's the best

South Park did a special on this.

Would he have gone to a surrounding state? May be worth checking NW Arkansas since I know there's a large homeless community in Bentonville, though that may be too far away.

I'm sorry I don't have any information or additional help. The Ewings have always been such good people, and this hurts my heart so much.

It’s a real thing but it doesn’t mean shit like any church.

My older chihuahua attacked a walker on the sidewalk after bolting though a door. The nice fellow said “I think he bit me, not sure though”
