    Or we just acknowledge there is an “assault rifle” of dogs.

    Some can own them without issue their whole life.

    Some use them (in this case allow them) to cause disproportionate harm, beyond the norm.

    Should it be illegal to own? No.

    Should stringent training and care standards be in place? Yes.

      We don’t know the breed involved yet but we’re mostly assuming it’s pitbulls. They’re illegal to own here in the UK because they keep killing people.

        I don’t have to describe all facets of all topics.

        Assault rifles are already regulated and I’d be stoked to see dangerous dogs at least regulated

            Miss.

            You could buy an assault rifles in any year with the right paperwork. It was just incredibly hard to acquire.

            Regarding recent mass shootings, you’re thinking of semi automatic ar15s so maybe check your shit

            I wasn’t licensure, accountability and consequences
