7 pit bulls put down after killing owner

ROBESON COUNTY, N.C. —

Animal Control officers had to put down seven pit bulls that viciously attacked and killed their owner.


According to deputies, Mary Jo Hunt, 53, was killed in the backyard of
her Robeson County home, just south of Fayettteville, last week.

Authorities said the dogs attacked Hunt when she used a rake to separate them from fighting.

A neighbor who witnessed the aftermath called 911.

Investigators said Hunt and her sister took care of the rescued animals at their home.

Two other dogs were also seized, but they are being kept in isolation.

  • Pit bull lovers can call me a prejudiced bigot or whatever. I don't give a fuck. These dogs are vicious. How do you think they got their name?

    • @darkl3ad3r What you are is ignorant. Just like any leftist saying *derp* guns kill people! *derp*. The one thing people like you, and Richard Dorkins, and every other irrational BSL advocate have in common, is that you've never owned one, and have no clue what you're talking about.

    • @ST0N3PONY I have disagree

      One suprising conclusion of several studies is the fact that many varieties of dogs have been involved in a fatal human attack for one reason or another. Topping the list of deaths by dog in a twenty year period is the Pit Bull and Pit Bull mix at 66 human deaths.

    • @Gulf Flyer You think that has nothing to do with people like DMX and Mike Vick popularizing the breed as a tough-guy status symbol? You ever see Petey killing any of the Little Rascals?

      Before pit bulls, these same degenerates were using Rottweilers. And at that time, all the same people were making all the same fallacious arguments about that breed. Before that, it was Dobermans. etc. etc.

      The Pit Bull did not magically turn mean in the last 25 years. The Rottweiler did not magically become More..

    • @ST0N3PONY I agree however Pitbulls have proven over and over again that they are not a stable breed regardless of their owners.

    • @Gulf Flyer I don't agree with that. They're as stable as any other breed. The problem is that when some moron's chained up and neglected dog escapes, or their abused fighting dog escapes, they act shocked when some news channel sticks a camera in their face. They always say "it's so shocking, the dog was so well taken care of, I guess pit bulls are just naturally dangerous, so don't sue me for everything I own". And people actually believe it (coincidentally, always people who haven't More..

      I think that was a rhetorical question.

      That story did not exist, and for a good reason.
