There are definitely some dangerous breeds out there but pit bulls do the most damage by a HUGE margin, by all measures.

Understandable. Next time - because there WILL be a next time - don't hesitate.

If mace worked, it wasn't a real dog fight.

People think a lot of noise and drama is a "dog fight" and have never seen or had to break up a real one.

They're not similar in the slightest.

As an Alaskan I can assure you that Maine absolutely is nothing like Alaska.

Yes, there are bad breeds and pit bull is one of the worst.

As predictable as the tides, aren't they. Fucking useless menace animals.

Um, it's an aggressive and dangerous dog that tried to kill another animal unprovoked. It's a BAD DOG.

Hopefully you learned not to try to keep a dog in an electric fence, and put up a real fence.

Mace will not stop a real dog fight. Shooting a dog that is attacking you or your property is not legally complicated.

Shoot that fucking thing and don't think twice.

You had a gun and didn't shoot that thing? I hope you learned that lesson!

Police, animal control, a lawyer, and a weapons store.

I carry a weapon every single time I'm out with my dogs for this very reason.
