If I may ...
Ok, sufficient time has passed ... Why haven't these people been charged with child neglect and child endangerment by keeping a known aggressive type animal in reach of an infant? Where is child social services? Why wasn't that dog chained up while the infant was at the house? There are laws forcing us to wear a helmet when driving a motorcycle, and laws forcing us to wear seat belts, and laws forcing us to have child car seats in the remote possibility that we might accidentally, or through no fault of our own, harm ourselves or a child. Why are there no laws stipulating that a child cannot be in the presence of a known aggressive breed "pit bull' type dog to prevent mauling and death? Or laws forbidding the ownership of that type of dog with young children in the house? Or laws, at a minimum, stating that type of dog must be well chained and out of reach while a child is present? Hell, there are firearm laws that stipulate that firearms must be secured well away, and locked, and unloaded, so no one, or a child, can get access to it. Why not the same with aggressive and spontaneously without warning killing machine "pit bull" type dogs?
