I think HD and Lowe's should not allow kids in the stores. I believe it is not a safe environment for little kids and strollers alike. Too many chemicals, to many hazardous tools, too many forklifts, too many sharp objects. If I came around a corner and tripped up on someones kid or dog.......
As far as the pit bull attack.....after reading really quickly through most of the replies....Is all the attacking dogs owners got was a ticket? Was it ever answered where this attack happened? On the dog owners property? Public property? The dead dogs owners property? If on public property, I'm highly surprised the Pit was not taken into custody until a review was done on the dog to determined if it was indeed safe to be allowed back to its owners.
I have trained dogs for over 25 years and I have never heard of just getting a ticket in the case of another dog being killed.
