It seems you have had more than your share of grief and violence. Why do you suppose some people, like you perhaps, have such bad luck? I read what you posted above and couldn't help but wonder why I have no such experiences to share (not that I would want to have them). Does it have something to do with where you live, hang out or with the people you know?
Incidentally, not all Pit Bulls are attack dogs. I suspect they have a bad reputation because some people have trained them to be dangerous.
Oh, the old blame the victim routine, based on the ridiculous 'just world' theory put forward by religious nut-jobs. Maybe I could say the same about those 22 kids brutally murdered at school, why is it they suffered such bad luck eh? perhaps they have been selling drugs or committing serious crimes, perhaps the 5 year old's were hanging out with the wrong crowd, it could have been that they lived in the wrong middle class suburb. It is normally those who in some way are responsible for others suffering that cast the blame on the victim. Their subconscious feelings of guilt force them to project blame elsewhere so as to prevent them examining their part and their responsibility. See, if you are someone who advocates for guns, you play a part in enabling these incidents to happen, therefore, Gun advocates must bear some responsibility, but because Gun Advocates are either unwilling or unable to do this, they blame the victims, or anything other rather than reflect on how they contributed and take remedial action.
So the reason people are victims to say gun crime or pitbull attack, is not because of karma or some other sick justification for blaming the victim, it is because their are individuals and groups that have enabled it, the Gun Lobby and their supporters, The Pitbull lobby and their supporters etc. etc supported by an uncaring and selfish community, and like you, finds it easier to blame victims than to take responsibility for themselves and their communities security and safety. And the reason why you have no such experiences to share is it could be, as a man who embraces life I have just taken a lot more risks than you, The majority of people like to live a sheltered existence and play it safe, that could possibly be you. Maybe you might understand it in Religious terms, seeing your a God Botherer, It could also be that GOD doesn't give people more than they can handle, perhaps he doesn't think you can handle much, therefore you have had an easy life.
And don't worry, I have had many people try and belittle me and attack me by suggesting that I have gotten what I deserve, these people are generally NOT GOOD people (although they generally are the righteous people, who think they are above everyone else), they have been generally SPOILT in their life and suffered very little. Your HATE only strengthens my resolve and I pity your lack of wisdom and self awareness.
And don't even get me talking about Pitbulls, I know more about the breed, it's history, the effects of nature vs nurture and the devastation these attacks inflict more than any human being I have ever met. After the attack on myself I studied the breed relentlessly, I became an advocate for breed restrictions and had my own website (I recently closed it down). I still have a facebook page reporting the pretty much daily attacks and I am in regular contact with other serious Breed ban Advocates. It was this advocacy that made me impervious to the attacks and insults of Special Interest Groups, I have had numerous death threats, receive regular HATE emails and receive much abuse and bile during the course of this advocacy. I have learnt not to expect anything else from Special Interest Groups that refuse to accept responsibility for the selfish agendas they promote that cause unimaginable suffering within their communities.
