this shit is bananas :| really people.
i keep people saying this was meant to be a hoax but i don't think they realize that people will see this and actually do this shit.
i keep seeing people say*
what the fuck world
shisno: as far as i can tell, that's coming from one article that was misinterpreted, because it's an article in a local paper saying "this
isn't our city councilman, it's someone else"
but i keep seeing people linking that and saying IT'S A HOAX
i dont see what about it is a hoax either way. it's a horrible message that's gone out there and it's not like there's a part of it
dissuading people from violence.
as if saying IT'S A HOAX will get the idea out of people's heads
Yeah, there will definitely be people who will do this
because there are fucking awful people out there
what the fuck
I always keep my pets inside on Halloween anyway because people are fuckheads who will hurt them.
"their owners like to brag about their high threshold for pain" D:
all the pitbull owners I know like to brag about what cuddly lovable sweethearts they are
this makes me incredibly sad
...what the hell, people. 8|
I like how its assumed that no other breed of dog will turn vicious if you mistreat it. Just pitbulls, apparently. Idiots.
I read somewhere that Dalmations have a far higher likelihood to attack people than a pitbull does.
what the fuck
what kind of a monster would even do that
>:I
Pitbulls are bred for fighting but this remains fucking ridiculous.
See, there's one problem with that
if anyone tried to hit my dog, I would take their bat and beat THEM with it D:<
My baby is staying inside on Halloween. God knows someone'll hurt him because he looks like a German Shepherd.
and my neighbors would probably join in because roughly 70% of my neighborhood has dogs
I have a black cat. I've always had to keep her inside around halloween, but this is fucking ridiculous.
yeah i always kept my animals inside on Halloween
people will take any excuse to be assholes
I have black cats, I do too.
damn w tf
What a horrible person D8! This is complete animal cruelty!
....cuddles her sisters black cat :<
Ugh. People do enough terrible things to animals on Halloween without crap like this being brought into the mix.
Sometimes people just need to be beaten.
What the fuck this is really disgusting
Guh, humanity makes me sick sometimes. Seriously? Who the fuck thinks to write something like this for any reason? B|
This is disgusting.
welp, my dogs are staying in. they'd get hit because they're huskies and would look kind of like wolves at night
...right. babysitting the stray boxer that lives somewhere on my street that night. unbelievable.
D: D: D: D:
I'll want to let my brother and his wife know to keep their puppies safe. No danger of being mistaken, but there's no telling
what people will do when riled up.
Sorry, but this smells a loooot like urban legend to me.
Like a mix between the "gang initiation" and "kill cats on Halloween" legends.
It likely is one
OTOH - I'm not one to trust idiots in large numbers
how about national beat an animal abusing asshole day. i'm gonna push for that.
I have not seen this spread by one person in favor of it, ftr, but by dozens opposed. So.... which side is getting the idea out there?
^that
Also I have to wonder how they would pull this off since I don't think anyone would let this happen? No, pitbulls aren't regarded well but
Should this spread around fast enough, I imagine enough people are going to, rather than try to kill the dogs, protect them.
Tell animal control or police officers or idk.
Maybe I'm being too optimistic but no matter the breed, any sort of call for animal cruelty like this is never taken well.
Wow..
what in the fuck
I was told, but an Animal Control officer, that in 20 years working for AC, he had been bitten by 3 dogs.
A German Sheppard, and two dachshunds.
In 20 years... never once a pit.
My family has a lot of little dogs and I get nipped by THEM more often then than rotties.
I know some of it is because I'm nervous around the little dogs but it's BECAUSE they are allowed to be aggressive.
i don't have dogs but i think rottweilers are adorable ;3;
I don't honestly give any fucks whether the notice was a joke or not. It's still disgusting and the people should be utterly ashamed of
themselves
they should feel how much it hurts to be hit by those things rather than say 'do it to the dogs'
what the fuck have dogs ever done to them that warranted something like this
If I dare catch anyone Halloween night trying to hit or torture a dog, there will be hell to pay.
^^this
... The fuck.
who the fuck would participate in that
oh god
oh god
I can't with this fucking world anymore I'm sorry
If anyone tried to hurt my dog, I'd kick their asses.
Sorry, just happened to be walking with a baseball bat~
Don't they realize that dogs can't protect themselves very well against baseball bats and the like
fucking monsters
My cat wasn't black, and he was even an inside house cat, but on Halloween we always locked him in the garage
(Our garage being converted into another room in our house, it doesn't open)
We didn't want any accident of him slipping out :|
Our other one, luckily, was a pretty smart cookie when it came to staying in safe areas
Yeah, we hid our cats, too
I think laws need to change about animal abuse. They need to be treated as a little more than just property
er, in my last neighboorhood
where i grew up everyone had cats in that neighborhood
Especially animals with such complex brains
animal abuse needs to be like child or elderly abuse.
if someone caught anyone trying to hurt an animal, they'd have an entire group of people to deal with
because a lot of animals are fairly helpless against dickheads
if they don't just run at the sight of someone
It needs to be fairly clear, because I don't think it's wrong for us to say, eat animals.
But to abuse or make them suffer? It's unnecessary
by that I mean I feel it needs to be prosecuted in the same way
well I don't think eating an already dead animal is animal abuse
that's nonsensical. also game is different
how about we make it kill a fucking dumbass day
why are people like this oh my godlakjsg
You know, I've always wondered, but I have an aunt who probably wouldn't be far off and it's just nuts
She has a little dog that she treats like her grandchild
But her cat? She treats it like Satan-spawn
... this is disgusting. Definitely going to talk to my parents about keeping the dogs in the garage thix Halloween.
And let me tell you, there is something majorly wrong with that woman :|
this was fake guys
... Yeah this is why we never let our (Black or mostly black) cats outside on Halloween.
they wrote an article about it
It may be fake, but the black cats one isn't. Just saying.
Maraich
thinks
the way you teach kids to treat animals plays a big factor in what kind of person they become
geekyshoelaces: fake or not, some people will take it seriously
people do not seem to comprehend this
there are people who abuse animals on Halloween. Some people will see it, ignore the point of the article and go "WELL GUYS GET
THE PITCHFORKS AND BATS WE GOT SOME DOGS TO MAUL"
>:|
I know but people spreading this around? only adds fuel to the flame.
my dog's a pitbull
so I absolutely do care but it makes me nervous to see this everywhere and spread around so much
even if it's well intended
the thing is though, there's a chance the article will spread across the US faster than we can notify people about it.
there's a chance that it won't but are we willing to take the chance for animal abuse to happen
the story came out a few weeks ago and people keep bringing up over and over instead of just letting it disappear like it needs to
I don't care if it's fake, who would even write something like this?
Jesus Christ. Well my pit is staying inside for a couple months now.
W O W WHAT THE FUCK
disgusting, hoax or not
You have got to be scum of the earth if you're okay with killing these dogs.
I feel disgusted just reading this. Here's hoping people keep their dogs safe this Halloween.
this is fake. it's not funny nor does it prevent some idiots from probably doing something because they're assholes, so be wary
but in the end it is a facebook fake and that isn't something widely recognized as true. plus if it was, they would be getting inot
a lot of fucking trouble with the authorities, especially on a night like halloween where cops are extra wary
you know, I hear so much about the bad reputation of pit bulls. but every pit bull I have actually met was a flawless sweetie.
okay so i was curious about this original post
i quote searched it on google and used the image searching thing too
the only site i found it on was tumblr, i'm thinking it was just done to rile people up because i haven't seen it anywhere else
all just wonderful dogs SO HAPPY to make a new frand!!!
so thankfully it's probably not real
yeah it would be stupid to go out and kill a person's pet on the night that ENTIRE COMMUNITIES OF PEOPLE ARE OUT LATE
it's definitely NOT real, and i wish people would stop freaking out about it
like it's cruel and gross but it's fake
it's probably fake but there will be nutjobs that see it and believe it
yes, which is why nobody should be replurking it and spreading it around
as a 'warning' it's redundant and useless because anyone with a pet who cares about them knows to keep them inside on Halloween anyway.
The thing is, not all people think about it--lose track of the day and what not. Hoax or not, it's already spread so far (news outlets are
commenting on it), that a reminder of pet safety is at least relevant, though this particular iimage is not the best.
The fact that it's a complete hoax doesn't mean it's not going to give assholes ideas if they see it.
Which means that it doesn't really matter whether people inclined to be utter bastards are spreading this around as an actual game plan.
It can so easily become an inspiration for assholes if they just happen to see it.
So it's best to simply not take chances on having your pet run across someone who saw this and decided it was a good idea.
(Disturbing content in next sentence, skip over it if you're really tender-hearted/don't have a strong stomach/possess faith in humanity)
I saw a news story once about people who roasted a live kitten on a grill. Do not assume that no one could be that utterly despicable.
(Same warnings as above)
...great. now I'm going to spend my Halloween worrying myself sick.
There was a kid in Texas recently that beat two puppies to death and took pictures--all because they were barking everyday.
Even though my dog is a chiweenie
I'm at college and 4 hours away from her so I will be paranoid until the holiday is over.
She should be fine, my parents don't do anything for Halloween and our street doesn't see many trick or treaters or anything, so
she'd only even be outside (while supervised and on a leash) to go to the bathroom, but. Yeah. I hate people.
Also thank god my cats are all indoor cats. Two out of four are black cats, so.
it's okay to say that it was fake and an article was made out of it. it is NOT okay to say that because of this people should let it go
as if nothing will come of it
because something WILL come of it
some asshole will read this and either take it seriously or give no fucks and actually do it anyway
Exactly. I was noting the article specifically to note that so many people are going to be exposed to it that you have to figure some
asshole will give no fucks and do it.

says
can I feed him one of those hotdogs :/
please do
No. No. God I hate people sometimes.
/hides Rusty
I'll let my brother know to walk the dogs early that day, even if they aren't pitbulls
fuckin' sick..
"They can take it" - UGH, you jerks. I'd like someone to feed this guy a poisoned hotdog and go "No, hey, YOU CAN TAKE IT"
I vote that if we see it, we join in.....to take the bats/etc to their FACES. Let's see if they can take it!
(The peoples faces that is)
what!!?
What the fuck, seriously?Animal abuse is never ok!
what's the benefits for doing that?
sherry84922: they are acknowledged as complete cocks and get a trophy for being huge douches? idk, their minds bewilder me
why pitbulls?
any dog can bite when mistreated
and any can injure their owners out of excitement
I can't tell how many times my dog almost disembowled me when he got excited and jumped on me
i think cuz pitbulls have that stigma of being "violent dogs" and maybe cuz that dude's just biased against them?
(we never declawed him and his claws grow fast)
I see
This is definitely a hoax, but that doesn't mean people shouldn't ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS exercise extra caution with pets around Halloween
Halloween is the new Carnivale
it's a time for silly costumes and throwing normal societal rules out the window
and those sorts of events always lead to pranks
some of them cruel
A neighbor I had growing up had two of her three black cats beaten and left to die on her front lawn one Halloween
oh man, that's horrible
|ヽ(･ ° ▿ζ° )ﾉ|
was
she able to save them?
she saved one!
the other the vet was pretty sure died within an hour of being left
at least it didn't suffer as long as the other one 
who i believe was permanently blinded in one eye?
who i believe was permanently blinded in one eye?
I see
that's certainly cruel
that was like, almost 20 years ago, so i don't remember specifics TOO well
I think some of it is people getting "drunk" off of the atmosphere
because Halloween night is usually perceived as the night when you can do anything
so you get wild parties and funky costumes, but also destruction
.... what the actual fuck.
...oh god
even if this is a 'hoax' there are plenty of assholes who will do this
but yeah, black cats have always been in danger on Halloween
i used to own a dark grey kitty, and she was an inside kitty but i was always paranoid that she'd get out on that day
D: D:
what areas do we need to pay more attention? and so, where? crazy!

seen this in facebook. I hope people do not try to kill any dog this halloween but I have been warning people to keep their dogs safe.
