The wanna be gangstaz shooting each other is fine, but leave the pooches out of it man!
Human life is human life. Do you see any “wannabe” return to this realm? Have some remorse, or you could be next…never know.
Sorry but no, if you choose that type of life and play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. The reality is, the world is better off without some people. Also, a dog life is a dog life (I think, not really sure what you’re on about tbh).
Cayman seems to want to provide ever-expanding use cases for the ubiquitous $99 Ring camera. We might need to finally put one in the AMZN cart.
Was the dog attacking?
Yes, I always carry an illegal and loaded gun at 3am in case of such an eventuality.
West bay wannabe gangstas have their pit bulls as some form of “don’t mess with me” I’m a big man message.
These dogs are vicious and illegal attack breeds , they’re not your licky lovable tail wagging family pooches.
Does justify killing one, does it? If it was defending its territory, that is its job. I don’t know what kind of dog it was, do you? The few pit bulls I have been acquainted with are loveable tail wagging to their family (the core pack) and those whom the dog perceives as being greeted in a friendly manner.
If some dirtbag was making an assault on the premises, the dog should be buried with honours, in the same way as a venerated family member. imvfho.
“… loveable tail wagging to their family…”
You have got to be kidding. pit has a “kill switch” or “seeing red.” He can turn on a dime, he is capable of attack.
I really don’t think you have ever truly known one of them, just seen them, or perhaps have be warned by them. JMFHO.
Painting with a broad brush, eh? Millions of pit bulls are great family pets and can be the sweetest dogs ever.
Just like humans, aggressive and violent behavior can be instilled in them through their owners.
Why isn’t the Department of Agriculture enforcing rules on pit bulls? Are they not imported?
There’s a guy who hangs out at the old Spanish Bay reef in WB. The dog is massive and vicious, keeps attacking other dogs and it’s uncaring owner watches proudly.
Reports to police have resulted in No action.
Guess they’re scared of dog and uncouth owner.
Seems not a living thing is safe in the Wild Wild West☹️
At 3 in the morning I’ve often wanted to get up and shoot the dogs that are barking all bloody night.
And the owners who allow it.
‘Owners’ in the loosest possible meaning of the word, you mean. Your order is wrong, too. XXXX, then take the dog to a proper owner who would train it properly/have it indoors.
If you know more about the dog and the owners than we do, you should be contacting the RCIPS. Maybe something you know will help. If you don’t know more than we do, then I would — with all due respect — invite you to STFU, because your speculations don’t help anything.
God bless. If it is right that He do so.
Sleep tight in jail!
So the cops didn’t canvass the area and knock on doors? Place a unit in the area for a stakeout? Check registered gun owners?
Classic RCIPS.
They’re too busy right now using their expertise and dealing with Anguilla’s gang situation 🙃😂😂
I agree it is those damn law abiding registered gun owners causing trouble again!
To say nothing of the stakeout after the event.
Plenty lawful gun owners kill worldwide by the minute.
Not sure where the article states this?
What is going on in Cayman…
Same thing as everywhere else in the world….its called CRIME.
Aren’t you a smarty pants, impressive intelligence!
Wasn’t a question.
Outrageous and disgusting! Poor animal just doing his job of protecting his yard from criminal home invader.
RCIPS, please get someone for this!
Or some aspiring sociapath simply chose to kill.
