5thElement Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Just seen this on the news... An 11-year-boy has died after being shot in the neck in the Croxteth area of Liverpool, police said. The incident happened shortly after 1930 BST in the car park of the Fir Tree public house on Fir Tree Drive. A witness said the victim was with two other boys when someone rode past on a bicycle and fired three shots, one of which hit the boy. He was rushed to Alder Hey Hospital but police later confirmed that he had died from his injuries. Officers are at the scene and police are treating the shooting as a major incident. No-one has yet been arrested in connection with the shooting. A spokesman for North West Ambulance Service said: "We treated an 11-year-old with serious gunshot wounds." He added a bullet had hit the boy in his neck leaving him in a critical condition. The boy was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/6959562.stm Link to post Share on other sites

This is the fault of the owner not the breed of dog. Your statement is along the same lines of something I read on another board I frequent 'black people are just naturally criminals'. Watch with your vicious generalisations there Guzzi. Link to post Share on other sites
Spedz Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Wait this is in liver pool isn't it? Doesn't ANYONE remember the say'You can't polish shi....... Even with the rejuvination project that's going on there's always will be 'gangstas' even in mosside there's shootings that is happening. Also while the leader of the conservative is mislabeling Anarchy with actually just kids/idoits on the streets. so in essence while party leaders/members sensatialise like the media. *beep* like this is DRASTIC.

GuzziHero Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 No, they arent like any human, personality wise. They can turn without warning or previous signs of anything being wrong. I know someone who had a pittbull until it just decided to attack and kill a neighbours dog. Now he wants them all destroyed, too. Link to post Share on other sites

GuzziHero Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 But it seems pretty routine with those species of dog bred as fighting dogs. And I DONT appreciate your ###### poor attempt to call me a racist. Dont do that again. Link to post Share on other sites
Cyber Soldier Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I didn't mean it to come across as an attack accusing you of racism. I meant it as an attack on sweeping generalisations like something being bad by nature rather than external influences. I apologise. It is not routine. The fact that they were once bred as fighting dogs is neither here nor there (dobermans are hunting dogs anyway). You will find that most of these dogs that maul people are trained to be aggressive by their owner as some form of status symbol (not saying that's what your friend did). Edit: spelling Link to post Share on other sites
Spedz Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 TBH you two, it's the fundamental argue between Psycolagists and sociolagists. (Spelling on both please) Is it nature or nurture? TBH I believe it's both, that their are breeds of dogs (like there are some humans to others) that are more naturally aggresive then others. But at the same time if that animal/human has been brought up in an 'aggresive' back ground then they themself will become aggresive. [edit] Also it's the same with spelling. Seeming it took me 3 years what an average 16 year old should of done >: / Link to post Share on other sites
Surreel Big Fish Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I am going to back Cyber Solder up here on this. It is how you bring the dog up. I had a Rottweiler from a puppy and it was the nicest, most pleasant dog you could hope to own. it would even play with my baby sister. Link to post Share on other sites

sekiryu Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Every news network is full of *beep*, really. You just have to find the one that has less of it. One thing I don't get about the media, is that they're in it for the money, not the truth of the story. So, if they're in it for the money, then who pays them? I sure as hell don't.
