BOSSIER CITY, La. (AP) -- A pit bull puppy chewed off four of a baby girl's toes while the child's parents slept, police here said Monday. The parents were booked on charges of child desertion and criminal negligence and were being held in the Bossier Parish Jail pending an initial court appearance.

are you trying to antagonize Rob?

 

[Damocles]

What kind of parent could sleep through that?

Yep

That was the only reason for posting this. I thought it a bit to tobyesque to suit me, but the Pit bull thing clinched it.

What kind of parent could sleep through that?

I guess that is what the local officials thought as well, and is why they are up on charges.

 

[uscitizen]

And yes I mispelled gnaws in the title. That is what I get for starting the thread while on a conference call...

I saw where a vet said it would have taken a long time for this puppy to have done this...

My bet the parents were whacked out on drugs.

Why drugs ? why not booze ?

 

[Jarod]

Why drugs ? why not booze ?

Booze are a drug.

 

[uscitizen]

Well the Drug word is assumed to be illegal and booze is not. Quite a difference there. Now if I could go to the store and buy a pack of aucapulco gold then it would be the same now wouldn't it ?

 

[Jarod]

Regardless of legality I think alchole is a drug.

 

[uscitizen]

Correct, and by the govts own figures, if you exclude the cost of the DEA, alcohol costs to our country is higher than all illegal drug use combined.

I knew a guy who was a recovering Heroin and Alcohol addict. He told me the Alcohol was much harder to quit than the Heroin.. and not because it was legal.

 

[uscitizen]

And Pot is definately easier to quit than tobacco.

 

[Damocles]

HooooooBoy! You are NOT kidding.

 

[Jarod]

So why is pot illegal?

Rhetorical question because I know the answer.

Rhetorical question because I know the answer.

Because it is easily grown in the home and therefore difficult to tax.

Because it is easily grown in the home and therefore difficult to tax.

And because it makes good rope and paper.... something rich folks had already invested in but using wood products...

And because it was linked to blacks, back to the old prejudice thing....
