Zupf: Pit Bull Attack Victim, Brenda Hill, Shares Her Attack Story
Indianapolis, IN - Video artist Zupf has recorded the bedside interview of Brenda Hill. You may have already seen this video while reading the related Indy Star article. One day though, this article and it's video will go offline. For documentation and access purposes, the combination of Zupf and DogsBite.org ensures that Brenda Hill's story will remain alive and accessible by all Internet users. In the transcript, we've emphasized the phrase spoken by Hill that shows why pit bulls must be regulated.Transcript of Brenda Hill:
"Please send someone to help me. Please send someone to help me. 'Cause they was eating me, and they were eating me while I was saying that. I couldn't protect myself. I just took the pain -- and the pain was bad. They gnaw with their teeth and they just vicious, like they want to just eat me up. That's the way they looked, their expression. It was just so frightening. I was so scared. I've never been so scared.
I was going to take my trash out on Sunday, and I think it was about 5 o'clock. I had been debating whether I was going to take the trash out. Because I know the dogs and they'd be out there, they'd go in the trash where you take your trash and have it all over everything. So I said well, I got some ammonia, because they don't mess with you if you put ammonia on the bag.
They came around in the back of my house so fast, just jumped on the porch and just pulled my leg, my pants, just pulled me on down. Then they just started eating on my hand. Then they did my legs and my arms. This one's bad, they got this leg really bad. Then I seen all that blood because I take Coumadin, that's a blood thinner. I seen all that blood -- I just had it. I mean that yard was full of blood. It was like a nightmare."
It's not just children and senior citizens that cannot protect themselves from a tenacious pit bull attack -- police officers, animal control officers, US Marshalls and firefighters cannot either without serious weaponry.

Meanwhile failed PACCA misfit announces he will adopt out more Pit Bulls despite the astounding bite totals they inflict on the population.

I think I have this scene figured out.
Legislator (s) propose regulations because the public is suffering from pit bulls.
They get deluged with crap from selfish, middle class breeders like the AKC, and their more "cleaned up" dog fighter breeder pals with the law licenses or master's degrees (many from out of state)
The poor, who suffer the most from pit bull attacks and the pit bull problem, have no voice.
Legislator(s) cater to the loudmouth, bullying middle class breeders, and the poor get stiffed.
Pit bulls attacks increase among the poor.
These legislators need to get their feet held to the fire for giving in to a bunch of selfish, tax cheating, AKCoids and their related ilk.

We need to stop asking the question of how to stop killing the pits and ask the the question how do we stop the pits from killing our children and elderly.
Continuing to focus on saving the pits distracts from saving people from them. Since when do we place the life of an animal above the life of a child? Since the advent of the No Kill Equation.

The ammonia didn't work. She was already afraid of these dogs and knew that taking out the trash might mean having to interact with them -- The dogs must have FREQUENTLY gotten loose from their owner's property. This man deserves hardcore jail time. Indiana, it's TIME for a felony dog attack law.

The Pit perp was in court yesterday...These two Level 5 Maulers had a litter of pups. Judgie Wudgie ordered them to be placed with another individual and NOT be destroyed. These Maulspawn will be proliferated onto the community. No comment from Indy Pit Crew.....

I wonder what the stud fee will be for the Lee Carroll Level 5 bloodline pups that were just placed.
C'mon pit bull community, stop acting like children and police your own breed!
