Of Pit Bulls and Pinheads...

There was a tragic event on Staten Island this past weekend, in which police found themselves obligated to shoot someones 'pet' pit bull terrier.

The story seems to be constantly evolving, as one side accuses the other of gross misconduct, and the other accuses it's opposite of being uncaring, unfeeling little dictators with guns, so I figure the truth must lie somewhere in the middle.

So far as I can tell, the general outline of this sordid tale goes something like this:

Some complete ignoramus decided to take her three pit bulls out for a walk in a public park. At least one of the animals was unleashed. As is common when multiple dogs are in such close proximity, a fight broke out among at least two of the animals, and at least one of them turned on it's owner who tried to break the fight up.

WOMAN SHOOTS AT 11-YEAR-OLD SEVEN TIMES...OVER CHICKENS

There's this here article in my local newspaper which cropped up the other day about a woman who opened fire on an 11-year-old girl who had carelessly left some sidewalk chalk close to her home.

Apparently, chickens don't like sidewalk chalk. I'm not certain if it really hurts them, or causes them some sort of emotional disturbance, but let's put that question aside for a moment.

I'm wondering why it is that someone this obviously insane is still walking the streets?

MAN PULLS GUN AT PARTY BECAUSE THERE WAS NO MORE CAKE

A Memphis, Tenn. man is behind bars after allegedly pulling a gun on the hostess of a child's birthday party after he and his children arrived late and found that the cake and ice cream were all gone.

Joseph Hayes, 48, got pretty upset when he learned his kids couldn't eat cake, so he decided to make the hostess eat lead. Hayes reportedly yelled at the host saying, "Y'all didn't save my kids no damn ice cream and cake!"

He then left the party, went back to his apartment, and returned with a small black handgun tucked in his pants.  He lifted up his shirt and told the hostess, "I ain't scared to go to jail, just take care of my kids." Huh?

The hostess then called the police and expressed that she was in fear of her life.

Police arrived and Hayes was arrested, but he insisted to police that he didn't have a gun, just an object that looked like one when tucked in his pants. o_O

Hayes was charged with aggravated assault and his bond set at $30,000.

Although he arrived late, maybe if he had RSVP'd, his children would've had cake and all of this could've been avoided.  Or maybe he should've arrived on time or at least a little earlier, I mean, I've given parties for my son before and I've attended parties given by others. When you are dealing with anything over 10 children, you kinda have a schedule that you follow religiously. So, if the schedule says 'ice cream and cake at 1 PM', you'd better believe that there will be ice cream and cake at one.

I wonder if he had a gift for the birthday kid and because there was no more cake he reneged on handing it over?

Shoot, I wonder a lot about this story but I must say, he had to really love his children to want to pop a cap in someone because they didn't get cake. I'm just saying...
