    I thought Rex, the Pied Piper of Pit Bulls, got rid of all the pitties in Lancaster when he declared War on Gangs. That was after his War on Section 8 which cost the taxpayers several million dollars.

    Everytime Rex declares war on something, the opposite happens. Maybe he should declare war on homeless shelters and then it would solve the homeless problem.

      Hopefully the dog owner didn’t start the altercation. However the dog will probably get sentenced to death either way.
