Okay, the Pit Bull hysteria is really getting out of hand. We really need a full-fledged, national pit bull education campaign.

LA MARQUE, Texas — A police officer wounded a woman accidentally while trying to shoot a pit bull she saw jumping on a group of people.
The incident happened about 7:15 p.m. Wednesday in a residential neighborhood in La Marque, 35 miles southeast of Houston.
Witnesses say a passing officer spotted what she thought was a pit bull attack but, in reality, was the dog playing with a two people.
The witnesses say the woman playing with the dog shouted, prompting the officer to get out of her car and shoot at the animal. A bullet fragment ricocheted off the street and wounded a woman standing nearby in the chest.
The woman was taken to Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston. Police say both she and the wounded dog are expected to recover. The case will be presented to a grand jury.
WTH! This officer needs some serious training. 1st, to shoot impulsively; and 2nd, well, I think number one says it all.
I'd love to be on that jury.
I guess is proof that American policemen are more dangerous than pit bulls.

until the cops realize that pit bulls are a safer and better dog than most breeds they will continue to shoot people
