So sad

So Sad.

The cops should have shot the dog to death! Then arrest the owner.

My God...how horrific. Such a terrible AVOIDABLE situation. No amount of anything will bring that little girls father back...yet I hope there is someone that can be held accountable for this tragedy.

But what about the metoo movement he shouldn’t of saved his daughter,it required him to touch her?

PIT_BULL_TODDLER_ALERT_ !!🤢🤢🤢💯‼️DOG_GONE_WILD...

The father is a hero. Rest In peace.

When I walk with or without my dogs I always carry one of those whips like they use on racehorses. Now maybe will add pepper spray.

And he would do it again to save his daughter I’m sure..... RIP 🙏

Horrible.

And if I were a parent, i would give my life for my child too, what a world we live in..

🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

There is not enough Information to instantly kick someone else with blame, surely the animals owner is at fault for not watching the dog, the child's parent is at fault for not watching their kid, and the man acted selfless and it was too much for his heart, sad but true.

brave father

Raises the question. Do 'All Dogs' go to heaven? That poor child lost her dad! So sorry for that!

Pit bull

My heart goes out to the family. I am so sorry for your loss.

People that use their domesticated dogs to bully people have been around for a long time. Our police even train their dogs to bully and bite people that smoke marijuana. I've seen it happen.

RIP Hero!

He died of a heart attack after the attack. Not quite what is being insinuated for clicks

Some people don’t leash their dogs.

Charge the dog's owner with second-degree murder and multiple counts of assault.

Brave man! RIP

So sad 😥prayers for his family

Raccoon Family Tired Of Taking Care Of Rabid FatherMONTGOMERY, WV—Acknowledging that he has become a real burden on their foraging and nesting activities, a local raccoon family told reporters Tuesday that they are starting to get tired of taking care of their rabid father. “We do love him, but watching over him day in and day out really starts to wear on you, especially since his behavior’s just gotten so erratic,” said the raccoon’s son, explaining that it was exhausting to have someone there around the clock to wipe the froth from his mouth and make sure he doesn’t stray from their home range. “He always ends up lashing out at one of us, and just the other day, he thought one of our kits was a bird and tried to attack her. I get it—he’s 3 years old, and when you reach that advanced age, you start to lose it a little. But I’m not sure how much more of this we can take.” The raccoon went on to say that, while he was a little ashamed to admit it, maybe it would be best if his father wandered onto the highway and got hit by a car. Rabid mother you mean... Those trump kids are hilarious. ProperOpinion tough call

'My father was the first to negotiate with the Taliban''My father came back depressed and said there is no way to talk to them.' - The son of Afghan Mujahideen commander Ahmed Shah Massoud speaks to TRT World about his father's legacy and his own ambitions. lilymassoud His father together with few others such as rabbani. Sayyaf etc were the reason Afghanistan is in such shit today. This article is so out of touch with the reality in AFG. No one in AFG really cares about Massoud's son except the Panjshiris, who already had their shot at ruling AFG but failed miserably. ...and his father was also the first to negotiate with the Soviets, and then did it 8 more times to protect his valley. After Soviets retreated, Massoud held Asmai (television) mountain, and lobbed rockets into Kabul, along w/ HIG, Dostum, et al., to help kill 50K+ Afghans!!

They were well-meaning, I will say.” They also banned the sailors from attending That’s obscene to say someone was “well meaning” to try a thing like that. And I am not a fan of John McCain either. Trump's definition of 'well meaning' is messed up
