MaliDayimani You should have to be able to prove that a dog will attack for nothing, again the eff desperately need access to homes, its Christmas time and parties are expensive

MaliDayimani Can you remember when great white sharks attacked people in the 80's? suddenly all great whites had to go, this is human stupidy again, those dogs prevent low caliber individuals from the eff coming onto our property, when the pitbulls go ill replace with other big dogs

MaliDayimani They should be abolished for good,I heard there's another child that has been attacked

MaliDayimani And how about government corruption 🤔 with our naked eyes

MaliDayimani How can we rob houses if people are allowed to have pitbulls in their yards?

MaliDayimani I do so wish politicial parties cared this much about their electorate.

MaliDayimani We could also ban eff and cosatu.

MaliDayimani Only because it's black people getting bitten. If they were white there would have been no word. But whites are also being bitten. Not only by pitties but by all dogs. Get a life and leave the dogs alone. It's not the dog's fault, it's the humans who know nothing...

MaliDayimani But that guy from EFF is against the ban🤔

MaliDayimani shame😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭dont ban pitbulls!!!

MaliDayimani So the thieves can rob and murder us safely? We see you.

MaliDayimani

MaliDayimani That thing cant differentiate a real threat or a harmless toddler. It just kills

MaliDayimani Can they back calls to fight drug lords

MaliDayimani We are not safe in SA,if I get rid of my Pitbull,I'm sure my house will be targeted by thugs because so far,no chancers

MaliDayimani People kill more people...yet the police fail to protect the citizens.

MaliDayimani Opinion from the peanut gallery.

MaliDayimani Who is more dangerous? Pitbulls or humans?

MaliDayimani I don't see a soul in the face of the picture of this pit bull. Who is it meant to maul really? A good law would result in all of them sent to game reserves like the Kruger where they can compete with siblings such as lions for pray.

MaliDayimani But realists and murderers are free

MaliDayimani Argh... please! Ban the criminals and thiefs from SA NOT the dogs 😑 The fault once again is with the human race here, not the animal race. leaveourpittbulls wakeup banmurders banrapist bancorruption Pitbulls

MaliDayimani It's people not the dogs!

MaliDayimani helenzille SAHRCommission Our_DA afriforum zondo karynmaughan and their ilk will all oppose this.

MaliDayimani They must be banned in the townships only

MaliDayimani I have no love for Pitbulls as a breed, but statistically, you have a bigger chance of being killed by a COSATU or EFF supporter. We should ban those too if Pitbulls are going to be banned

MaliDayimani Only when the animals are mistreated and abused by incapable as well as cruel owners, from this kind of abuse any dog or animal would respond in the same manner of aggression. I know this because I have had many Pitbulls, of which none have ever shown aggression to anyone.

MaliDayimani That's fucked not all pit bulls are bad

MaliDayimani Go add their voice to fix potholes, Eskom and the justice system before calling for a ban for a dog. As usual USELESS!!

MaliDayimani I grew up with pitbulls - 99,9% of the time they are lovely dogs, but on the rare instance that they lose their cool they are as dangerous and unpredictable as a grenade in a child's hands. Never had one as an adult, coz deep down I know how dangerous they are. REALLY DANGEROUS

MaliDayimani What the pitbulls did this year is done in a week in our townships... Whatever agenda they wanna prove, so be, it's not like anything's gonna change at all

MaliDayimani Leave the dogs alone and go after the damn people. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

MaliDayimani Seriously... they should be banned! It is not the breed! They need to wake up! It is the people who mistreat, abuse, and incorrectly train the dogs to fight. It is people who taunt and tease the dogs. First it was german shepherds, then it was Rottweilers, then Dobermanns! 🤬🤬

MaliDayimani Have to ask why political parties are suddenly interested in this matter. Seems odd that this is a priority for them when another 7000 people have been murdered.

MaliDayimani People are killing each other more than pitbulls do i need their voices also there

MaliDayimani News24 and everyone else, I want out of the next 5 dog attacks to be notified and sent pictures of each of the accused K9’s and I will come forward and pay for DNA testing, so that we can identify the breed!

MaliDayimani EFF once again proving that they dont know anything of anything in this world. Useless bunch all together !

MaliDayimani will they also add their voices to the owners to be prosecuted for raising these dogs for specifically dog fighting & for owners to be prosecuted for animal cruelty? No because for them it is money making game they dont care of innocent dogs being murdered.

MaliDayimani So now Pitbulls have become a political issue?!

MaliDayimani The Pavement Dancers haven't a clue what the are talking about. ALL of these attacks have been in Townships. This is the common denominator - I suggest you start investigating WHY.?

MaliDayimani One thing I agree on with the EFF. Follow the lead of these countries. Ban them.
