O.K., so do we need forums for Tasers and pit bulls?!
Edited on Thu Nov-22-07 10:14 PM by UTUSN
Let me just say that every incident on certain topics don't (doesn't) need heaving, revolutionary, end-of-the-earth whatever (attention). (I should stop here.)


I love dogs. I believe that the most WILD of them is loveable and was mistreated by a-hole owners into unspeakable mayhem.


And I don't "get" the Taser issue. I'm sure I will be educated SOON!1


But my point was (is), does every Tase (or is it "TASE") and pit bull item require our fullest attention here in GD?!1

Pit bulls are animals.

6. Pit Bull v. Taser - who would prevail?
Hmmm... pit bulls cannot shock you into submission, however a taser cannot eat your arm.

Wish I had some weed to smoke - I'd have an answer for you...:crazy:;)

Tase and pit bull threads. Why is that a "personal problem" vis a vis the big picture of big deals in the big universe of big deals?!1


So, you want to see every, SINGLE incident of Tasing and pit bull maulings, from any and ALL corners of the world, that can possibly be posted?!1 Is that a "personal problem" (of yours)?!1



Actually, your needs would be met by FORUMS for those topics, since you could ingest them uninhibitedly and insatiably without being distracted by, oh, political topics and such.

12. Lexicon: Tase, TASE, Taze, or TAZE
Edited on Thu Nov-22-07 10:45 PM by UTUSN
Since this will be an interminable addition to our jargon, let's get the word (acronym) down pat.

The Wikipedia says it is an acronym, therefore ought to be all caps, "TASE," although its own article uses "Tase" just as often. So it's "TASE".

Gawsh, it's been around since '69?!1
