This is a serious question to ponder. The comparison is illuminating and apt.
Dogs are meant to be good and faithful companions to humans. It is widely understood that there is no such thing as a "bad breed" of dogs, but that abuse turns a particularly strong and potential fierce breed into killers and maulers. Pit bulls as a breed are a danger because they have been bred to be incredibly strong, but being strong does not doom them to be killers. When they are abused into becoming killers, or they are in situations that trigger an ancestral or primal hunt/shake urge, they are an ultimate dangerous weapon.
Likewise with humans. Humans were meant to be strong and resourceful, so they could survive, raise families, prosper, better themselves and their communities. But we have a generation of baby killers. I can't put it any nicer way than that blunt expression. I have just read the umpteenth article about a man beating the shit out of a tiny little toddler, the son of his "girlfriend." Men and women have become savages the likes of which I never thought they would reach. In front of my very eyes I have seen society change from a time when even the gruffest man (or boy) and even the most stressed woman (or girl) would become tender and caring around a baby to this:
Girls have unwanted babies in toilets and let them drown, flush them, smother or hurl them out of windows.
Mothers kill their own children left and right and have a litany of excuses.
Men beat and kill babies and toddlers at a hair trigger of rage over something as normal as the baby being hungry, crying, or going in his or her diaper.
Men rape newborn infants and any age they can get their hands on, including their own babies.
Babies are "disciplined" when they are unable to even comprehend it because anyone with a brain who wasn't a UFO X file defect moron would know that babies are "doing their job" when they cry, have to defecate, and when they need attention and love.
Discipline consists of whatever sick torture a video game cretin drug using UFO X file moron, male or female, can think of like scalding babies in hot water to peel their flesh off, forcing them to eat crap or toxins, finding new and unusual things to beat them with, kicking and punching them (what a big hero it is who takes on a crying baby and beats it to death).
It is unbelievable what has happened to this society. Just as a pit bull puppy trained on "bait" becomes a killing machine (and even the pit bulls resist for a long time as they are after all, dogs that want to be companions and loved) so does too many of this society who have obviously grown up unable to have a tender feeling in their heart for anyone, especially the helpless.
But what do you expect of a society where the leaders of morality, the women, think it is OK to pluck babies from their womb and have them torn apart and discarded in abortion? It used to be that if a child was born out of wedlock, the baby was either adopted or the boy stepped up and became a man about it, whether he wanted to or not. This is how many of our parents generation grew up, by becoming a father before they were ready, but by becoming a father they learned to be a man and they learned how to love those that depend on them. They had role models because they grew up in intact families with many siblings, grandparents and extended family. Now too many kids are raised like fatherless curs, and I'm sorry I cannot be more gentle about my phrasing. And who let this happen? Women who lowered their standards.
Rumor has it that my grandmother became pregnant before she married. This was would be in the late 1800's. The difference is that she was "with" the man she intended to marry, so they did and she became a great mother of three children, one of them my father. Even hanky panky was done with the recognition that if a baby resulted the baby would be born and loved in a normal family atmosphere. That's how it's been and this is what human society was supposed to evolve toward, not away from. The violence by many young men who have grown up as curs and the enabling of women who are capable of equal violence against their own flesh is appalling. I really do not know what will happen if this does not change pronto.
