Just gonna rant for a bit, 'kay?

So.
A while ago, there was this video that got pretty famous in Sweden, of a kid getting dragged around by a dog of the breed "Rottweiler".
Everyone demanded the dog to be put down. Why? Because people are retards, that's why!
First I'm gonna talk about Rottweilers:

Y'all se this bitch? This is one of our dogs: Anni. She's three years old, I bet she weighs around 50 kg. She's VERY large for a she-Rottweiler. And she's the biggest pansy known to world.
Rottweilers, if raised properly, is one of the "best" dog breeds in the world. They're loyal, brave, beautiful (yet drooly), intelligent, loves to work and they seem to believe that they're pocket sized because Rottweilers are one of the biggest, cuddliest lap-dogs ever. You sit in our couch and you'll be accompanied by a 50 kg Rotty bitch within a few seconds.
However, they've got a VERY high need of psychological, physical and mental stimulation. Which make them into the wrong type of dog to keep in a small apartment in the middle of a city.
Rotties are also VERY easy to switch on to "play mode".

Now, I'll show you the video I was talking about. However, if I were you I'd lower the volume on your speakers/headphones, because the little drama queen screams like he's getting anally raped by a grizzly bear.

Now, I bet you see a horrible, psychotic murdercreature spawned from Hell. What I see, as an Animal Welfare student who focuses on dogs and dog-psychology (and can understand animals better than humans), is a young, but poorly raised, Rottweiler fully engaged in play mode.
The body language of the dog is IDENTICAL to when I play around with Anni. When we play, she grabs my arm and growls as she's trying to drag me around. And we're both having the time of our life. One time we started to wrestle in the middle of the bus-central, and the guards had to ask us to leave since some fucking bitch called the cops because she "was scared off my aggressive dog". Sure, I was in a public area, but I'd rather keep my dog occupied instead of going into "guarding mode", and give every dog she sees the death-glare.
The behavior the Rotty shows is a normal play-behavior for Rottweilers. They're very loud and rough when they play with each other, when Anni plays with her boyfriend, it sounds like their trying to maul each other. And since, judging from the mental health test the dog was forced to take after the incident, this dog is very poorly raised so he doesn't understand that he can't play with humans the same way he (or she) plays with other Rotties.
There's a LOT of things that makes me pissed off in this case, but not so much concerning the dog. For instance, you guys see the man walking the dog (he didn't own the dog, he was just walking it)? He's just walking away.
WHAT the actual FUCK, dude?! NOT okay, bro! NOT OKAY!
And second: how come no one's wondering what happened BEFORE  the video was shot? At least I haven't hear anything...
 Knowing how easily riled up Rotties are (especially young Rotties), the kid must've done something that put the dog in play mode.  I'm not saying that the kid did something wrong, but I'm having a hard time believing that the dog just lashed out randomly at a kid.
Besides, in that dogs eyes that kid is nothing but a puppy. And puppies are to dogs what cows are to Indians: sacred. There's a law amongst dogs that you DON'T hurt a puppy. You can scold it if necessary, but you NEVER attack a puppy with an intent to hurt it. Dogs that actually attack puppies do exist, but then I actually think that the dog in question should be put down. For it's own good! A dog that is so violent that it attacks puppies is clearly not well. I know someone who has a dog who actually is pretty aggressive, both to humans and dogs (including our neighbours puppy). And she's a white German Sheppard.
However, the mental health test this Rottweiler took said: "It's a good dog, but it need to be raised better".
Anyway, back to the issue:
People were basically SCREAMING after this video got out: "Put the dog down!" "This kind of dog shouldn't be allowed to exist!" "This is a fighting dog!"
... Fighting dog? Bitch please, a fighting dog is a dog that has been trained to attack other dogs, doesn't matter what breed it is. Rottweilers, Tosa and Dobermann are just as common as German Sheppards and Terriers. Hell, I bet they even use Chihuahuas! And besides, dog fights are NOT okay and does NOT reflect over a "figthing dog"s REAL nature! That's a perfect example of humanitys greed, and it's will to ruin lives just for the sake of money and for fun. Even though I fail to see the fun in it...
I get soooooo royally pissed off when people use the term "fighting dog". I know many consider it a legit group of dogs, since it's been in history for thousands of years and there ARE breeds who were created just for this purpose (A little quick note, Rottweilers doesn't belong in that group, Rottweiler belongs to the group "livestock guardians", along with Boxer. And they're still called fighting dogs. Strange, huh?). But it's still not right to call them fighting dogs.
Luckily, what I know at least, this dog is still alive and well. I hope her/his owners have gotten their thumbs out of their asses and teach this dog that humans are not like dogs. We are weaker than they and much frailer. We don't play by biting each other (except for the ones with weird fetishes).
We used to live in a suburban area in a city called "Kungälv" when Anni was a puppy. Our neighbours were so anti-Rotty that some even build fences around their homes JUST because we got a dog breed who just happens to have a bad reputation. Man, they pissed me off.
But now we live on a farm in the middle of nowhere near a city called "Borås". Thank God people aren't as paranoid here as they were in Kungälv.
However, there's one thing I just gotta say about Anni, before anyone gets the picture that she is a 100% angel dog who wouldn't hurt a fly: due to an unfortunate events that occurred in Kungälv, because of the peoples paranoia, she is now terrified of small dogs. And how does she meet them? Yes. She could be aggressive towards small dogs and some other bitches. But that's just because she's afraid of them, at least of the little ones. It's a real pity, because she actually is one of the kindest, nicest and silliest dogs I've ever met. She HAS gotten along with other Rottweiler bitches and some small dogs. But mostly she goes with the "I-better-bite-them-first-or-they-will-bite-me" attitude.
Anyway, the point I'm futily trying to make here is: Rottweilers are NOT murderous Hellbeasts that deserves to be extinct. There's nothing wrong with the Rottweiler from the clip, however the man who walked him/her deserves to have lego-blocks strapped to his feets for at least a month. Just walking away like that only builds up the Rottweilers already poor reputation.
Stop blaming the wrong end of the leash.
There are no bad dogs, only bad owners.

Sorry for all the cussing and bad words. Just wanted to vent my anger a bit here, b'cuz it's been bugging me for WEEKS! And the fact that they're referring this event to as a "Rottweiler attack" is just making me even more pissed.
I bet it wouldn't have been so dangerous if the dog in question had been a Terrier, or a Golden Retriever or something...
Oh, and the kid was unharmed, but scared. That should tell us something, right?
