Pitbulls URGH!

Last Thursday I went to put my trash out and the neighbor had his pitbull in the front yard.....with no leash. I? Was beyond pissed, so naturally I had to say something. By the end of our "conversation" which was me talking and him smirking I was shaking I was so angry. I could have slap that smirk right off his effing face. I told him that since we weren't going to be moving as soon as I had hoped that I could no longer stay quiet about the pitbull being off it's leash. I told him that someday he is not going to be able to catch the dog when he runs. At that very moment the dog rushed at me and he caught him. I raised my eyebrows and said simply "see". Then I told him that I was not going to call the MP's or housing THIS time but I was warning him that next time I would. I can not and will not take this kind of chance with my children. It's against the law and he will be held accountable from now on.

So fast forward to the next afternoon, Kale and I are IMing while he is at work. He casually mentions the neighbor had some SSG email one of the 1SG down in Cuba and that Kale had been "talked" to about me by his Commander. I was not happy, so mad in fact I was ready to be confrontational with the neighbor. Kale begged me not to and said he would clear this up. The next night he talked to the 1SG who was emailed and asked what was up. He said that this SSG who had left Cuba a couple of mths before (he thinks he's more important than he is and Kale says he's a POS) and complained that I was harassing the neighbor about his dog. *Yeah, cause talking to the three times when the dog is OFF the leash constitutes harassment*. The 1SG said he didn't know what the guy thought he could do, that A) they can only get Kale in trouble if I am doing something illegal and B) they agree with me 100% on this issue. The Commander had just misunderstood the situation and is now in full agreement with us. I was just so angry this weekend about this, I could hardly see straight. There is nothing that can officially be done to reprimand these two guys causing trouble, but they were both going to be yelled at.

Now I am just waiting to get pics and video of the damn thing off it's leash. Next time I see it I will be calling the police and housing. Which I already warned housing on Friday that I was angry and that they were letting the dog loose. Hopefully they will at least heed my warning and keep it on the leash.
