Tio Hardiman

Pit bull advocate, wife beater, failed Illinois gubernatorial candidate, anti-violence community activist, and Best Friends flunkie puppet - TIO HARDIMAN!

"Well, I'm not a convicted felon. I have no convictions in my background….But the thing is, I'm a good man. I've overcome a lot of obstacles in my personal life. And there's not one person in the entire world who doesn't have relationship issues. So, I'm not trying to be a perfect individual because I'm running for governor." from my fox chicago

Like pit bulls, Hardiman is just misunderstood and "desensitized".

"I was motivated to start the program in 2007 when I began to encounter more people abusing pit bull type dogs by fighting them. I always had a big heart for pit bulls because they’re some of the most misunderstood dogs in the world. Some people demonize pit bulls before they are even born. This upsets me. Growing up in the projects and witnessing acts of violence on a regular basis kind of desensitizes people." from stubbydog.org

Bree Walker

Bree Walker born Patricia Lynn Nelson on February 26, 1953, pictured on the left in the 1980's before her bizarre journey into the world of cosmetic surgery. The photo on the right was taken last week at the Orange County Sheriff where she was charged with driving under the influence. Walker's pit bull was with her at the time and was also taken into custody without incident.

Walker admits to having trouble saying no to booze and has been in rehab. I'd say by the looks of the amount of cosmetic surgery which actually made her LESS attractive, she has trouble with other addictions as well.

Vincent Girolamo

Big Vinny Girolamo 12.05.47 - 09.12.79

After the completion of his military service in 1966, Girolamo joined the Hell's Angels and became the sergeant-at-arms of the Manhattan chapter. He is responsible for the club's motto "When in Doubt, Knock 'em Out" and their insignia "Evil Force".

On September 21, 1977, 22 year old waitress/girlfriend Mary Ann Campbell died after Girolamo pushed her from the roof of a 6 story building. That night, the drunken Girolamo was also accused of attempting to rape two other members. Girolamo was charged with Campbell's murder but before he could stand trial, he died from an injury to his spleen after a dispute turned physical with Oakland Hell's Angel President Michael "Irish" O'Farrell.

Girolamo is featured prominently in this fascinating documentary about the outlaw biker gang. Hurricane Vinny enjoys third billing, right after Sonny Barger and Sandy Alexander.

Princess Anne
August 15, 1950 -

In 2001, the princess became the first senior member of the royal family to have a criminal record after she was convicted under the 1991 Dangerous Dog Act for the attack on two children in Windsor Great Park. In addition to this attack, Princess Anne's bull terriers attacked the maid, another dog at an outdoor event and one of the Queen's corgi's which resulted in the death of the royal dog. The Queen banished her daughter's bull terriers.

Steve Irwin, crocodile hunter

February 22, 1962 – September 4, 2006


The famous and now deceased australian wildlife expert and crocodile hunter known for his reckless theatrical behavior with crocodiles while holding his infant was also a pit bull owner.

While youtube will not allow video of pit bull puppies scrapping, they have no problem hosting the official death video of Steve Irwin.

Oscar Pistorius

South African athlete and murderer at home playing with his pit bulls.

November 22, 1986 -

The olympian/paralympian gold/silver medal winner, Oscar Pistorius, aka The Blade Runner, was charged with premeditated murder in August for the St Valentines Day Massacre of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.  More gun charges were added in November.

And the hybristophiliacs are already starting to swoon.

From a 2011 Telegraph article on the The Blade Runner:
In the off-season he lives in a house he built two years ago on a private estate on the outskirts of Pretoria. He lives alone, with three dogs – Capone, a Jack Russell terrier, Silo, an American pit bull, and Enzo, a bull terrier. Silo has chewed her way through most of the house, he says, including a couple of pairs of prosthetic legs. 'It's a madhouse, but they all love to come running with me.' 

I wonder why Capone is missing from this photo. Perhaps Capone the Jack Russell started something and Silo the APBT finished it?

Taiwan Jones

Oakland Raider cornerback Taiwan Jones was walking his two pit bull mixes, apparently without leashes, when they rushed 12 yr old Chula, killing her during her routine evening walk. Chula's 50 yr old owner is traumatized. Jones' killers are in quarantine during AC's investigation. Meanwhile, Jones' agent released the following the statement
"It was a tragic accident and he feels terrible about it. It's never happened before. He's sick over this, no question."

Tragic accident or Depraved Indifference?

RIP Chula

Plaxico Burress

UPDATE!
Plaxico Burress is being sued, AGAIN. The Barney Fife of the NFL is in trouble this time for the damage done by his pit bulldog during a pit wilding episode. Burress' neighbor was mauled while taking a walk in her neighborhood last May. The victim claimed that "she suffered serious injuries to her head, body, and limbs and that she suffered severe pain and mental anguish" as a result of his negligence. Black Sports On Line is siding with the convicted felon, claiming this is just a money grab.

Plaxico Burress was released from prison June 6, 2010 after serving almost 2 years for gun possession and reckless endangerment. In November 2009, the proud pit bull owner was illegally armed while clubbing in New York. When the gun started to slip, he reached for it and shot himself. Burress' home in New Jersey was searched a month later. The police found a 9mm, a rifle, ammo and the clothes he wore during his famous OOPS moment.

Previous legal troubles

Two domestic distance calls resulted in a temporary restraining orders.

Plaxico Burress has been named in at least 9 civil lawsuits since he joined the NFL in 2000. My favorite was the December 2008 car accident. Burress rear ended another car with his $140,000 Mercedes Benz. Burress had no insurance, it had been canceled 3 days prior to the accident for failing to pay the premium.

Bryce Brown

The 22 year old has been the running back for the Philadelphia Eagles since 2012. In 2008, Brown received the Hall Trophy for most outstanding high school football player and a couple other awards  before the Eagles drafted him to play alongside MICHAEL VICK.

On May 21st, a rural property in Fall Creek, Wisconsin was raided and 27 dogs were seized. The property (Northland Pits at E19252 Scenic Drive) is owned by JOSEPH A SUDBRINK. A female and her 7 puppies were returned to BROWN, while the remaining dogs are still in custody. SUDBRINK was charged with mistreating animals and operating as a dog breeder without a license. A criminal investigation is ongoing.

In addition to scarring, indicative of fighting and "yard accidents", some of the dogs also had ringworm and possibly other skin issues and were living in substandard housing. SUDBRINK had his vet examine the dogs, who are in the care of Eau Claire County Humane. The vet found the pit bulldogs had "dirty ears" and demanded they be returned before they die from a lethal dose of ear wax.

Brown claims to engage in "extreme agility" and posted a video. A quick look at his extensive list of facebook "friends" reveals pit bulldog apologists like SCOT E DOWD and an assortment of dog fighting scum from around the world.

Mark and Claudia Kelly

Apparently it is easier to put a man on the moon than to educate people about the dangers of gripping dogs or hold them responsible for the mayhem their mutant grippers create.

Claudia Kelly and Shiner

During a family vacation on Laguna Beach, the gripper belonging to CLAUDIA KELLY, daughter of astronaut MARK KELLY and stepdaughter of Gabrielle Giffords, over powered her in order to attack a baby sea lion on the beach. CLAUDIA and two other women halfheartedly worked to free the federally protected marine mammal from the gripper's locked jaws while men from above videotaped the mayhem and instructed her to hold her ugly dog under water to get it to release. The incensed princess promptly fired back "what the fuck".

Daddy to the rescue
Astronaut MARK KELLY intervened and shook the ugly mutant off the dead seal and high tailed it out of there, while another woman consoled his blubbering princess, all caught on video. Law enforcement failed to issue any citations to the traumatized little princess and her celebrity dad citing, "It was legal for her to have the dog on the beach this time of year, and she did have it leashed. It was so strong that it pulled free of her when it saw the sea lion." Capt. Jason Kravetz

Like the border collie that herds ants, this purpose bred dog will exercise its gripping DNA on whatever is handy, there is nothing accidental about it.


Daddy and Shiner on the Walk of Shame

MARK KELLY and Gabrielle Giffords are behind the non-profit americans for responsible solutions calling for a tightening of gun laws while endangering our public beaches with vicious gripping dogs.

George Herman Ruth Jr aka Babe Ruth aka "the Bambino" aka "the Sultan of Swat"

The Bambino learned the hard way about the danger of
pit bulls and switched to a watered down pit fighter.

February 6, 1895 - August 16, 1948

Babe Ruth is considered by many to be the greatest baseball player of all time but few realize that The Babe is also found among the ranks of famous pit bull owners. The Babe's pit bull hobby didn't last long. He retired from pit bull ownership when he learned the hard way that it was much harder to keep pit bulls safely contained on his property than it was to knock the ball out of the park.

“The farm definitely had become more nuisance than nirvana.  An adventure raising chickens had fallen apart when the chickens died.  A second adventure, raising pit bulls was disbanded when one of the dogs got out of its pen and attacked and killed a neighbor’s cow.”

page195 The Big Bam: The Life and Times of Babe Ruth, Leigh Montville

"Ruth used to tell his wife he was going fishing, then come home tipsy, carrying a store-bought fish still wrapped in paper. The day his neighbor Henry Ford (who wanted to build an industrial village in town) complained that Ruth's pit bulls had killed his chickens, Ruth went to the barn, and "all Dorothy heard was shotgun blasts as he killed every dog."

Tweaker Michael Brandon

WARNING: some of these links are x-rated.

 Born Michael Phillips February 9, 1965

The escort/porn star Michael Brandon fits right in with the rest of the counterculture that gravitates to fighting dogs. Brandon is a felon and a former drug addict/drug pusher. His drugs of choice: crystal meth, speed, ecstasy.


"He did a sizzling strip tease and jack-off scene, working it out on a weight bench. He said he is training to be a dog whisperer. He got his first pit bull at age 19 and has been defending the much maligned species ever since. He is proud to announce he will be featured (completely out as a gay porn actor) in a piece on pit bulls to be broadcast on Animal Planet channel, because they want to get a little edgier."

Just how EDGY does Animal Planet want to go?


Trivia
Brandon is the only porn star to win "performer of the year" at the Gay VN Awards. Much of the credit goes to Monster.
Monster is Brandon's pet name for his penis.
Monster has his own fan club.
Brandon has his own subdivision in adult film studio Raging Stallion Studios called Monster Bang.

Buster Brown

Buster Brown

Pit Nutter Mission statement established in 1903. It's time for a new one guys! :-)

Outcault is probably laughing in his grave at how accurately his depiction of pit bull owners was and would still be 100 years later.

Buster Brown, the pit bull owning cartoon created by R. F. Outcault in 1903. Nutters wear this famous pit bull as a badge of honor but they fail to realize that Tige is no Lassie or Rin Tin Tin. In fact, Tige's primary contribution to the comic seems to be Buster's partner in mayhem.

Tige bites the doctor
Tige bites policeman
Tige bites the skipper
Tige bites man
Tige mayhem
Tige biting burglar
Tige bites Buster when he is forced to give Auntie a kiss
Tige creates mayhem while chasing a cat
Tige gets jealous when Buster fawns over a goat
And my personal favorite, Tige shows his true racist colors:
Tige bites the balloon man, he doesn't like "dagos".
