The sex of the victims is irrelevant. What matters is that;

1: In Vid #1, the victim was an experienced Animal Control officer, trained and equipped to deal with viscous animals, and she was still savaged by the dog in question. Likewise, the same dog had also mauled a grown man and his daughter immediately prior to the attack on the Animal Control officer, which is why Animal Control was called in the first place. The sex of the Animal Control officer is irrelevant; what matters is that her training and equipment should have, according to your line of reasoning, rendered the task of apprehending and controlling a mere 55lb dog simple. After all; she (the Officer) is a human, no? She's not as strong as a man, but surely she'd be strong enough, smart enough, superior enough, to handle a 55lb-er, right? Or is she by default a totally incompetent weakling because of her sex?

2: Vids #2 and #3 are in direct refutation of your assertions regarding the amount of damage these animals can do. Man or woman, human flesh is human flesh, and the dog in question literally -did- take someones arm off, and -did- take chunks out of them, two things which you insisted repeatedly were impossible. Vid #2 also shows that even trained combat veterans, in this case a powerfully-built Policeman armed with a firearm, nightstick, and probably a Tazer-gun, take great precautions with these animals. This forces me to wonder why, if killing one of these animals is so simple and capturing them probably equally so, didn't this big, strong Policeman use your methods and line of reasoning? Why the worry, why the fuss, why the gunfire? After all, he's HUMAN, and a grown MANLY MAN at that! He's stronger, smarter, more agile and more ferocious than the dog, right? And the dog's just a dumb, slow, weak, naturally-subservient coward, right? And then, of course, there's the simple sight of watching a dog literally rip chunks out of a car. Funny thing; that dog doesn't seem terribly cowardly or subservient as he's ripping that bumper off, just pissed.
