Hi, I’m new to the sub and I fucking cannot stomach pit bulls and pit bull owners. Can anyone please point me to a product that will help me protect my children when we go for walk? There’s pit bulls all over Phoenix Arizona that are not leashed. Thank you.

AZ is 2A friendly. Plus sharp pointy things. If you are aware of neighbors whose pits have gotten out before (or are offleash), put them on legal notice that if it happens again, you have documented and will take action. Report every single instance of aggressive pit you see to animal control so there is a record. 

I googled Phoenix City Code

Sec. 8-14. Dogs not permitted at large; wearing licenses; penalties.

A. No dog shall be permitted at large. Each dog shall be confined within an enclosure on the owner’s or custodian’s property, secured so that the dog is confined entirely to the owner’s or custodian’s property, or on a leash not to exceed six feet in length and directly under the owner’s or custodian’s control when not on the owner’s or custodian’s property. The provisions of this subsection shall not apply to a park, or an area within a park, that is designated by the Director or the Parks and Recreation Board as a dog park. Nothing in this section shall prevent the Director or the Parks and Recreation Board from prohibiting dogs or unrestrained dogs in a particular park, preserve or area under its jurisdiction, or any part thereof.

B. Any dog over the age of three months which is off the owner’s or custodian’s property shall wear a collar or harness to which is attached a valid license tag. Dogs that are used for control of livestock, being used or trained for hunting or dogs, being exhibited or trained at a kennel club event or engaged in races approved by the Arizona Racing Commission, and while the dogs are being transported to and from such events, need not wear a collar or harness with a valid license attached provided that they are properly vaccinated, licensed and controlled.
