You want kill pit bulls and such, I play with them. I ain't got no special powers either...dogs can just sense when someone is not afraid and mean them no harm. If you have fear and hatred of dogs, they will pick it up and you will have a bad day. You just can't hide that stuff.

I wish it was as easy as saying 'deal with your fear', but of course it isn't. So by all means protect yourself....I wish I could prevent you having to do so, but I can't.
