According to her social media, Ms Morey was the loving owner of what appears to be an XL bully.

In one video on TikTok, she is seen dancing with a dog in a kitchen.

The video is covered by a male voice saying: "This is my son and I don't give a f*** if you think he looks aggressive and I don't give a f*** if you don't like the look of him and I surely don't give a f*** whether you think the breed should be banned."

...

Another chilling video appearing to show her as the owner of several dogs is captioned: "But if one of us dies - I hope I die first." The video ends with a caption reading: "Love my family."

If anyone is has no idea what that means, XL bully is a type of dog.

This might be common knowledge, but I've never heard of it.

From Wikipedia:

The XL Bully was responsible for 10 of the 19 deaths caused by dogs in the UK in the period between 2021 and 2023, and in December 2023, the UK Government added the breed to the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991, making it illegal to sell, breed, abandon or have a Bully XL in public without a lead and muzzle in England and Wales.[5]

That dog is so angry looking, like it walks on its own fists, and does pushups.

And that one is in the Wikipedia page because it's a champion, meaning a great representative of its breed.

"Ate da catz, 'Ate da postman, 'Ate da neyborz kidz. Simple Az."

That dog looks like it should have an Ankle bracelet, a thick gold chain and be wearing stolen Nikes.

It's such an ugly breed, I've no idea what owners see it in.

They see the power they themselves lack.

There is a woman in my town that has one. And when they were banned the news interviewed her, and she said it's because the dog makes her feel safe when she walks the streets at night.

People buy them to be aggressive, it's ridiculous. If it's a choice between a dangerous dog and allowing people to have guns I honestly would rather that they had guns. At least the gun is controlled by a somewhat competent human, the dog is unpredictable.

So basically the dog is called "Massive Pitbull" but that name is clearly far too coherence, so they changed it to something stupid.

Sounds like a Bad Dragon dildo

[-] Confused_Emus@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I think I’ve got that one!

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 10 points 3 weeks ago

It’s not a rapper then?

[-] Hundun@beehaw.org 7 points 3 weeks ago

Thank you, I thought they were referring to one of my former classmates.

[-] johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I think that's because it's UK terminology that's not really used in the US.
