I can't speak for your local Walmart but, for mine, I reckon me waving a bar of soap would be viewed as an agent of terror!!

I think the year after I visited, the Walmart near my sister's place had a gang shoot-out in the parking lot (the greeter got a hole in his car), and my sister wouldn't go there for months.

just typed a longer reply and it's now erased/gone..grrr!..now short story. I'm a Brit living in Florida for years .Today I've learned that my ex american born neighbour has died up in New Jersey after a 'police incident' which resulted in his dog being shot dead (I used to walk my dog together) and him dying in custody. Comments I'm reading from on-line north state news more or less say...'Oh, ..a guy from Florida, all explained' Well what I know of him is that he was born and raised up there and his dog was a fun pup to walk with mine before they moved away.

Sad, but he was apparently drunk while driving a tractor trailer, and refused to stop, and the dog wasn't a "fun pup", it was a pitbull. I am sure most of them aren't a problem, but IMO they deserve their reputation.

Most dogs are what they are raised to be. A pit bull raised by a responsible owner can be just as friendly a pet as any dog raised in similar circumstances. The bad reputation comes from treatment at the hands of owners who should not be allowed near any animal.

as in there are no bad dogs...only bad owners.

I don't entirely agree, as IMO a few dogs are hard-wired to be aggressive. .... The same is true of humans.
Maybe "the wrong sort of owner" is disproportionately attracted to pitbulls. ... But my insurance company would disagree as pitbulls get a specific mention in the policy exclusions.

probably because humans have bred them that way.

You've spent too long living in America!

I just wanted to use that word! Incidentally it's not the most desirable pad in downtown imo if you have that kind of money.

Bizarre story, even by Florida standards, breaking today. Apparently a couple decided to play hide-n-seek in their Orlando area apartment after downing a few drinks. He went and hid in a suitcase and she found him and zipped it up and went off and fell asleep. Woke up a few hours later to find he had suffocated. Emergency services arrived and both cell phones were checked and discovered that he had cried out something like ..'I cannot breath' which she replied...'that's what it feels like when you choke me' this morning she appeared in front of a judge!
