An owner that lets their dog take a crunch on the ground and doesn't pick it up is irresponsible.
An owner that lets their dog urinate anywhere other than their own back yard while within the city is irresponsible.
Basically, I think it would be impossible for us to agree about what we find irresponsible. IMO, every dog owner is irresponsible as they would be guilty of probably all of the above (I think there would be some that would keep their dog away from my family, however, which is always appreciated).

Whats irresponsible is using terminology like murderer and trying to pass this thread off as legitimate. Most rational people understand that dog attacks are an enormously small problem in relation to the size and issues of this and every other city.
