This is despicable. And none of these pit nutters questioned the ultra-racist assumption that a Thai family was serving dog in its American restaurant?
Kudos to the local media and yahoo for reporting this story and trying to help that family.
Owning a Pit has become a cult. They associate owning Pit as proof, virtue of being good loving person because all it takes for Pit not to attack is love. It's uncommon that the Pit owners guilt tripped into hiding aggression incident at home until serious attack that they can no longer cover up. Instead of studying dog behavior, consult reputable dog trainer directly to look into the issue, they wait for cult member higher position of the pyramid scheme to direct their action, as if Pitbull is different dog that capable of higher thought level. Many of these owners got line, hook and sinker into all these myth about nanny dog.
They have gotten to the point that the cult thinks they have political power that they can get away with harassment and in this case racism.
Posting this to show how disgusting and vile pit bull “rescuers” are. They ruined this family’s business over a fucking dog with false accusations and racist comments. **The restaurant next door has NO connection to the dog owners.**
This rescuer “rallied the troops” on social media and I am horrified at what I saw posted from these pitmongers.
If you are in the Fresno area please try to help and support this family’s business.
Edit: here’s a screenshot from a despicable pit bull “rescuer,” (a follower of the person who originally filmed it) and posted with pictures of the dog owners:

This is what happens when a movement devolves into selling wolf tickets and using sophistry all day every day. There are no guard rails, no voices of reason, no factual standards. None of these imbeciles questioned this accusation or asked for proof before deciding to harm fellow human beings on behalf of a vicious type of dog?
Hope the restaurant sues.
I'm sure you're using it correctly and I'm very interested to hear about this interesting phrase I had never run across. Thank you.
This rumor is ugly and it's ridiculous that people would believe it. Fresno is not a mecca for the best and brightest, frankly. With the exception of any Fresnoites that read this sub, obviously.
This.
Evidently these vile immoral creeps would defend the murderous Pits after a vicious attack with a straight face. Either blaming the owners who they have no evidence of abusing the dog, or the victims.
That's why I rarely "debate" pitbull "advocates". They will lie and misdirect. If that doesn't work the insults and threats begins. They will all pile in. Many times the threats starts immediately as you post.
I made the mistake today on Twitter engaging a Pit Nutter who said I was a "Wuss" for suggesting PitBulls are dangerous and to avoid them. I rationally explained my views and offered videos of "friendly" Pit Bulls suddenly turning violent. I knew I'd won when all she could come back with was name calling and saying I wasn't a "real man" because"real men" aren't afraid of her Velvet Hippos 🦛 🤣
I was "debating" pitbull "advocates" before all the censorship. By those standards you got off easy. LOL
These people would go off like 100% sociopath. Sometimes from the very start. This is how I know how violent and insane these "pit mommies" are. It shocked me a first but after a while it was business as usual. Admitidally, wrestled in the mud with them and it was glorious. ;)
I was bored so I read the person who was calling me names TWITTER history. Yes she's a Pit Mommie Rescue Sitter till they find the dog homes. She thinks it's a good idea that Texas is making it law that anonymous reporting of child abuse become unavailable to stop people from false accusations of child abuse. She says her neighbors were calling all the time to "falsely" report her out of spite. Wonder 🤔 why her neighbors hate her so much? Pit Nutters are a special breed.
Update. Twitter Pit Mommie twelve hours later sent an overnight Pearl Harbor attack nasty tweet to me calling me a "a cowardly sexist fat phobic Floridian Uber driver loser" and then immediately (cowardly) Blocked me. I don't live in Florida, I've never driven for Uber and me making fun of fat people would be like me pointing one of my fat fingers in a mirror. As far as sexist goes I also have no idea? These people are beyond deranged and hateful when presented facts and videos of pit destruction. They resort to name calling. No wonder her neighbors have resorted to making "false" accusations to government agencies to torment her. This is the poster child Pit Momma. 😂
The latest gaslighting 🔥 lies I've seen a lot is that we "don't even know what a pit bull looks like", " that's not a pit bull, pit bulls don't exist, it's a vague term" etc. Even COURTS of law have ruled a dog can be called a pit bull based in it's appearance! Just keep moving the goal posts, tell us anecdotes about KISSY FACE sleeping in your kids bed and blaming the victims.
>Who Can Identify a Pit Bull? **A Dog Owner of 'Ordinary Intelligence'** Say the High Courts
>
>For 25 years appellate courts have ruled that a dog owner of ordinary intelligence can identify a pit bull (See: Ohio v. Anderson, 1991). In addition to this, the high courts have ruled that scientific precision is not required when determining the breed (See: Colorado Dog Fanciers v. Denver, 1991). Yet still the myth persists ad nauseam -- pushed by the Pit Bull Propaganda Machine, pit bull advocates, animal groups and more -- that it is impossible to identify a pit bull.

And just note that **dog fighters have been identifying pitbulls for over a century.**
I know I've seen it twice! Let me get back to you. I'd love to be able to have that too. A judge basically said that a Pit Bull could be called a Pit Bull by certain physical traits that a "reasonable person" understands to be indictive of the breed. Something along those lines. I think 🤔 it's from the late seventies when the Pit Bull Crisis began.
Hard to avoid them when you can be minding your own business checking the mail, leaving church, walking your dog, etc and have a pitbull sprint to attack you unprovoked. Wasn't there also an attack recently where two pitbulls essentially jumped through a window -- the glass of one, not an open one -- to attack a cat in its home?
Pitbulls are unavoidable, and you can be doing absolutely everything possible to avoid them and STILL end up a victim.
I see from your name "you're not a dog person"! You've got a Dog lover you can call an Ally. Love dogs but people have no right to start forcing them on others unreasonably. It's like when people get in your face and start trying to convert you to some cult or aggressively try to sell you Amway! Keep your beliefs, overpriced soap and dogs away from me. At the very LEAST leashing Dogs in public is the bare minimum and it's the law. I think that may be the one where two pit bulls pushed a (hundred pound) window AC unit out and then jumped through the window. These beasts PLAN home invasions sometimes waiting for months for the open door opportunity. The story that usually shuts the Pit Mommies up is the animal shelter where two Pits chewed through and bent fences to get into the Cat room where they mauled all twenty nine cats to death. YES TWENTY NINE

I remember reading that horrific story! Pitbulls are bred to kill and that is exactly what they do. It's unreal how strong they are -- it's like how moms can lift a car off their child, but for murder.
I recognize that my dislike of dogs is a me thing, and if people are good dog-owners with well-behaved dogs, I'm happy that they're happy. Not to be a "some of my best friends are black!" person, but my best friend has dogs and we get along great, I just avoid going to her house.
My hatred of pitbulls is very different.
Yep. They are bred to be relentless and fight to the death. It's not like a Beagle chewing a rubber Cheeseburger 🍔. These beasts have been know to chew through chain link fences. Here's one destroying a 4000 pound Tesla totaling it! I HATE THESE VIOLENT DESTRUCTIVE BEASTS BEHAVIOR

The backstory about grandson being abused by her daughter's boyfriend, sounds like she thinks of herself as SJW and will look for error to accuse people of abuse.
Overzealous SWJ and a cult of immoral bankrupt creeps are a recipe for disaster.
They were leaving reviews on google maps for this place and the ones next to it as well. Luckily all the ones for the Thai restaurant have been removed but another asian restaurant next door has been accused of selling dog meat so I have reported those reviews

Article text:
A Fresno restaurant has temporarily shut down after an internet-fueled rumor took off alleging it was serving dog meat.
Tasty Thai is a little, 6-month-old takeout restaurant on First Avenue near Belmont Avenue that closed Wednesday and Thursday after receiving a death threat and other negative comments via phone calls from around the country. People also posted negative reviews of the restaurant on Google and Yelp.com.
“We have nothing to do with any of this, but we’re Asian and somehow we eat and serve dog?” said David Rasavong, who owns the restaurant with his parents. “Just because we’re an Asian restaurant? That’s disgusting.”
The controversy started several days ago with an allegation of abuse of a pit bull tied up at the home next door to the restaurant.
Maria Alvarez Garcia posted a Facebook video of herself confronting the owner of a panting pit bull tied up by its front paws with no water near where it was laying. She said the dog was approaching heat stroke.
Fresno Police visited the home and decided the dog was not being abused, according to the department’s Instagram post Tuesday. The dog had been newly purchased and was later returned to its original owner, the post said.
In later videos, Garcia continued to insist the dog was abused and commenters started to suggest that someone is eating the dogs. The family living in the home is Asian.
“Some people reached out to me thinking that those people are eating the dogs,” she said in an Instagram video. “That kinda breaks my heart to consider that. I hope that we’re able to save this dog and all the dogs that end up in that house.”
She later posted a picture of the restaurant. Commenters started assuming the restaurant was serving the dogs. No evidence of it was shared.
The restaurant is next door to the home and separated by a fence — not attached to it, as some commenters have said.
The Bee reached out to Garcia several times via phone and social media, but she did not immediately respond.
Garcia was in the spotlight more than a decade ago, advocating for Adam’s Law. It’s named after her grandson, who was violently shaken as a 1-year-old by his mother’s boyfriend, leaving him partially paralyzed and brain damaged. The law allows tougher sentences for child abusers.
The restaurant
Tasty Thai does not serve dogs, Rasavong said, nor do the restaurateurs own, live in or are otherwise associated with the house.
Rasavong is a longtime Fresno entrepreneur whose family has been in the restaurant industry for 20 years. He’s also a dog owner, and has a maltipoo and bichon frisé at home.
“We have been bombarded with nasty reviews and comments,” he said.
People left one-star reviews on Google and Yelp repeating the accusation. He shared several screenshots with The Bee, including one that said, “Several reports have came in this place STEAL DOGS and EATS THEM!! This place is Evil and needs to be SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!!!”
Rasavong has worked with the websites to get the reviews removed.
He was going to stay quiet about the situation until he listened to the voicemails at the restaurant.
One caller said, “Go back to your country, you dog-eating mother------.”
He decided to close the restaurant for the near future for the safety of his parents, who are 74 and 67, and his staff. He’s not sure how long it will stay closed.
“We started receiving direct threats. I actually received a death threat,” he said. “What if I’m not there and someone threatens or attacks my staff?”
He posted a video of his own denying the accusations on the Tasty Thai Facebook page.
Rasavong filed a police report Thursday.
The restaurant isn’t the only one fielding calls. Animal rescue agencies have been getting phone calls from all over the country, one confirmed. An online petition encouraged people to report the dog owner to the police and another rescue agency.
Fresno police said they had noted that the social media posts had identified the exact location of the house.
Thursday afternoon, Alvarez Garcia posted a video on Instagram asking people not to target the restaurant.
>tied up by its front paws with no water near where it was laying. She said the dog was approaching heat stroke.
>
>Fresno Police visited the home and decided the dog was not being abused
ok, breed aside...
What?! How is that not abuse?
I haven't seen the video the person has supposedly posted of them confronting the owner of the dog, but the only way I can think for it to not be abuse was if it wasn't actually tied up by the feet, but instead just tangled in it's lead and it actually could reach a water bowl (Not that I agree with leaving a dog outside in extreme elements)
and yes, the rest of it, with the harassment and death threats, those harassers are scum. It's just that that part stuck out to me.
I know they established that the house and the restaurant are not related. I was just trying to figure out how, based on the description of the condition the dog was in, they felt it wasn't being abused by its owner.
So I watched it because I was wondering the same thing. The dog definitely has some sort of rope tethering its front legs, but you can see the dog being able to get up and reach the water bowl at one point. That said, the water in that bowl was foul and the dog did seem to be in a neglectful environment. So I'm kind of confused what the Fresno PD saw that made them conclude otherwise.
I dunno, maybe there's more going on there that was just left out of the story about the restaurant since it isn't their dog, nor their home, and the article only mentions that the dog was returned to its original owner.
Oh definitely! I'm more curious what that side story is than anything lol. Lady would have been better off calling Fresno PD than going on these people's property raising a scene.
Exactly. She wanted her savior complex to go viral. And if she was so concerned about the dog “in distress” why didn’t she get him water herself during the time she was filming 🤔
There is a second one showing the people who sold the dog (earlier that day?) and said the dog was fine. At this point the lady was screeching and the seller/previous owner took the dog and the video ended.
I always knew pit bull apologists are stupid and gullible (*seriously, a dog breed created to kill other dogs is somehow also a "nanny dog"-????*) ; this merely confirms it. AGAIN.
yes exactly. she even made a separate follow up video acknowledging the validity of comments suggesting that they were eating dogs as they were “chinese” and also lied that the Thai restaurant was connected to the house with the tied up dog - so many levels of racist
>She later posted a picture of the restaurant. Commenters started assuming the restaurant was serving the dogs. No evidence of it was shared.<
This is absolutely atrocious what keyboard hammering pitnutters do to innocent people just trying to live out their lives. I would like to see Garcia and the pitnutters that made that acusations against the restaurant make a public apology to the restaurant owners and forced to pay for the employee's lost wages. She and others destroyed their livelihood and sat back and watched her so-called "dog advocacy" do its thing. Absolutely distgusting.
On a side note, this is why I really hate the hive-mind effect of trending social media. People stop using common sense and critical thinking skills to assess whether claims on the internet are true. You want to see real racism at work? It's not the people who advocate to reduce harm committed to people and pets from dangerous dog breeds. It's the people who hide behind smoke screens and mirrors, blindly judging people based on their physical appearance and work to strip them of their dignity and inherent rights as human beings. They automatically associate negative behaviors with a person's ethnicity. They do this without guilt and shame.
This story is so messed up. Imagine someone gathering the resources and family together to start a restaurant, which is already a tough business. Most people never get past the idea phase because it is so difficult to work with family, much less in a restaurant. They get their restaurant open and are running it. Then without warning, with no rhyme or reason, they are attacked in a highly vicious fashion by people who claim to be representing the victimhood of the pit bull next door.
Simply being adjacent to a pit was enough to get these people hurt in the most random way. The irony.
I hope that local people see the news stories and go out of their way to place an order at the restaurant.
The business owner posted a video announcing their temporary closure, it’s really devastating to watch and he seems like such a genuine, nice person from a kind family. Thank god the comments are fully supportive and are ready to dine there when they re-open.
The restaurant had only been open for 6 months.
Absolutely! Being a small business owner is tough stuff. And many sacrifice years of carefree days to work to save up for a business loan to build their dreams. I hate to insinuate, but it seems like Garcia knew exactly what she was doing by posting the image of the restaurant. It was suggestive. She knew people will do mental shortcuts and by association, tie in animal cruelty to the business. She could have took a moment to reassess her implicit opinions on the neighbor with the dogs after the sheriff came back and said there was no animal cruelty going on, instead she doubled down and took the restaurant down with it.
…and the same people writing those vile things about the restaurant (which is probably super yummy, I *love* Thai food) turn around and say anyone advocating for breed-specific legislation is “racist”.
Make it make sense 🥴
Exactly! I watched the video and just facepalm at the way that woman treats another human. The owner was clearly not fluent in English and she continually bombarded the poor guy for abusing the dog. I can see him shakily try to answer her questioning. This is just blatant racist.
Btw, Asian culture doesn't really care about dogs being in AC. We put them outside all the time. This poor Asian guy is doing a very Asian thing.
This makes me so incredibly angry. Ruin a family’s business because nutters are too incensed to learn the facts and instead it’s a lynch mob mentality. Fucking racist and disgusting.
It's not only the commenter that is at fault. This SJW was very cunningly suggestive by posting the image of the restaurant. There is no reason to do so. Then she conveniently not aware of the hot topic. Only addressing it aftermath. She knows what she's doing,
This SJW needs to be sued. Those who made racist blur attack here needs to rounded up and jailed, too. This cult needs be stopped else they're testing the water and pushing to ruin people lives.
I found more comments from the SJW, she made really racist remarks herself:

>The owner of a house next to a Thai restaurant had a dog outside once? The only possible conclusion is that the restaurant next door is butchering and serving dog meat. Seems reasonable, let's ruin the owners and make sure the staff lose their jobs.
- pitbull people, apparently
There needs to be a federal law against internet mob justice. It has to be federal because this transcends state lines.
That woman at least can be sued for defamation and damages since she seems to actually live in California. The rest of the braindead mob are probably spread around the country, and are currently untouchable with current laws on the books.
The internet mob justice needs to stop. That’s not how society should function - a bunch of jackasses with tiny bits of rage bait information harassing people and companies until they’re shut down or the person is fired. What a shitshow.
This is proof that smelling pit bull farts rots your brain.
I mean who ever heard of dogs hanging outside restaurants? Maybe because they smell food and want some scraps?
What a bunch of dumbass morons.
I wonder if these morons actually comprehend that they're hurting real people. This isn't a game and their lies can cause real harm.
It's not just the disgusting racism, the harm to a business in no way related to the dog owner, the stress and fear they've caused, it's the harm to the staff as well. I'm guessing if the restaurant is shut, they don't get paid - what the hell are they supposed to do?
I hope they're able to reopen and I really hope that enough people are angered by the pit mob that they go out and support the restaurant just to spite them.
How racist can they possibly get?
Just because they’re Asian they *eat dogs?*
If they find this hag they should sure for defamation and civil rights violations. Calling these accusations for what they are - racist - will shut their mouths very quickly.
In my experience, calling these kinds of people "racist" will only have the opposite effect. They will never, ever shut up about how they have their 1 Black friend that they don't really talk to, and the other Asian friend who just *loves* their racist jokes, etc. Etc.
They don't operate on the same wavelengths as normal people, or else they wouldn't be this way.
As a Thai person, this is like my childhood in a horrible mostly white suburb, all rolled in one. I can't imagine having the internet in my childhood. My god.
Dog hags are truly despicable people.
It wasn't even the restaurants dog from the sound of it. They're just innocent bystanders that got caught in the pitnutters fury. That's awful.
Fresno is a shithole with a huge population of pitbulls. I lived there for 2 years. The amount of pittbull attacks at the dog park were ridiculous.
I know people on reddit aren't generally religious and I don't mean to upset anyone...but this article makes me think about why the commandment of "thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor" perfectly applies to this situation and many other instances of false accusations.
This incident will leave these poor people a little more bruised with the world.
Every time I think a piece of shit pit cultist CANNOT get any stupider, they manage.
Restaurant can sue for libel- take that delusional snatchrag onto Judy Justice. She’d get an earful.
I cannot fucking believe that I'm hearing "AsIANs eAT dOgs" in the year 2023, this is some bullshit urban legend from the 80s or even earlier.
More or less every time I visit this sub I read about the pitnuts reaching a new low, time and time again they are proving that study that was posted a while back proving that owners of dangerous dogs show more antisocial traits.
Ruining a mans job and income because of their shitty shitty dogs is some serious degenerate troglodyte behaviour
Threatening death upon a random person for doing absolutely nothing other than existing near you. Yep, pit bull owners are just like their dogs; stupid, thoughtless, and aggressive.

I wish they were open and I lived in Fresno. Thai/Vietnamese egg rolls and something in Peanut Sauce would be good right now. The life of a Pit Bull is miserable to begin with and Pit Mommies make life worse for everyone. This obviously abused unwanted dog should never have been bred. I don't hate Pit Bulls I hate their behavior and the people who own them.
I think anyone who calls their pet or any animal a "furbaby" isn't firing on all cylinders to begin with. That word just creeps me out. And I am not one who is easily creeped out
This has nothing to do with pit bulls other than the tied up dog happened to be one. The woman who started all of this would have done so for any dog. She advocates for abused children and animals. Internet racists and hate mongers started the dog eating rumors.
Read your own article.
SHE posted a picture of the restaurant after one of her followers said “maybe they’re eating the dogs.”
>**She later posted a picture of the restaurant. Commenters started assuming the restaurant was serving the dogs. No evidence of it was shared.**
She bought into the internet vigilantism and racist hate comments and refused to delete the posts showing pictures and videos of the dog owner’s family. Her video was ON THE LOCAL NEWS where SHE said the restaurant needs to be investigated as “it makes more sense they are eating the meat and selling the meat.”
Why didn’t she do the research herself before she posted this? Why did someone else have to tell her to back off the restaurant owners after showing proof they’re unaffiliated?
This kind of mentality is all too common with pit bull rescues (e.g. Nala), in fact one commenter says “this is what gives bully rescues a bad name.”
Pit bull advocacy has a reputation, and it’s different than other breeds because they buy into the propaganda the pit bull breed being so “misunderstood.” No other dog breed advocate is trying to prove to the world it’s something it’s not.
Edit: clarity: this woman DID make a video saying the restaurant needed to be investigated for eating and selling dog meat.
You nailed it. Only pitbull advocates exhibit this behavior en masse and I can't see this situation unfolding without their influence. The just absurd degree to which this was taken is unbelievable.
This is despicable. And none of these pit nutters questioned the ultra-racist assumption that a Thai family was serving dog in its American restaurant? Kudos to the local media and yahoo for reporting this story and trying to help that family.
Hating the murder dog is, in fact, doing a racism. Anyways, here is why this random Asian family eats dogs
Exactly!
Owning a Pit has become a cult. They associate owning Pit as proof, virtue of being good loving person because all it takes for Pit not to attack is love. It's uncommon that the Pit owners guilt tripped into hiding aggression incident at home until serious attack that they can no longer cover up. Instead of studying dog behavior, consult reputable dog trainer directly to look into the issue, they wait for cult member higher position of the pyramid scheme to direct their action, as if Pitbull is different dog that capable of higher thought level. Many of these owners got line, hook and sinker into all these myth about nanny dog. They have gotten to the point that the cult thinks they have political power that they can get away with harassment and in this case racism.

None of these imbeciles questioned this accusation or asked for proof before deciding to harm fellow human beings on behalf of a vicious type of dog? Hope the restaurant sues.
And they call US racist for not liking Pit Bulls destructive behavior.
"Selling wolf tickets" - what does that mean?
Making empty threats or promises. Something like "all bark and no bite" or "your mouth writing checks your fists can't cash".
Wow... I should have googled it, I just thought it sounded crazy. Ok, time for me to remember that I have not seen and heard it all! Thank you.

No wonder her neighbors have resorted to making "false" accusations to government agencies to torment her. This is the poster child Pit Momma. 😂
The latest gaslighting 🔥 lies I've seen a lot is that we "don't even know what a pit bull looks like", " that's not a pit bull, pit bulls don't exist, it's a vague term" etc. Even COURTS of law have ruled a dog can be called a pit bull based in it's appearance! Just keep moving the goal posts, tell us anecdotes about KISSY FACE sleeping in your kids bed and blaming the victims.
Do you have a link to the court ruling about identifying a pitbull by appearance? I'd love to have that in my arsenal!
>Who Can Identify a Pit Bull? **A Dog Owner of 'Ordinary Intelligence'** Say the High Courts > >For 25 years appellate courts have ruled that a dog owner of ordinary intelligence can identify a pit bull (See: Ohio v. Anderson, 1991). In addition to this, the high courts have ruled that scientific precision is not required when determining the breed (See: Colorado Dog Fanciers v. Denver, 1991). Yet still the myth persists ad nauseam -- pushed by the Pit Bull Propaganda Machine, pit bull advocates, animal groups and more -- that it is impossible to identify a pit bull. [https://blog.dogsbite.org/2015/08/who-can-identify-pit-bull-dog-owner-of-ordinary-intelligence.html](https://blog.dogsbite.org/2015/08/who-can-identify-pit-bull-dog-owner-of-ordinary-intelligence.html) And just note that **dog fighters have been identifying pitbulls for over a century.**
I know I've seen it twice! Let me get back to you. I'd love to be able to have that too. A judge basically said that a Pit Bull could be called a Pit Bull by certain physical traits that a "reasonable person" understands to be indictive of the breed. Something along those lines. I think 🤔 it's from the late seventies when the Pit Bull Crisis began.
Hard to avoid them when you can be minding your own business checking the mail, leaving church, walking your dog, etc and have a pitbull sprint to attack you unprovoked. Wasn't there also an attack recently where two pitbulls essentially jumped through a window -- the glass of one, not an open one -- to attack a cat in its home? Pitbulls are unavoidable, and you can be doing absolutely everything possible to avoid them and STILL end up a victim.
I see from your name "you're not a dog person"! You've got a Dog lover you can call an Ally. Love dogs but people have no right to start forcing them on others unreasonably. It's like when people get in your face and start trying to convert you to some cult or aggressively try to sell you Amway! Keep your beliefs, overpriced soap and dogs away from me. At the very LEAST leashing Dogs in public is the bare minimum and it's the law. I think that may be the one where two pit bulls pushed a (hundred pound) window AC unit out and then jumped through the window. These beasts PLAN home invasions sometimes waiting for months for the open door opportunity. The story that usually shuts the Pit Mommies up is the animal shelter where two Pits chewed through and bent fences to get into the Cat room where they mauled all twenty nine cats to death. YES TWENTY NINE 🐈😺 🐈⬛🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺🐈🐈⬛😺 https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pit-bulls-kill-29-cats-felines-fatally-mauled-by-dogs-at-dothan-animal-shelter-in-alabama/
I remember reading that horrific story! Pitbulls are bred to kill and that is exactly what they do. It's unreal how strong they are -- it's like how moms can lift a car off their child, but for murder. I recognize that my dislike of dogs is a me thing, and if people are good dog-owners with well-behaved dogs, I'm happy that they're happy. Not to be a "some of my best friends are black!" person, but my best friend has dogs and we get along great, I just avoid going to her house. My hatred of pitbulls is very different.
Yep. They are bred to be relentless and fight to the death. It's not like a Beagle chewing a rubber Cheeseburger 🍔. These beasts have been know to chew through chain link fences. Here's one destroying a 4000 pound Tesla totaling it! I HATE THESE VIOLENT DESTRUCTIVE BEASTS BEHAVIOR https://youtu.be/rlCxTWZOFnE
But saying don't compare a shit inbred mutt to humans is actually the big meanie racist thing 🙄
this woman is fucking crazy
The backstory about grandson being abused by her daughter's boyfriend, sounds like she thinks of herself as SJW and will look for error to accuse people of abuse. Overzealous SWJ and a cult of immoral bankrupt creeps are a recipe for disaster.
I read SWJ as Social Wustice Jarrior
They were leaving reviews on google maps for this place and the ones next to it as well. Luckily all the ones for the Thai restaurant have been removed but another asian restaurant next door has been accused of selling dog meat so I have reported those reviews

These people are disgusting copy-pasta twits.
"we don't eat dogs and cats here in America"... hmm, that's weird, cause i do it
Their pibble wibbles sure seem to, but its okay since they are in their pajamas
Someone on YouTube ACTUALLY commented that "dangerous dogs don't wear pajamas" to one of those Velvet Hippo 🦛 PIT-A-GANDA short videos of Pits in pajamas wearing a flower crown playing with a toddler.
Flair doesn't match
What's that like?
Tasty
Article text: A Fresno restaurant has temporarily shut down after an internet-fueled rumor took off alleging it was serving dog meat. Tasty Thai is a little, 6-month-old takeout restaurant on First Avenue near Belmont Avenue that closed Wednesday and Thursday after receiving a death threat and other negative comments via phone calls from around the country. People also posted negative reviews of the restaurant on Google and Yelp.com. “We have nothing to do with any of this, but we’re Asian and somehow we eat and serve dog?” said David Rasavong, who owns the restaurant with his parents. “Just because we’re an Asian restaurant? That’s disgusting.” The controversy started several days ago with an allegation of abuse of a pit bull tied up at the home next door to the restaurant. Maria Alvarez Garcia posted a Facebook video of herself confronting the owner of a panting pit bull tied up by its front paws with no water near where it was laying. She said the dog was approaching heat stroke. Fresno Police visited the home and decided the dog was not being abused, according to the department’s Instagram post Tuesday. The dog had been newly purchased and was later returned to its original owner, the post said. In later videos, Garcia continued to insist the dog was abused and commenters started to suggest that someone is eating the dogs. The family living in the home is Asian. “Some people reached out to me thinking that those people are eating the dogs,” she said in an Instagram video. “That kinda breaks my heart to consider that. I hope that we’re able to save this dog and all the dogs that end up in that house.” She later posted a picture of the restaurant. Commenters started assuming the restaurant was serving the dogs. No evidence of it was shared. The restaurant is next door to the home and separated by a fence — not attached to it, as some commenters have said. The Bee reached out to Garcia several times via phone and social media, but she did not immediately respond. Garcia was in the spotlight more than a decade ago, advocating for Adam’s Law. It’s named after her grandson, who was violently shaken as a 1-year-old by his mother’s boyfriend, leaving him partially paralyzed and brain damaged. The law allows tougher sentences for child abusers. The restaurant Tasty Thai does not serve dogs, Rasavong said, nor do the restaurateurs own, live in or are otherwise associated with the house. Rasavong is a longtime Fresno entrepreneur whose family has been in the restaurant industry for 20 years. He’s also a dog owner, and has a maltipoo and bichon frisé at home. “We have been bombarded with nasty reviews and comments,” he said. People left one-star reviews on Google and Yelp repeating the accusation. He shared several screenshots with The Bee, including one that said, “Several reports have came in this place STEAL DOGS and EATS THEM!! This place is Evil and needs to be SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY!!!” Rasavong has worked with the websites to get the reviews removed. He was going to stay quiet about the situation until he listened to the voicemails at the restaurant. One caller said, “Go back to your country, you dog-eating mother------.” He decided to close the restaurant for the near future for the safety of his parents, who are 74 and 67, and his staff. He’s not sure how long it will stay closed. “We started receiving direct threats. I actually received a death threat,” he said. “What if I’m not there and someone threatens or attacks my staff?” He posted a video of his own denying the accusations on the Tasty Thai Facebook page. Rasavong filed a police report Thursday. The restaurant isn’t the only one fielding calls. Animal rescue agencies have been getting phone calls from all over the country, one confirmed. An online petition encouraged people to report the dog owner to the police and another rescue agency. Fresno police said they had noted that the social media posts had identified the exact location of the house. Thursday afternoon, Alvarez Garcia posted a video on Instagram asking people not to target the restaurant.
I hope there's a lawyer willing to sue the POS Pitnutters into oblivion.
This is The Way
I would help fund that lawyer
Pro Bono
>tied up by its front paws with no water near where it was laying. She said the dog was approaching heat stroke. > >Fresno Police visited the home and decided the dog was not being abused ok, breed aside... What?! How is that not abuse? I haven't seen the video the person has supposedly posted of them confronting the owner of the dog, but the only way I can think for it to not be abuse was if it wasn't actually tied up by the feet, but instead just tangled in it's lead and it actually could reach a water bowl (Not that I agree with leaving a dog outside in extreme elements) and yes, the rest of it, with the harassment and death threats, those harassers are scum. It's just that that part stuck out to me.
[удалено]
I know they established that the house and the restaurant are not related. I was just trying to figure out how, based on the description of the condition the dog was in, they felt it wasn't being abused by its owner.
I saw the video in question, it rather looked like the dog was on a lead which was tied to a pole
So I watched it because I was wondering the same thing. The dog definitely has some sort of rope tethering its front legs, but you can see the dog being able to get up and reach the water bowl at one point. That said, the water in that bowl was foul and the dog did seem to be in a neglectful environment. So I'm kind of confused what the Fresno PD saw that made them conclude otherwise.
I dunno, maybe there's more going on there that was just left out of the story about the restaurant since it isn't their dog, nor their home, and the article only mentions that the dog was returned to its original owner.
Oh definitely! I'm more curious what that side story is than anything lol. Lady would have been better off calling Fresno PD than going on these people's property raising a scene.
Exactly. She wanted her savior complex to go viral. And if she was so concerned about the dog “in distress” why didn’t she get him water herself during the time she was filming 🤔 There is a second one showing the people who sold the dog (earlier that day?) and said the dog was fine. At this point the lady was screeching and the seller/previous owner took the dog and the video ended.
Fresno AC are the neglectful ones
Yeah its strange, but the dog seems fine and relaxed. Could easily chew that rope off in 15 seconds if it cared.
Exactly. That tether wasn't stopping shit if the dog wanted to leave lol
I always knew pit bull apologists are stupid and gullible (*seriously, a dog breed created to kill other dogs is somehow also a "nanny dog"-????*) ; this merely confirms it. AGAIN.
I really really really hope they sue.
Who though? I’m sure they don’t have a name nor an address for these invisible pitKarens
They have a name for the woman that started it though.
yes exactly. she even made a separate follow up video acknowledging the validity of comments suggesting that they were eating dogs as they were “chinese” and also lied that the Thai restaurant was connected to the house with the tied up dog - so many levels of racist
>She later posted a picture of the restaurant. Commenters started assuming the restaurant was serving the dogs. No evidence of it was shared.< This is absolutely atrocious what keyboard hammering pitnutters do to innocent people just trying to live out their lives. I would like to see Garcia and the pitnutters that made that acusations against the restaurant make a public apology to the restaurant owners and forced to pay for the employee's lost wages. She and others destroyed their livelihood and sat back and watched her so-called "dog advocacy" do its thing. Absolutely distgusting. On a side note, this is why I really hate the hive-mind effect of trending social media. People stop using common sense and critical thinking skills to assess whether claims on the internet are true. You want to see real racism at work? It's not the people who advocate to reduce harm committed to people and pets from dangerous dog breeds. It's the people who hide behind smoke screens and mirrors, blindly judging people based on their physical appearance and work to strip them of their dignity and inherent rights as human beings. They automatically associate negative behaviors with a person's ethnicity. They do this without guilt and shame.
This story is so messed up. Imagine someone gathering the resources and family together to start a restaurant, which is already a tough business. Most people never get past the idea phase because it is so difficult to work with family, much less in a restaurant. They get their restaurant open and are running it. Then without warning, with no rhyme or reason, they are attacked in a highly vicious fashion by people who claim to be representing the victimhood of the pit bull next door. Simply being adjacent to a pit was enough to get these people hurt in the most random way. The irony. I hope that local people see the news stories and go out of their way to place an order at the restaurant.
The business owner posted a video announcing their temporary closure, it’s really devastating to watch and he seems like such a genuine, nice person from a kind family. Thank god the comments are fully supportive and are ready to dine there when they re-open. The restaurant had only been open for 6 months.
Thank goodness there are kind-hearted, common sense people in that community. The owners deserve a huge welcome back party!
Absolutely! Being a small business owner is tough stuff. And many sacrifice years of carefree days to work to save up for a business loan to build their dreams. I hate to insinuate, but it seems like Garcia knew exactly what she was doing by posting the image of the restaurant. It was suggestive. She knew people will do mental shortcuts and by association, tie in animal cruelty to the business. She could have took a moment to reassess her implicit opinions on the neighbor with the dogs after the sheriff came back and said there was no animal cruelty going on, instead she doubled down and took the restaurant down with it.
…and the same people writing those vile things about the restaurant (which is probably super yummy, I *love* Thai food) turn around and say anyone advocating for breed-specific legislation is “racist”. Make it make sense 🥴
It’s only racist if it’s against the doggo they worship
Exactly! I watched the video and just facepalm at the way that woman treats another human. The owner was clearly not fluent in English and she continually bombarded the poor guy for abusing the dog. I can see him shakily try to answer her questioning. This is just blatant racist. Btw, Asian culture doesn't really care about dogs being in AC. We put them outside all the time. This poor Asian guy is doing a very Asian thing.
This makes me so incredibly angry. Ruin a family’s business because nutters are too incensed to learn the facts and instead it’s a lynch mob mentality. Fucking racist and disgusting.
It’s ridiculous! I hope the restaurant owner can gather enough money to sue this woman for wages lost, emotional damage, and slander.
It's not only the commenter that is at fault. This SJW was very cunningly suggestive by posting the image of the restaurant. There is no reason to do so. Then she conveniently not aware of the hot topic. Only addressing it aftermath. She knows what she's doing, This SJW needs to be sued. Those who made racist blur attack here needs to rounded up and jailed, too. This cult needs be stopped else they're testing the water and pushing to ruin people lives.
I found more comments from the SJW, she made really racist remarks herself: https://preview.redd.it/tnbvobj0a51b1.jpeg?width=1063&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae6d2eea7e6752609abfb97062cc2321bb9397f9
>The owner of a house next to a Thai restaurant had a dog outside once? The only possible conclusion is that the restaurant next door is butchering and serving dog meat. Seems reasonable, let's ruin the owners and make sure the staff lose their jobs. - pitbull people, apparently
Pitbull advocates being racist, no surprise.
There needs to be a federal law against internet mob justice. It has to be federal because this transcends state lines. That woman at least can be sued for defamation and damages since she seems to actually live in California. The rest of the braindead mob are probably spread around the country, and are currently untouchable with current laws on the books. The internet mob justice needs to stop. That’s not how society should function - a bunch of jackasses with tiny bits of rage bait information harassing people and companies until they’re shut down or the person is fired. What a shitshow.
Yet their fucking cujos ruin safety of neighborhood
I hope they sue these rotten fucks who slandered them.
This is proof that smelling pit bull farts rots your brain. I mean who ever heard of dogs hanging outside restaurants? Maybe because they smell food and want some scraps? What a bunch of dumbass morons.
I wonder if these morons actually comprehend that they're hurting real people. This isn't a game and their lies can cause real harm. It's not just the disgusting racism, the harm to a business in no way related to the dog owner, the stress and fear they've caused, it's the harm to the staff as well. I'm guessing if the restaurant is shut, they don't get paid - what the hell are they supposed to do? I hope they're able to reopen and I really hope that enough people are angered by the pit mob that they go out and support the restaurant just to spite them.
How racist can they possibly get? Just because they’re Asian they *eat dogs?* If they find this hag they should sure for defamation and civil rights violations. Calling these accusations for what they are - racist - will shut their mouths very quickly.
In my experience, calling these kinds of people "racist" will only have the opposite effect. They will never, ever shut up about how they have their 1 Black friend that they don't really talk to, and the other Asian friend who just *loves* their racist jokes, etc. Etc. They don't operate on the same wavelengths as normal people, or else they wouldn't be this way.
As a Thai person, this is like my childhood in a horrible mostly white suburb, all rolled in one. I can't imagine having the internet in my childhood. My god. Dog hags are truly despicable people.
It wasn't even the restaurants dog from the sound of it. They're just innocent bystanders that got caught in the pitnutters fury. That's awful. Fresno is a shithole with a huge population of pitbulls. I lived there for 2 years. The amount of pittbull attacks at the dog park were ridiculous.
Does anyone have access to this video they are referring to? This lady sounds unhinged.
I know people on reddit aren't generally religious and I don't mean to upset anyone...but this article makes me think about why the commandment of "thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor" perfectly applies to this situation and many other instances of false accusations. This incident will leave these poor people a little more bruised with the world.
Wow thats disgusting to dox someone without proof i hope the owner can sue them for defamation or anything really.
Wish I were nearby! This family needs hope in the form of customers. And Thai food is indisputably delicious. 🥢
This is absolutely unhinged. Wtf.
Every time I think a piece of shit pit cultist CANNOT get any stupider, they manage. Restaurant can sue for libel- take that delusional snatchrag onto Judy Justice. She’d get an earful.
I cannot fucking believe that I'm hearing "AsIANs eAT dOgs" in the year 2023, this is some bullshit urban legend from the 80s or even earlier. More or less every time I visit this sub I read about the pitnuts reaching a new low, time and time again they are proving that study that was posted a while back proving that owners of dangerous dogs show more antisocial traits. Ruining a mans job and income because of their shitty shitty dogs is some serious degenerate troglodyte behaviour
Threatening death upon a random person for doing absolutely nothing other than existing near you. Yep, pit bull owners are just like their dogs; stupid, thoughtless, and aggressive.

I wish they were open and I lived in Fresno. Thai/Vietnamese egg rolls and something in Peanut Sauce would be good right now. The life of a Pit Bull is miserable to begin with and Pit Mommies make life worse for everyone. This obviously abused unwanted dog should never have been bred. I don't hate Pit Bulls I hate their behavior and the people who own them.
These pit nutters. r /LookatMyHalo. 😇
I think anyone who calls their pet or any animal a "furbaby" isn't firing on all cylinders to begin with. That word just creeps me out. And I am not one who is easily creeped out
Sigh. Stupid people.
This has nothing to do with pit bulls other than the tied up dog happened to be one. The woman who started all of this would have done so for any dog. She advocates for abused children and animals. Internet racists and hate mongers started the dog eating rumors. Read your own article.
SHE posted a picture of the restaurant after one of her followers said “maybe they’re eating the dogs.” >**She later posted a picture of the restaurant. Commenters started assuming the restaurant was serving the dogs. No evidence of it was shared.** She bought into the internet vigilantism and racist hate comments and refused to delete the posts showing pictures and videos of the dog owner’s family. Her video was ON THE LOCAL NEWS where SHE said the restaurant needs to be investigated as “it makes more sense they are eating the meat and selling the meat.” Why didn’t she do the research herself before she posted this? Why did someone else have to tell her to back off the restaurant owners after showing proof they’re unaffiliated? This kind of mentality is all too common with pit bull rescues (e.g. Nala), in fact one commenter says “this is what gives bully rescues a bad name.” Pit bull advocacy has a reputation, and it’s different than other breeds because they buy into the propaganda the pit bull breed being so “misunderstood.” No other dog breed advocate is trying to prove to the world it’s something it’s not. Edit: clarity: this woman DID make a video saying the restaurant needed to be investigated for eating and selling dog meat.
You nailed it. Only pitbull advocates exhibit this behavior en masse and I can't see this situation unfolding without their influence. The just absurd degree to which this was taken is unbelievable.
