True story: I was walking out of a Starbucks in Bogota, Colombia, in September 2025 when a big husky mix dog some 30 feet (10 meters) away locked eyes on me, charged at me, sent his owner to the floor (the leash rushing out of his hands).
The dog ran towards me and sunk its teeth around my upper thigh as I *furiously* Bashed it with my mechanical keyboard (Razer Blackwidow I'm using right now!).
No serious injury me to me, but it was a complete non-incident to everyone involved. They explained to me that dogs have civil liberties in Colombia and are only dealt with when they kill someone. If they just seriously maul someone, even a child, they are considered innocent and have to go before a literal judge...
