Liberal Nanny State Fails, Child Pays the Price

A Texas toddler, Adaya Fisher, is dead after an encounter with man's best friend while her parents trusted a government-sanctioned babysitter. Big surprise: the nanny wasn't armed.

At 12:20 p.m. on Monday, Houston police arrived at a North Houston home to find a two-year-old girl had been savaged by three Rottweilers. She was taken to Texas Children's Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Police are "investigating", which usually means they're looking for someone to blame other than the real culprit: the nanny state that disarms law-abiding citizens.

"The dogs were surrendered and humanely euthanized," a government bureaucrat said, probably wearing Birkenstocks. "Our thoughts are with the family."

If you have information on this case, call the Houston Police Department's Homicide Division at 713-308-3600, but don't expect liberal Texas to do much to protect its law-abiding, gun-owning citizens anytime soon.
