A machete-wielding dog owner screamed racist abuse at a Nigerian man who complained about being bitten by his Rottweiler – then later told police the animal had nipped the male nurse because it ‘didn’t like black people’.

Meanwhile, this one Machete would like to have a word with the dog owner.
For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you. Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
