You’re obviously a pit bull apologist, and yeah, you did disparage my mom. I was the one who showed politeness, by not ripping your face off for it.
The controversy over pit bulls has nothing to do with their owners, and whether or not they’re training them correctly. If that were the case, you’d see the same percentage of bites and maulings by other breeds, but you don’t.
Statistically, these animals bite and attack more than any other breed of dog. That is simply a fact which outweighs anyone’s opinion on the matter, including yours.
From DogsBite.org:
“In the 11-year period of 2005 through 2015, canines killed 360 Americans. Pit bulls contributed to 64% (232) of these deaths.”

Dogsbitedotorg deliberately publishes false data and will not correct it when shown the facts.
I’d suggest looking at the http://www.nationalcanineresearchcouncil.com/
if you are interested in facts and not propaganda.
Look I get it, you’re a fanatical self-righteous hater of ‘pit bulls’
and you enjoy the sense of moral superiority it gives to you.
However did your dear Mother manage to survive owning not one but two of these devil dogs?
Given what you ‘know’ about these dogs wouldn’t the responsible thing to do
have been to remove the possible danger they presented to your mother?
Ripping my face off for it???
You’re sounding like the type of person that would own a pit bull.

Be that as it may, I feel some sadness that you are behaving this way.
I’ve been aware of you as a poster at FR for some time now
and I’ve always been glad you were a FReeper and valued your contribution.
I would have thought you, perhaps more than others,
would be cognizant of the dangers of arguing from the specific to the general.
Your type of response is closely akin to the hatred, bigotry
and generalizing that some folks use to target a particular racial group.
I’ll leave the last word to you unless there is a question you’d like to ask
and I hope we meet again in the future as comrades in the fight for Freedom.
