It is most certainly typical of a breed bred to fight and kill, that they have the ability and PROPENSITY to .... gee, I don't know..... FIGHT AND KILL.
Labradors like to fetch. Boxers like to tackle. Australian Shepherds like to herd. PitBuls like to fight and kill. It really isn't any more difficult than that. A dog bred to a purpose generally enjoys that purpose, is built for that purpose, and has great ability in accomplishing that purpose.
The purpose a PitBull was bred for was to fight and kill.
Thus when those two dogs were loose for a minute, the very first thing they did was run out looking for something to fight and kill. They ran into a 70 year old woman; who according to the low brow, low class, morons who owned the dogs.... provoked them.
Please stop the personal attacks
Actually, this is typical of virtually everyone who has a child or dog who damages/harms/does other bad things. Most of the pit bull type dogs (there are several breeds which fall under this category and MANY mixed or randomly bred dogs who would be called pit bulls) I have encountered were friendly and easy going. I will agree that this type of dog can do massive damage if it wants to, but so can other large, strong breeds. The biggest problem is that a certain segment of society has decided that a big mean looking pitbull is a badge of honor, and they not only try to find the dog with the ugliest temperament they can, but they encourage bad behavior. How many pit bulls have you actually been around? How many have tried to bite you?

You know nothing about the breed.
They were bred to bait bulls and later to fight other dogs. But at both so called sports they were bred to be HANDLED BY HUMANS. Any dog who demonstrated any aggressiveness to people was culled and considered a breeding failure.
Do you know anything about the famous breeders of this dog? Who they are? Their breeding standards?
These breeders still exist and still adhere to these high standards of people friendly dogs.
Of COURSE the owner didn’t think it was his fault!! Basic human nature. There are bad owners (haven’t we established that already??) HOWEVER your belief that pits are trained just to fight and kill reflects a narrowly-held view without any science to back it up. If this is ALL the pit had ever done, don’t you think they would all have been killed by now and there would be NO good stories about them (THERE ARE - if you care to look), and NO ONE would have ANYTHING good to say about them WHATSOEVER???
Furthermore, you paint with a broad brush when you state that a specific behavior is “typical of Pitbull owners”. I suspect that while you have had some bad experiences, you really don’t have anything more on which to base your assumptions. You aren’t being fair-minded or open-minded and don’t care to be. Sadly, that is your choice, but keep in mind that such broad generalizations regarding what pit owners do or don’t do is not based in fact and shows a lack of integrity.
