Not much in life is guaranteed. Someone could throw a coconut at me, and kill me. But as far as risks go, I’m really quite certain that the risk of a person throwing a coconut at me is nowhere near as great as my children being killed by a pit bull.
I know people want to change the argument, to make this about something different. I’m trying to stay focused on the rediculous claim that people shouldn’t be afraid of pit bulls because “they are more likely to be killed by coconuts”. It was a stupid argument, and every reply to me has pretty much proven that it was a stupid argument.
Quite right. A pit is violent by nature, just like a lion or leopard. Its in their DNA. This is a given. Certain dogs are predisposed to certain behaviors and tasks. This is undeniable. Not all pits are aggressive but I wouldn’t allow my child anywhere near them. Especially those I see here in San Antonio. The typical pit owner is a thug (not all). It’s no wonder they’re adored by Rappers and Hip Hoppers, it’s their dog of choice. This says a lot. Just check out their CDs. There’s usually a couple of bitches on the cover, a pit bull bitch and the other variety.
