I may be one of the few that support a ban on this breed nationwide. I know that the animals are not naturally aggressive. I also know that a lot of people get pitbulls because they are “badass” dogs.
When one of those “badass” dogs gets pissed off, people get hurt. Much worse than if a shepard or Doberman attacked.
The pitbull breed was developed solely for dog fighting. When they bite, it is much worse than most other dogs.
Pitbulls are naturally aggressive. Not all the time, but it’s like there’s a switch that goes off, and sweet family pet turns into Cujo. I’ve seen it happen, and you’re right, the result is carnage.
When one of those badass dogs gets pissed off fall into the wrong hands, people get hurt. Much worse than if a shepard or Doberman attacked it's an assault rifle.
The pitbull breed was Guns were developed solely for dog fighting killing. When they bite shoot, it is much worse than most other dogs many other weapons, such as knifes.
(Your "logic", applied to other things.)
Do you support a nationwide ban on AR-15 rifles because so many people consider them to be “badass” guns?
But the law sticks Rotties in there, which were NOT developed solely (or at all) for dog fighting.
I actually do not support bans. Not because I trust pit-bulldog types, but because mistaken identity can happen too much. Especially since it is not a “breed” we are talking about, but a type. There are many pit-bulldog-terrier breeds. Some are generally good, some are generally bad. Mutts muddle all the questions, including identity as well as trustworthiness.
I agree with you. The Pitbull is not a good companion breed. The Blacks get these dogs because they feel empowered to have a bad azz dog. They could get a German Shepherd. Colorado has had a ban on them for years according to Mr. GGs. There are a lot of dogs that will protect you and your kids without being so unpredictable. In Atlanta they are everywhere. I wish we could get rid of them here.
