How does one promote the peaceful nature of pitbulls while still ignoring the mauling and deaths by pitbulls?
“cognitive dissonance” Just because other pitbulls have killed or mauled children doesnt mean mine will....
Sorry...I'm a "realist"...meaning I base my view of reality...upon reality.....I'm not willing to take the damn chance that a pit wont maul my children, or a neighbor....because they are sweet and roll over to have their tummy scratched.... But too many ignorant people will....and then later claim they had no idea that pitt would be capable of mauling a child. nope......you have been warned....ignore the warning at your own peril....or at the peril of someone you love. Dont play innocent later.
I would then heartily suggest you take your own advice and never own a dog.
Because, dear heart, ALL dogs have teeth.
All dogs can bite.
All dogs can kill.
Every dog on earth has that potential, even the “tiny” ones.

Do not seek to “warn” me or accuse me of “ignorance”.
You have *no* idea whom you are dealing with.
