Because for me personally its free Republic wolf pack behavior like Howlin and Siinkspur and their little gang used to pull around here
Non stop daily pit bull hate threads that go mad hominem on detractors immediately from folks who all the know about dogs beyond foo foo lap dogs is the sensationalism they read
Many here want a world where anything possibly unsafe is banned and everyone jailed
Like statists
Chetnorski posts nothing about other dog attacks which are significant
Pit bull attacks are more common because they are more common
I live in a rural area on acreage
My dogs arent your business or anyone elses unless they start killing calves
Ive owned over a dozen dogs from shepherds to Rotts to pits to hog hunting bulldogs to Dobies to giant schnauzer to duck dogs and treeing hounds and one Catahoula
Only one ..a bulldog ever bit anyone didnt have it coming
Were not all cat ladies or teacup people
And I have cats too and horses
And. Like chihuahuas and frenchies
Hmmm, so there’s daily non-stop pit bull attack threads?
Maybe that’s because there’s non-stop daily pit bull attacks on people?
Can you see a pattern here?
Your dogs ARE my business if you don’t live in a rural area WITH ACERAGE!
I live in the city, sort of suburbs, and when I walk my dog. We don’t have coyote or bears that I need a pit bull to protect me from. I don’t live in the hood either.
No one is telling you what to do. I’m Not a statist for wanting reasonable zoning laws.
Just because I want SOME community agreed laws does not mean I’m for total govt control.
Btw, there are many laws that keep my taxes down...like seat belt laws so I don’t have to pay taxes for someone thrown from a car ending up in a nursing home at age 25.
News flash.
We don’t live in a society anymore where you decide to “ feel free” doing whatever you want and no one but you picks up the tab.
*And* the reason they are currently so “popular” has roots in the economy.
If I go looking for a Dobe pup, it’s $500, bottom price, and more usually, well over $1500 and up.
However, if I wanted a “pit bull”, I can go get one for $50, sometimes free.
People often get them because they’re cheap and plentiful.

Now there’s a vicious dog right there. Hardest bite power per square inch but luckily, not many square inches. And they used to run in packs. Imagine 100s of little needle like teeth all biting you at once. Like dry land piranhas.
