Here ya go...broken down by breed and mixes through Feb 2005. Doesn't include all 15 or so Piticides that occurred in 2005 though. The problem is getting worse. Probably why the Pit breeders like to cite 15 year old stats.

I cannot access this site due to problems with adobe acrobat. I believe this is the same site you chose to use in an earlier post. But you have also said "doesn't include all 15 or so piticides that occurred in 2005" I would like to see where you got that number as well. I am not being mean, I am curious.

And I don't cite old stats. If you looked, the CDC stopped in 1999. That is only a few years old. But at the same time, they stopped doing these stats because even they couldn't in good consciense publish flawed statistics, knowing their effects would be negative to those around that are innocent.

Not to mention we still haven't addressed the 4 million, nine hundred eighty or so pit bulls that haven't done anything wrong. Can you imagine if we killed all the white males ages 18-35 simply because they're the number one rapist/serial killer? I would bet you and many others would have a big problem with that, as would I.

No, dogs aren't the same as people, but we tend to humanize them in an attempt to understand them better. Doesn't do any good. They're dogs. They are way less evil than we are. I don't even think it would be possible to number the amount of pit bulls we have brutally killed. And I'm not talking humane euthanasia, I am talking brutal, cruel, horrific murder. We are the only species capable of that.
