You keep throwing the lib card out there...Yet your position is similar to that of AIDS activists failing to address that promiscous unprotected anal sex is the cause of the disease.

You don't seem to acknowledge the poor decision making that leads to nearly every one of these incidents. Buying a fighting breed and trying to pigeon hole it into the normal household pet role.

"You keep throwing the lib card out there ..."

... precisely because it's the most appropriate one.

Your position advocates running roughshod over the property and numerous other rights of the literally hundreds of thousands (or more) people who own dogs which you simply don't like the look of and who have never caused anyone a lick of trouble.

If, as one hopes, you can recognize liberal media bias in virtually every other area of its coverage, why is it you can't - or refuse - to see that so-called 'pit bulls' are its SUV's among dogs ?!?!?

To prove my point & since you seem to like finding news stories, just try to find one headed "German Shepherd attack" - even though we both well know same is hardly unheard of.

A minuscule percentage of all dogs of any type ever attack anyone or anything and, of the ones which do, the varying kinds lumped together as 'pit bulls' are still only a sizable minority.
(if the word "sizable" can even be rightly used in relation to such a comparably exceedingly small number!)

Any statist "shotgun" approach which clearly favors wholesale governmental intervention over individual accountability and wrongly penalizes the 99+% of owners and their pets which aren't responsible for any such attacks is - by definition ! - a liberal one because it can't be justified by either facts OR logic but only by feelings & emotions fueled by agenda-driven news coverage.

How dare you introduce AIDS and anal sex into an issue concerning devoted pet owners and their much loved and devoted pets. Your argument reminds me of how the Nazis stereotyped the Jews.
