Oh I see....only qualified expert Pit Bull owners can identify Pit Bulls, despite the fact that Pits are overepresented in Animal control visits, in the shelters and being shot by police. The authorities are wholly unfamiliar with them.

It's a mythical problem and everyone should run out a buy a Pit Bull...Are you a breeder btw?

No to both:
As stated earlier above, I'm a cat owner (who hasn't even had a dog since I was a kid well over 40 years ago).
My position is simply that law-abiding conscientious people have a crystal clear right to possess any sort of dog they wish while the state has every right to go after those who - especially willfully and/or negligently! - cross the line between liberty & license.

I don't own any guns either but, as a philosophical conservative, I absolutely endorse gun-owners rights on precisely the sane basis.

To me, everyone on this thread who is attacking the countless responsible dog-owners with well cared for and well trained pets merely to satisfy a totally justifiable urge to punish a small negligent minority is lowering themselves to the level of knee-jerk liberals who'd arbitrarily take away their guns.
