What were the other 10 dogs. These dogs are only as dangerous as the people that train them or inbred them.

Ah, you unwittingly admitted they can be naturally bad ("inbred" - which of course is not why they're bad, but it is genetics).

Pit-bull types DO have a genetic problem, but I am totally against bans. Alot because being living beings, most "experts", even, have no clue what kind of dog they're dealing with. God forbid it is a mutt. I refuse to surrender a dog because Idiot thinks it's a "pit bull", when it's not, or it's not even officially documented. People are too stupid to ban living beings whose heritage is questionable.

When I was on vacation before Christmas last year, I had to whip a black lab to stop him from attacking a woman. She walks her two dogs - one German Shepard and a terrier - and usually takes them around our block or down the golf course.

I was outside working and heard her screams. I ran across the road and got between her and the lab. The terrier pulled out of his leash, but the lab kept coming at her. I finally picked up a short pipe that was in the ditch and took a few swings at the lab. I got one good lick on his back. He finally took off running.

If you've never seen fear in a person's face, you should have seen her. She has changed her walk route, and doesn't go around the block anymore. This dog did not have a collar. I haven't seen the dog since that attack.
