“...how can FReepers be so nanny-esc about Pit Bulls?”

There’s nothing nanny-anything about us or anyone else who is in opposition to the breed. There are countless, endless news stories about murderous pit bulls who’ve attacked, maimed or outright killed other dogs, children, adults and every other manner of living thing imaginable.

In the current political lexicon ‘nanny’ refers to things dims want the government involved with that most of us feel we can or should handle by ourselves. Pit bulls hardly fit within those parameters.

Or are you saying you could ‘handle’ a raging, homicidal pit bull all by yourself?

Yes, like I can handle a 38’.... I don’t need no nanny you big baby.... you need someone to change your diapers too?

Kids around here don't seem to have too many problems, but then when our kids are in the woods they are generally armed with at least a good pocket knife and more likely a firearm.

Any dog can wound or kill. Let's see, we finally got my bf's dog back. He spent 5 yrs as a guard dog, hooked to a tow chain. We finally had a place to keep him, so we got him. Every time we visited him, he was without water and food. He is becoming socialized slowly. He's an old doggie, but damn, he can do some damage. He bit straight through my 19 yr old's knuckle, and his 12 yr old step brother had a "hold muh beer and watch this, moment". That earned him 13 stitches on his face. I just say hiya, and the dog nuzzles my hand, and then he flops his 200 lb self on my feet. Don't try and hug a dog around its neck. The only time I have ever been bit, was by a toy poodle. I was just minding my business, hanging Avon brochures on people's doors, and this fiendish horrid thing grabbed my ankle. I flicked it into the middle of the street. I was paying more attention to the shephard mix, than that crappy, nasty little beast. Personally, I would rather face off a pit or a German Shephard than a f*cking poodle! Yorkies come in a close second. My cats would eat them
