Is she bald ?

Seems that pit bulls can be socialized to be naughty or nice but it appears that many pit bulls still have the destroy gene.

No way to discern which genes they have so I’m all for pitbulls not being pets.

And I’m a dog lover.

ya know, I think at this point, I would rather get rid of pit bull owners than pit bulls. Pit bulls should be legislatively classified as destructive devices at the federal level and regulated as such. It looks to me like 9 times out of 10, the common denominator in a pit bull attack is an owner that wouldn’t be allowed to own a firearm let alone a destructive device. This 12 month old puppy chewed a babies toes off. It is a destructive device. If I can’t own a street sweeper shotgun without massive amounts of government red tape, these dirt bags shouldn’t be able to own these dogs.

This puppy was young enough that it would not have known the difference. It cannot be compared to adult dogs displaying aggression, as puppies are known for their destructive chewing habits. This incident had nothing to do with the breed of dog, and everything to do with the druggie parents who apparently didn’t even hear the baby screaming. Chewing toes off takes some time. That baby suffered for a while before the parents “came down” and noticed. The puppy was doing what all puppies do, and was killed because people are ignorant. An eight week old pup is not vicious, it’s as mature (not as smart) as a three-year old child.

I think she's just rying to revitalize the Renaissance look with the high forehead...

I don't agree with the “destroy gene” theory. All dogs that have been breed irresponsibly will have dogs that are undesirable and should be culled.
Point in case is the Brittany spaniel that bit me a couple of years ago. The dog was obviously neurotic and the owner admitted that.
If a dog has a genetic problem it is easy to identify by observing its behavior.
