Do you think Billy Joe Mullet and Ghetto Bob are taking their backyard bred pit bulls to “The Golden Triangle Irish Setter Club” to have them temperament tested? I doubt it. If they did, the results would be skewed a bit. I’m betting the test candidates are brought in by people who are proud of them and work with them.

That's exactly my point.

There's nothing wrong with the breed. All the problems are caused by Billy Bob Badass and ghetto posers. If every pit bulll vanished off the Earth tomorrow the same idiots would wait until a rap video or an action movie (or the local newspaper) told them what the new badass killer dog was, and then they'd buy it and screw it up, too.

In fact, this breed is so calm and loving in capable hands that almost all of the dogs from Michael Vick's kennel were able to be placed for adoption with familes.

So, do we make decisions on this breed according to hysteria and the Alar-on-the-apples media, or do we use real, verifiable data?

True, and there are many of them, everywhere. Which means, they are a problem. In this story, they removed the woman’s calf, cheek, and chin, and left her arm looking like an eaten chicken wing. That’s a problem.
