Pitbulls shouldn’t be banned. The owners should be held accountable for the actions of their dogs. Pitbulls are well known for being dangerous and it’s common sense to have an arrangement that mitigates the danger to the public. We don’t need any more nannystate intervention from the government...

Unfortunately, "commonsense" arrangements aren't being made, or we wouldn't have this discussion, right?

Pit bulls are dangerous. Any ban would remove the danger of attack.

Any "accountability" on the other hand is only applied after the fact.

I think Municipal regulation would probably OK. Pit bulls don't belong in apartment bldgs. However, a person in the country should be allowed to have a pit.

There's all kinds of things, when not used with common sense get people injured or killed. Like firearms. If we just ban firearms then we remove the danger of somebody getting killed. Accountablility for a criminal shooting an innocent person is only applied after the fact.
