Nope; and my original point is correct. Not even man-hunting Mastiffs display the kind of random neurosis that people insist has been bred into the pit bull.
I have a problem when I'm told to agree to
a term like strong likelihood or the discussion is over.
What the heck does strong likelihood mean?
It needs to be quantified.
Compared to what? Under what circumstances?
How many instances compared to the total population?
How do other breeds react in similar situations?
It is too nebulous a term with which to agree or disagree.
Irrelevant. Hunting humans and fighting are two different behaviors. You may as well say that my westies haven't displayed the desire to grab babies by the neck and shake them like rats - golly gee! Case closed!
I refuted your original point. Breeds of dogs follow what they were bred to do. I have a friend w/ a boarder collie. He has told me of it herding his children at the park. Whoa, he is SUCH a bad dog owner for letting that happen. The dog must have been abused. Proper training, love and discipline would stop that, I’m sure! /sarc.
Random neurosis? Please give me the post numbers here that cite things pit bulls haven't done. You seem to be reading a lot more into what you and others wrote than what is here. I have no interest in rolling in every thread where you have debated this topic.
You may imagine people are accusing pit bulls of grabbing an AK47 and gunning down the whole family in order to gnaw on (longelegant)legs and lap up blood, but I'm responding to what was written on this thread.
