According to truthguy’s statistics, pit bulls and rottweilers were responsible for 129 deaths over a five year period.

Please don't misquote me. These are NOT MY Statistics. They are data from very reputable sources. I didn't compile the data. You analogy about more people choking and dying from food than are killed by Pit Bulls is pathetic. That's about like saying more people are killed in traffic accidents than are murdered, so why are we so concerned about murder in our society.

Sorry, maybe I should have said 'the statistics that truthguy quotes.'

Your assertion that they are from a reputable source makes me smile, so I'll let it go.

If someone says 'I detest tire irons, because you could murder someone with one', how is it unreasonable to point out that statistically speaking, there's a much greater chance of dieing in a car accident than being murdered with a tire iron?

When I read his analogy my jaw dropped and I did a big ole WTF , is this a joke? Pathetic doesn’t even begin to describe it. I think it is possibly the dumbest post I have seen in at least a month.
