It's just hard to get street cred with a weenie dog.

Now owning a particular canine breed is a marker of deviant behavior.

What happened to freedom?

Does the study advocate a ban on the bad dogs or the bad people?

A foul breed owned by a lot of foul people - imagine that. Joseph Wambaugh has written a new police novel. He describes something called "pit bull polo" played in LA. It's LOL stuff if you know how many of these dogs are four-legged filth...

...and THOSE type of people that drive beat up cars with expensive rims.

...or THOSE type of people that have pro-gun bumper-stickers.

Certain Colombiahn drug lords supposedly had attack-jaguars trained and ready. It was more of a prestige thing than anything else.

My understanding is that pit bulls are wonderful dogs if they are properly socialized, as is the case with all dogs. I think, too, that the dog on "The Little Rascals" was a pit. They are strong, and so the subhumans misbreed and mistreat them. I cringe when I read the ads for pit bulls in our local fishwrap. Funny, but I never read "a real lap dog, loves to cuddle!"

Couldn't this study be considered "PROFILING?"
