Any breed of dog that has a tendency to turn even on its own owners like pits do, is not safe to have around.

Perhaps you have some evidence that normal, non-neglected, non-abused pits turn on their masters? I mean real evidence, not anecdotal evidence. Please cite cases with background information and/or studies.

You made the statement, now back it up.

The reactionary moral zealots don't need to justify their generalizations.
Do you sense the glee that these reports generate in some?
I count at least 9 posts so far comparing dogs to muslims.
That's the type of mentality exhibited on these threads.
Fanatic, emotional, ignorant, knee-jerking zealotry.
Where is the concern for deaths or injuries caused by other breed/types?
Who posted the thread about the 4 month old child killed the day before this incident?
Nobody!
While they posted their inane drivel on the 437 post thread
about a supposedly "sleeping" woman being attack
by two dogs chasing her JRT into the house...
Where was the thread about 16 month old killed two days previous?
Nowhere on FR!

Single issue, nanny-state solution suggesting, pseudo conservatives with no
exhibited concern for promoting personal accountability and responsibility.
All they got is 'ban 'em'. Useless as teats on a bull.

I see pit bull defenders have pit bull personalities.

Tell you what. Whenever you find stories about non-pitbulls that turn and attack their owners, abused or not, just post them for all to see, along with their attacks, maulings, and killings of other people.

I asked someone that once before and aside from the police dog story where it bit someone, there’s been a real dearth of stories.

I’ll be watching but NOT holding my breath.
