Your Post was very good. People keep taking up for these animals and then you read yet another article of someone being mauled by them.
Freedom is fine, but I cant own a machine gun, why should I own a pit bull. I dont remember reading of another breed constantly that mauls kids and other animals.Certainly any group of dogs in a pack can be dangerous , but time and time again we read of pitbulls attacking.
Some say it is the way the animal is treated or trained, perhaps that has some credence, but time and time again the story reads , the dog was never aggressive before it ate the kid.
So then when you get rid of pit bulls, some other breed will be at the top of the most dangerous dog list. Should we get rid of them then also? Will this next group of owners be considered idiots too?
The thing that amazes me about this thread is how quickly some here give up freedom, and call other people idiots and want to punish them for not being as "smart" as they are.
