To: familyop; Chet 99

familyop, are you really Chet99? He would post these pit bull threads EVERYDAY. I agree that they seem to be dangerous, but as has been pointed out many times by Freepers, it the training from their owners that determines the “dangerousness” of the dog.

Not seem to be...honest to God they seriously are. Pits are even involved in 5 or 6 X more fatal attacks than Rotweillers. It comes from being bred for dogfighting. The owners may be ultimately at fault but it is too often innocent victims that pay the price.

What has been posted by “many Freepers” is demonstrably false.

Certain breeds, of which pit pulls top the list exhibit certain breed specific tendencies among which are aggressiveness and high fear thresholds.

Under IDEAL circumstances they can be for the most part trained to control those inherent tendencies.

Most are not trained however by a professional and are NOT managed under “ideal circumstances. This amounts to a loaded gun with a hair trigger being wielded by someone who has virtually no firearms training.

Many FReepers don’t believe this lie. Many FReepers have noted the routine killings and maulings and excuses. Some FReepers post these articles to combat the myth that it is the owners, not the dogs because they want to bloodshed to stop.

No.

"He would post these pit bull threads EVERYDAY."

Incidents of people being mauled by pit bulls happen often. I tend to pay more attention to foreign relations, politics and other topics.

If I wanted to, I could probably find stories about pit bulls mauling people nearly every day by searching the Net for them. All one needs to do is to follow the site rules to avoid being banned.
