Posted by Zach Been a few years since I brought this up. Here is the latest news: pit bull attacks 1. Pit Bulls are responsible for most dog attack deaths. And it isn't close. 2. The breed is banned in the UK for the above mentioned reason. 3. Why do black people like pit bulls so much? I've only known one white guy with a pit and he admitted that he had to give the dog tranquilizers. I'm hoping that a bunch of posters up in here go with "it's not the breed, it's the owner" argument. Been hearing that for 40 years and I've got a few hundred responses. Reply Back to Top |
| I used to say it was the owner, but there have been so many unprovoked attacks it's hard to keep believing that. Reply Back to Top |
| I'm white. I had a Pit Bull when I was younger. He died of old age and never harmed anyone. Reply Back to Top |
| Are you serious??? I know wayy more white people with pitbulls. Black(most that I know) people are afraid of dogs. Go on campus Friday evening and see how many people are walking their pits. Edit because of over generalization. This post was edited on 5/2 at 5:36 pm Reply Back to Top |
| I think people like them because they look awesome. Reply Back to Top |
| It's not the breed, its the owner. Just kidding. Blacks tend to go for the fiercest, most feared animal. Personally I think the majority of them are piss poor dog trainers because they enjoy having the animal for show. Someone should look up the amount of animal abuse related arrests involving pit bulls, and take note as to which demographic is most involved.

| Friend of mine, who is white, has a pit. Calm as any other dog I've ever been around. Reply Back to Top |

Wow, that is a pretty damning indictment of pitbulls. Not sure what this has to do with black people, though. When I lived in Hawaii, I saw a LOT of Samoan dudes wearing T-shirts with pitbulls on them. Pitbull reverance isn't a black/white thing. It's a wanna be super bad arse male thing. Check out this Hawaii kennel: LINK Too lazy to search, but I bet Hawaii has a greater percentage of pitbulls than most other U.S. states do. And Hawaii has very few black people (POTUS a notable exception!). This post was edited on 5/2 at 5:58 pm Reply Back to Top |

quote: Friends of mine, who are white, had a pit puppy... well trained, calm, and obedient... until baby boy got too close one day to puppy's feeding bowl. Fortunately, we were close enough to react. Pit puppy brought to an animal shelter the very next day. It's not the owners, it's the breed. How many stories of pit bull owners attacked by their own dogs do we have to hear before people understand? Reply Back to Top |

JK and I know it is not a pit bull. Reply Back to Top |
quote: Chow Chows, Dalmatians, and Chihuahuas top most "do not let near your baby" lists. I'm not saying that Pits aren't aggressive. I'm not saying that all dog breeds are the same. I simply believe the "inherent aggression" of pits is overblown. This post was edited on 5/2 at 5:54 pm Reply Back to Top |

| I've been around two pits... Both honkey owners, no.1 the typical hipster type who bought the dog because it went against the norm... Dog was very sweet, looked pretty badass also. No.2 is a scumbag relative..dog is a piece of shite who I wouldn't allow within a mile of kids. Been that since it was a puppy. I believe people get them for two reasons... First they are badass mean muthafrickers that look the part... Second is some ironic anti establishment point they want to make. This post was edited on 5/2 at 5:57 pm Reply Back to Top |
