If someone wants to own a truly respectful dog that will for sure defend: Malinois.....used all over the world as Military dogs, can be taught number commands so nobody else can say"sick balls eddie!" go about 1500, but GREAT family pets, easy to train....no need in a Pit Bull

Pitbull apologists are the equivalent of Muslim apologists.
They're sweet and innocent... until someone gets killed

I've heard of cats laying on infants and suffocating them. Should they all be banned too? I'm not saying the possibility of aggressive dogs doesn't exist but come on man, parents have to be somewhat responsible here.

Instinct vs strength. If chiuahuas (sp) were the size of pitbulls, they would be the worst breed. Those frickers are mean as shite at 2-5 lbs.

Not saying your dogs will do anything, hopefully not, but they are apparently loving and good dogs until the snap and their killer instincts kick in. If you disagree, explain why we don't hear numerous stories about golden retrievers or labs killing people?
This pretty much sums it up for me. And yes, the parents were absolutely stupid in this situation.

It's really just a perfect combination that allows pitbulls to do shite like this. The breed is already (generally) more aggressive than other dogs. Combine that with the fact that a LARGE percentage of pitbull owners are some of the trashiest frickers you'll find in any community and you get tragedies like this.
I'm sure their are many pitbull owners who are good owners and their dogs never bother a soul. Likewise, I'm sure their are shitty owners who have some other breed that will attack every human they see. But for whatever reason, trashy people seem to gravitate towards pitbulls, which leads to a toxic combination.

Pitts should require a license similar to concealed carry, and the owner should be required to carry liability insurance.

I think we are on the same page. I can definitely agree that this breed is instinctively prone to aggression, but I think many owners can be successful raising them to be friendly family pets.
Caution should be used when leaving any child around just about any animal at that young of an age and I think more extreme caution should be used with more aggressive breeds.
Ultimately, I feel the parents are responsible and while it is a tragic story, it could have been avoided.

Scoob, the Parents Def own a big share of the responsibility but i kept my weapons out of reach from young child...until she became old enough for me to properly train her......12 even then i am still responsible with them! just an analogy, but a gun will not fire own it own... a Pit will strike own its own.

But would you leave your child unattended with a gun?

I agree, they had a choice. They decided to have aggressive dogs AND leave their child unattended. BOTH factors led to this terrible ending.

I agree. As I said, ultimately, the fault is that of the parents.
