So what makes what she said factually incorrect?

ETA: If she were saying that pitbulls are responsible for all dog attacks and used her personal experience as proof, that would be anecdotal. We're focusing on when she said that all of the kids she's treated have been the result of pitbull attacks. To which you replied "factually incorrect" (which is funny because there is no possible way for you to know) and you're throwing in anecdotal for some reason.

See I love dogs in general. And have met pitbulls and mixed breeds with pit in them that were total sweethearts. I personally though would never have a pit or pit mix as a pet myself. But that is just my own personal opinion. I don't necessarily agree with banning them outright, but I do think more education on the breed is needed. And would just like owners of those dogs to realize that if they choose to have such an animal...they realize how dangerous they could be to a child and be more aware.


Like with any dog...they have the ability in them to snap. After all, they are still an animal. No animal is 100% predictable. But because of the way their jaw is....they have more power than other breeds and have the ability to cause some serious damage.

sorry for having beautiful registered dogs that can be safely taken to the park where there are children and other pets.

"All" is factually incorrect.

Anything else?

My dog can be off leash in many of those areas you speak of. In Boulder, where we have educated residents and compotent government officials, we get to have nice things like the voice and sight program with no breed specific laws involved. We also don't have to deal with people ignorant enough to make these type of sweeping generalizations such as yourself

That's as subjective as pit bulls being trashy.

Her response was "evidence" of why someone else's statement was incorrect. Like words, context matters. Learn it.

This really isn't that hard....

probably have a lot less ignorant minorities who actually train and discipline their pets as well. in Houston, that's few and far between.

i'll still take mine in a race over your mongrels in any part of the world.

You bring your dog in for a test that he/she can be controlled off leash using only voice commands and sight. If the dog listens well and obeys your commands, it gets a little green tag that gives it all kinds of freedom and ability to be off leash legally. It's awesome and one of many reasons Boulder is way ahead of these clown cities banning a breed out of fear and stupidity

Then blame the actual root cause, which is exactly what you said here from my experience. Bad dogs come from shitty owners, but of course there are exceptions to the rule

That's pretty cool. When you first said it, I thought your dog was a certified blind person dog.

On a related note, I just started getting into duck hunting. Watching a duck dog work is a thing of beauty.

The goalposts are still standing. Go back and check them out again. Ask questions if necessary. You're welcome.

Who said anything about knocking the goalposts down? Learn to read. They're still standing, just moved to a different location.

I don't know. I didn't.

I was just letting you know they're still there, if you want to go back and look.

You still haven't explained how she was factually incorrect. Which is how this whole thing got started.

I can see how the wording makes it confusing.
