But the dog has tendencies. Can you at least agree with that? At least more so than other breeds

OK, they knew where I was when I was 6 because I was either in my yard or the next door neighbor's yard, but they weren't out there watching over me like a fricking hawk the way some think today. I played outside without parental supervision when I was 6. If you want to call bullshite, you can, but you're wrong.
Well, I called bullshite that your parents didn't know where you were most of the time and you affirmed that I was correct because your parents did know where you were.
So now, next question: would your parents have let you climb fences and go into neighboring yards when the people weren't home and there were dog(s) there, dangerous breeds in particular?
I would bet that they did not.

Other dogs can do that. And I'm pretty sure the dog in this story wasn't used for those purposes.
Well the dog in this story wasn't "bred to kill children" either, but that hasn't stopped you from repeating that agenda over and over ad nauseum.

Considering I live near a major highway, have no fence around my property, and I'm a responsible parent, probably around 8-10? That is something I would have to feel out as my child gets older. It was a different world 25 years ago, I always played outside by myself. I also knew not to go past a certain house on my street, or go into yards with dogs because that is their territory. Even at 6 yrs old I was aware of my surroundings, my parents made sure of that. The population has grown 10 fold since I was 6 yrs old, you can't just let your kids run around unsupervised anymore, it's irresponsible. Now if I had a fenced in yard, it may be a little different.
Yeah, it is a different world than it was 25 years ago, in that it's safer. Statistically we grew up in the most dangerous time to be a kid since the Great Depression. Kids should be allowed to get some damn exercise and bike around the neighborhood and play football or baseball with their friends without parents constantly over their shoulders. The only reason you believe the world is more dangerous is the mass media and their fear mongering that we didn't have to deal with as kids.

Since then, crime has declined significantly in the United States
I do not believe this to be true. I believe that crime is now under-reported because police chiefs and politicians want it to look like crime has declined so they appear to be doing a good job.

I live in America. Have you looked at the statistics on violent crime over the last 30 years? Or do you just watch Fox and local news?
what does the US violent crime rate have to do with my child's safety in my local area? Maybe I don't want my son playing near an extremely overpopulated highway. My girlfriends car got broken into last night over a phone charger and an Aux cable, and I live in a decent area of town. I've heard of deflection, but you're running out of ammo good sir. frick Fox news.

I'll say that every dog has an animal instinct and the amount of "wild animal" that comes through in the dog's actions is based on a case by case basis.

At age 6, probably not, but by 8 I was running around the neighborhood and cutting thru yards that had dogs. I'm fairly certain that there were times that the residents were not home, but I have no proof of that.
What do you consider a dangerous breed?

Do you agree that bull terriers contribute to more deaths than any other breed? Or all other breeds combined?

It's never been a better time to live on this planet. You only believe this due to the fact that you hear of discreet murders in Maine. The news wishes to scare the shite out of you, just for the ratings.

how do you hide murders?
or what about things like abortions and teen pregnancies?

Already paid it. Long time ago. I have never seen a dog bite case argued as an attractive nuisance. But then again, I don't handle dog bites.

So many posts have referred to trespassing
If the kid had played with the dog a bunch before, maybe the neighbor didn't care if the kid came in his yard
It's kind of jumping the gun to call the kid a trespasser
Now obviously the dog doesn't know if the kid has an open invite

No
I believe that due to the ignorance (and I don't mean that in a negative way) of the people doing the reporting, a lot of dogs get called pitbulls without that being the case. News reports get ran that say "pitbull mix" when they're just saying that without any actual knowledge of the breed.

Sorry sir, but my hometown has not by any means, become more safe. I don't even watch the news on tv.

No, it's a pit bull, and I know it's in its nature to snap and for it to be incredibly violent. It is simply irresponsible to leave a kid with a pit bull.
