Jeezus. It's things like this that remind me when I'm having a crappy day that it's really not all that bad.

What an ignorant statement. I know plenty of non trashy people who own pit bulls. Once again, it’s all about the owner, and how they raise the dog. If you are a trashy person, chances are your dog will be trashy.

Pits aren't even in the top 25 most popular dog breeds in America. Weird they are responsible for such a high % of attacks isn't it?


well this is stupid. This is popularity based on the number of dogs that are registered with AKC. I'm sure all of those responsible pit bull owners stay on top of their registrations.

you're an idiot if you don't think there are more pitbulls being owned in the US than are being reported by AKC

You think there are more pits in America than Golden Retrievers? Registered and unregistered?

Pitbulls are only 13% of the dog population but accounts for 50% of dog attacks.

well, now we're comparing an aggressive breed vs non-aggressive, so probably not. There are definitely more pitbulls than GSD or rottweilers & they are ranked #4 & #8.

That sounds familiar. You sure that isn't the statistic for another category?

What do you mean "now?" Here is your post I replied to

I have a friend who owns a pit bull, and that may be the sweetest dog in general, that I know. It’s all about how you raise them. Have to make them respect the owner, and they’ll listen to the owner.
What about the owners mother? Will it maybe rip her throat out and drag her mutilated corpse around?

Pit bulls are fricking trash and serve no purpose at all.

Pit bulls are like crotch rocket cycles. The people who should never own a pit are invariably the ones who do.

You're getting caught up in semantics instead of the actual point that I'm making.

There are a lot more pitbulls that are owned instead of other more expensive, less aggressive breeds. Hence, the increased number of deadly attacks.

Give me a number of pitbulls owned in the US vs GSD & rottweilers & that 284 number will look much smaller as a percentage.

This.

Of ALL the available breeds, why pick the one that is designed, purposefully mind you, to have the most potential for deadly destruction?

The answer lies somewhere in the psyche of the type of person that is drawn to the breed. This seems to be the same mentality of those that are drawn to outlandishly lifted or lowered vehicles, super loud sound systems, truck nuts, spinner rims, gold teeth, etc.

Basically a cry for attention and an attempt to compensate for feelings of inadequacy or low self esteem.

Common traits of most Trash.

Eh a mature male Rottweiler can do very much the same. Good dogs after they are broke, but if trained to protect....they are mutha fukkas

Research conducted by the University of Helsinki found that smaller dogs are more likely to behave aggressively, growl, snap, and bark compared to mid-sized and large dogs.


Yeah but a smaller dog isn't going to be able to rip my throat out of my body.

As a breed, there is no way you can defend a pit. They should be outlawed.
