Wow...Pit bull attacks do happen, but i agree, yes, little kids shoudnt be near pit bulls that are adopted, but if you buy a pitbull as a puppy and raise it with your family, the chances of it attacking you are very unlikely. Its just so many people say "OMG PITBULLS ARE BAD" because underground fighting pitbulls were taken, then ADOPTED by ignorant people, that dog was trained to kill, any dog can be trained to kill.

Seriously, and the people that adopt the pitbulls in the pound that were taken from the crack heads, just let them loose. Then i agree, those specific pitbulls are dangerous, but if you buy a pitbull as a puppy, bring it up and care for it, it will be a tame dog.

Just dont believe when someone says when they say "pitbulls are teh dangoorus cuz teh girl got teh mauled!!1"

I just wish so many people werent so ignorant about this subject...

I bet if FOX news said "PITBULLS ARE NOW THE CALMEST DOG" everyone would believe them, but one person in this forum said he got attacked by a pitbull, (well 2 people actually), but they still respect the pitbull, one said he woudnt own one, fine with me, and he deserved my respect by not bashing the pitbull and saying "IT SHOULD BE RESTRAINED" , and same with Honkyjoe, he doesnt blame the breed, but the owner.

Even if you dont like the pitbull, doesnt mean its justified to throw it in the pound and kill it.

Well I think just the statistics of the amount of attack and what not from them are a high reason for them being called vicious, I mean every dog attack you here of is from a pit bull, I know family and friends who have had troubles with pitbulls, them just seem to be naturally vicious dogs.SaintLeonidas

A chiuaha is more vicious than a pitbull

Because ports = money

BUT I still think the PC wins, the graphics can be higher, keyboard and mouse controls, and who can forget mods and torrents?

Pit bulls attacks on humans are growing every year They are dangerous and a menace to people so they should be restraindelol

Right, and it has nothing to do with lousy owners, just one day a pit bull wakes up and says "IM GONNA GET ME SOME HUMAN"

You have no idea what your talking about, you probably never even saw a pit bull in real life.

Are you out of your mind? Have you ever even had one? They're so smart and they love so easily.

I had a half breed Pitbull/German Shepard but I'm pretty sure that doesn't count. My uncle owns 3 pitbulls and while they are loyal to their owners they are very vicious towards everyone else. My aunt also had a pitbull that attacked me when I was younger so it could be a bias but I absolutely despise that breed. If you want to know a breed that definitely gets more flack than it deserves is Rottweilers. My Rotty is amazing and she is so gentle towards everyone.

ALL DOGS do that if they are stuck up in a house with no experience with other humans, german sheperds are more vicious than pit bulls.

I have been twice bitten by a pit bull. They are aggressive dogs but som are many others and they are very loyal. I respect them but I dont like them.honkyjoe

Atleast you respect them, america needs more people like you. And a person above said pit-bulls are an ego-stroke, to some extent, but they are very loyal dogs and they think your the best in the world.

Exactly. They are extremely loyal, they arent crazy, but seeing as the person that thinks they are vicious and crazy, is ignorant enough to believe whatever the news tells them, just dont bother with them.

Right, because all pit bulls are on a mission to kill all humans.

Ive been wondering on this subject for a while now, and...Why are pit-bulls illegal?

I have a pit bull (I live in canada, so its legal) But america outlaws them and calls them dangerous! Seriously, and people say "THEY WERE TRAINED AND BREED TO KILL" yeah? Well POODLES were french gaurd dogs, they are more vicious than ANY pit bull, how ignorant are people these days? Pit bulls are loving dogs, the only reason they are used in dog fighting is because a bunch of druggies want a quick fix of crack and they put their pitbull in the ring because of its size and its LOYALTY to the owner, it will do ANYTHING for the owner.

It just makes me SICK to my stomach when i hear someone say "Pit bulls are vicious creatures" and its people like THEM that support this trend, its people like THEM that are the reason hundreds of pit bulls are dying in BSL shelters, and its people like THEM that arent doing **** to stop it, but they walk around hot-headed saying "WE DID THE RIGHT THING. ALL PIT BULLS ARE NO GOOD KILLERS"

It just disgusts me how easily the american people can be persuaded with little to no effort, now dont get me wrong, I dont hate america, but every damn country has it's flaws, and when i point one out, im labled anti-america and told to "GTFO", so this is NOT made to bash america.

Now, tell me that these creatures are vicious dogs, ITS THE OWNERS FAULT. Pit bulls are not vicious.. they're not, its the druggies! I guess thats how society works, a small group of people **** up and the whole country has to pay for it.

Does anybody support legalization of pit bulls, and AT MOST, the pitbull can be checked up on every now and then by the SPCA or something, but dont kill these innocent beings, I dont live in america, but i hope you americans do something to stop the slaughter of hundreds of pit bulls a day in your country.
