Cop TASERs Pit Bull Attacking Family
- Thread starter The Joker
- Start date
The study found that Pit bulls and Rottweilers alone accounted for 67% of deaths
Right in the middle of the article...
I'm done arguing with you, you have turned this personal and I am taking the high road...I think these dogs should be outlawed, I'm done here....have a nice day
So you lied about what it said the first time? I didn't read the article but I'm assuming that I'm correct in my assumption regarding data? That why your done with the discussion. I'm once again correct, not because i called you a dumbass. You don't fool anyone. I thought I was quite pleasant.
Regardless, don't advocate for laws governing my liberties unless you at least try to understand the topic.
Hope that helps,

Yea it can happen with every breed but with most breeds the dog has a bad episode it results in just being bitten. But with a pitbull the risk for being maimed for life or killed skyrockets! Especially with children. Its a proven fact. Sure its sensationalized but that is because a child gets torn to shreds or is killed. I love the hell out of dogs but facts are facts. I would not let my grandchildren near a pitbull.
Facts are facts, but the skyrocket comment is not one. You're speculating whether you care to admit it or not. There is no study ever done that says anything if the sort.
I don't think that you are under any obligation to bring your grandchildren around any dog.

You are probably right. Lets go with significantly higher. I love dogs more than most people. The unconditional love and loyalty dogs have enhanced my life with is immense. I am sure pit bulls are loving loyal dogs. But yes there are recorded statistics that reflect the fact that the Pit does maim or kill at a much higher rate than any other dog. Fact

There has to be SOME data out there that both sides of the argument can agree on. ALL of the data can't be skewed. To say ALL of the data collected is wrong (or that all the data is accurate) is a cop out.
I'd like to go back to a question I raised earlier. What percentage of attacks from a certain breed is acceptable to everyone? If you told me that 1 out of 1000 of a certain breed where involved in an attack/bite I would say that is too many regardless if it was a "bully type" or lab.
I'd also like to ask another question of the group. Why do people choose "bully types"? There are plenty of dogs that display the same great traits known in bully type breeds. I am not slamming anyone. So please don't read that tone in my post. I believe people choose pit bulls to be rebellious, as kind of a "fuck you" to society, "I'll buy whatever dog I want." That is just my impression.
There is no doubt that the media takes the easy way out and fills their air time with stories of pit bull attacks instead of doing some real work. Pit bulls do get more negative attention than other breeds that also attack. Frankly I'm sick of the stories. Instead of sending the reporter to the crime scene they should send them to research the records of the local authorities in their state.

The only data that matters to me is the fact that I don't hear any news stories of other breeds of dogs killing their owners or the neighbors kids. If any breed of dog killed a person, I think the media would run with it.
Maybe its the media, but I did a quick Wiki research and it appears a majority are either a Pit Bull or Pit Mix.
Are there good Pit Bulls, sure, with so many other options, I'll pass.
I work with them PaSprint so I may have different reasons to love the breed and advocate for them than others. Friday a beautiful Pitt pup was brought in near death as the owner had strangled the dog until it passed out and took scissors to his ears and lopped them off. Then put duct tape over it put him outside and went to work. For several days the dogs ears went untreated and are infected. Luckily a friend alerted me to it and the dog is clinging to life. Friday he licked my hand and tried to wag his tail. All the puppy wants to do is love and be loved n even after all that abuse done to him by humans.
So I guess my answer to you sprint is that I think the acceptable level of bites from a specific breed for me would be directly proportional to the level of acceptable animal abuse.
Moreover, the pertinence of the subject to society is negligible. Aren't we all suppose to be protesting the horrors of domestic and child abuse? I mean I'm sure that several posters in this thread that were so upset about those social events that their picket line walking days are still booked. I wouldn't want to think that their anger has abated as the media coverage does.

Guys, guys, let's think rationally about this. All of mankind is wrong on this one, the 100 or so FDCs of the world surely have it right.
First of all, how pretentious and conceited are you dude? You really think you're on the side of mankind? You're the one that has it right because of what Saint, because you're almost a doctor (dentist)?
I promise you I am far more educated and read on the issue than you! I do work with them and am fully certified to train and work with exactly that type of animal. How full of shit are you to think that 7.999 billion or whatever the fuck it is sides with you simply because you say so.
Dick.
I really like how you try to include yourself in your perceived majority though.

Ummmmm, I'm being objective. Do you not have a single literate family member that can explain what being objective means.
The best part of this is that right after i sent these two of my fosters got in a fight and my hand got caught in the middle and i have some good puncture wounds again. The pitty was not involved either. Chow and husky
