It's time we ban pitbulls

[Richard_Cuckold]

Enough is enough. These dogs are way too strong & unpredictable. Plus, they are normally owned by the wrong people. Deadly combo right there.

This latest pitbull attack is absolutely heartbreaking.

A 14-month-old Wisconsin boy has died after a brutal attack by a pair of pit bulls, authorities said on Thursday.
Police received a call from Susan Iwicki, 30, on Wednesday saying that she and the young boy were being attacked by the dogs, according to local NBC affiliate WMTV. Iwicki told police that she and the boy had each sustained injuries.

The boy died of his injuries at a Milwaukee area hospital later on Wednesday, the Walworth County sheriff’s office said, according to The Associated Press.
The boy had the “biggest eyes, great smile,” family friend Valerie Brylow told local affiliate WTMJ. “He was a great little boy.”
“He is adorable, absolutely adorable,” Nicole Jennison, another family friend told the station.
The boy’s name has not been released, and an investigation continues. Both of the pit bulls were removed from the property and euthanized on Wednesday, WMTV reported.
The fatal dog attack was the first in Wisconsin in a decade, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

So what's the point you are trying to make? Ban D-Bags? I'm on board!!!

Like breed of dog, it's probably wiser to select a woman to breed without that undesirable trait.

Women also turn on you when you least expect it.

Not a good analogy...

What I find interesting in this debate, is the fact that 99.9999999999999999999999% of all dog owners in the history of dog ownership would never ever admit to having a dangerous dog. At least until the dog does something dangerous. It's just astonishing the lengths some people will go to defend their asshole dog. Of course, not all dogs are assholes. But even owners of evil hellhounds straight from Satan's fenced in backyard will defend their dog to the ends of time.

"My dog is the sweetest most lovable cuddly animal in the world. See, it even plays with baby chicks and doesn't instantly devour them!"

It tells me that many people out there are either oblivious or in complete and total denial of what their dog is capable of.

You can say the same thing about people and thier children.

"My little boy or girl would never do [X]!"

Fill in [X] with whatever you like.

I'm all for canine equal rights.

The last canine I told a neighbor I would terminate with extreme prejudice if it ever were to return to my yard with my children at play was a mean little dirty yellow moppy bastard.

Ya THIS^
That was the situation with the pit mix I had to get rid of. It was my sig others and she was crazy. Finally I said the dog has to go. I was not going to risk this dog ever biting a small child.
They both left in the end
