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.

It went on for 2 1/2 pages n00b.

And yes, it started another extrememly productive pitbull argument. I don't mind or anything. Just was surprised at how many people have responded to the OP as if he was a real person.

German Shepherds are too dangerous! /1970s

Rottweilers are too dangerous! /1980s

Pit Bulls are too dangerous! /2000s


Any guesses which breed is next to be "dangerous"?

This is what you call prima facie evidence that pit bulls are dangerous.

The pit bull lovers refuse to acknowledge this, but the fact is that pit bulls are dangerous because they have such a powerful bite. All it takes it one second in the lifetime of the dog for a tragedy to occur.

A few years ago I had a Yorkie who was the most gentle dog in the world. One day we were playing, and the most gentle dog in the world suddenly bit me on the hand. He immediately realized what he had done, looked me in the eye with the most human look I've ever seen on a dog, and then he ran like hell. His bite didn't even break the skin. If that Yorkie had been a pit bull, I'd have pulled back a bloody stump. And instead of running away, he may very well have decided to just finish me off, because pit bulls are known to do that and have the strength to do that. If my Yorkie had tried to finish me off, I'd have picked him and thrown him against the wall.

Some animals are just too dangerous to have in a home, especially a home with children or in a neighborhood with children. I don't give a shit about the anecdotal evidence people provide about their personal pit bulls who were perfect little angels and the bestest dogs ever. 99% of them may be, but the 1% who are killers make the breed too dangerous to have as pets. It's trivially easy to find reports of children killed by the family pit bull. Invariably the parents are hysterically sobbing "But he was the most gentle animal ever! He never bit anyone ever ever before!"

Banning pit bulls is nothing like banning guns. An unattended gun won't escape from its pen or jump a fence and kill people. Pit Bulls can and do.

Hog Farmer nailed it when he said "Guns don't kill people. Pit bulls do.".

Im a pit lover, but its pretty obvious they picked the smallest, skinniest pit they could find for that. It looks more like a Jack Russel. Needless to say I failed.

Whoever said pits are dumb dogs is dead wrong. Pits are one of the smartest, and most loyal breeds in the world.

I've done hospital time from a cow, so has my mother and I know other people as well.
If they count rodeo bulls I'm certain it's true.

The difference? Being killed by a cow is an occupational hazard. If you're not in a pen, barn or trailer with a cow, it cannot harm you.

People let dogs sleep with their children.

I completely believe that other breeds bite lots of people. I also completely believe that when certain breeds bite people, they do a shit load more damage. Jack Russel's are dickhead dogs and bite a lot of people, but you don't see a lot of missing faces and plastic surgery from them.

I always see the conflict from Pit supporters. They're the most loyal, intelligent, loving creatures to ever grace the earth, yet, I see posts in this thread suggesting traits for Pit ownership to get their respect. Don't know too many children with those traits.

doesn't answer the question. And on a percentage basis there are millions more cows than Pitt Bulls anyway. Plus we eat cows so it's justified.

Im a big pit fan, but I will admit letting a pit that you havent raised yourself since a pup sleep with your kids isnt very smart. However, a pit that was raised around a child since it was a pup and raised correctly is no more dangerous than a rott, GS, or a chow.
