Meh. Unpopular opinion, but these bans serve the public. The breed has a well deserved reputation for violence, severe bodily injury and even killing children and the elderly and other dogs. It isn't without reason.

They're untrustworthy, and seem to be the favored dog of white-trash Americans who hate their neighbors and the government. (totally sterotyping there, but hey - I call it like I see it)

I get that breed bans are unfair for lovers of the breed, but its not about you. Its about the rest of us who don't trust pits, don't want them in our neighborhoods, and don't want them in our dog parks.


504 documented attacks going back to 1883. You can look at pictures of many of the children they killed - see their faces - and maybe understand why these bans happen.

Sorry, but a few bad apples have ruined it for the rest of you.

For example:

Quote:
Hunter died of “sharp and blunt force wounds of the neck” and “multiple blunt and sharp force injuries of [his] head,” states the medical examiner’s report. Injuries to his head and face included “sharp and blunt force wounds” inflicted on the boy’s face and scalp. The pit bull repeatedly attacked the boy until it executed the killing bite. Our hearts go out to Hunter’s father, who will live with witnessing the horrific destruction this pit bull inflicted on his son for the rest of his life.
