When are they either going to eliminate the breed or the Breeders?

When will we stop allowing people whom can't rear their own children from buy/getting these dogs?

This trash breed serves no purpose other than to terrify people...They should all be gathered up and put down..outlawed..and severe penalties for those that continue to own and breed them...they are a menace to public safety

I think that the owners should be held completely responsible just as if they were the ones who dod the attack.

I believe that any pit or large dog that is loose and not in control of the owner should be fair game for ccw permit holders and police shotguns.

That's an interesting point Lazs. There are already many laws on the book that hold owners responsible for the actions of Wild Animal, and even Wolf-dogs. I don't think that it is too far of a stretch to add certain Breeds of domesticated dogs to the list.

It wouldn't make the dogs illegal, but might make people think twice about the responsibilities of owning such a dog.

and that is my point.. the responsible owners who, for whatever reason, own these dogs should not be punished before they commit a crime.

Some of these dog owners don't bother to think once, much less twice.

Theses are the same type of morons that go screaming down a residential street at 60 MPH while dozens of kids are playing on the sidewalk. (Seen this hapen all too often on my own street)

Face it. Most people do not think about the possible consequences of their actions. Just like a Pit bull owner, a guy speeding down the street never stops and thinks how totally destroyed his life would be if he hit a kid.

I really have no faith in people anymore.

I'm still waiting for the pitbull owner to show up to defend with...

"They're not all like that. I have one and it's like a baby and very loving"

A little preemtive strike....NO MATTER WHAT TRAINING YOU GIVE A DOG..NO MATTER HOW THEY SEEM TO BE...YOU CAN NEVER OVERRIDE INSTICT!

These dogs are mean and agressive by instict..therefore a menace and should be outlawed.

doesn't matter... we can't all have our freedom restricted to the lowest common denominator or we would all be drugged and in straight jackets.  Or.... gunless like the brits...

I would feel good about felony laws for pit and large breed attacks knowing that some 2 time losers might do 30 years or more on the next felony.   even the idiot criminal crowd gets the message...

I'm trying to train my wife's chihuahua to be an attack dog. We have the ferocious bark part down but we haven't gotten over the squeal and pee on the carpet if any sudden moves are made towards her.

:rofl

You should fear my Dachsund.

Why anyone would want a really big dog is beyond me.

First, the bigger the dog, the bigger the poops.

Second, How often do cute chicks come up and pet your Pit bull.

My Weenie-Dog is a real chick magnet!

I agree but think it should apply to ALL dogs not just certain breeds.
I know several pitbull owners. All but one set of dogs I have no reservations about. And that set is owned by an Ahole to begine with. but he at least knows his animals and keeps them well contained at all times.

On the other hand I have been bitten by several german shepards (they seem to have a taste for me)
And when I was a kid had my dog attacked by a Boxer that tore her shoulder up pretty good.
now my dog was a beagle. Beagles are not exactly known for being ferocious but yet this same beagle tried to attack the mailman.

Ultimately it is the owners responcability to maintain control over their animals reguardless of species or breed.

On the other hand. I also feel that if you enter my property illegally and without notifying me first and my daughters duck attacks you.
Your on your own.

well... I believe that while I don't want to get bit by a 2 pound dog...  I feel that they are much less of a potential danger than a pit.
