It is clear to anyone looking objectively at all the data that we have a serious pit bull problem. It's a public safety issue, and it's a humane issue, as pit bulls are causing injuries and deaths to both humans and animals in amounts drastically out of proportion to their numbers. When we say "out of proportion", what sort of proportion are we talking about? We're talking about a type of dog that constitutes a very small minority of the overall dog population but causes more death and mayhem than all other types of dogs combined.
"321 humans have been killed or disfigured by dogs during calendar year 2013; 316 of those 321 fatal or disfiguring attacks were by pit bulls" (and the human casualties are just a drop in the bucket compared to the number of innocent family pets being killed by pit bulls)
The quote above comes from an article over at the SRUV blog which takes a look at the positive pit bull propaganda coming out the LA times in the wake of numerous horrific attacks; Please feel free to read more at the URL below:

ReplyDeletepit proponents think we should ignore these casualties as being insignificant . that speaks for itself, methinks.
ReplyDeletehundreds of people injured or killed , thousands of innocent pets made to suffer painfull horrific injuries and lingering deaths and pit defenders dont seem to give a rats ass.
if hating these people and their dogs is ignorant then im one ignorant hater.
Some people were kidnaped by aliens, some were victims of satanistic rituals, others were abused by parents and those were attacked by pitbull. Skeptics call it false memories.

DeleteSOME "PEOPLE" have twisted, deviant relationships with their pit bulls, and fight them, others are breeding them in droves because MONEY means more to them than their children, much less, anyone else's. Some "rescue and re-home THE SAME DOGS, OVER AND OVER!- sneaking them across state lines, and hiding prior attacks. They pick them up from the shelter and pay nothing, and then charge somebody else hundreds of dollars. We are not stupid. We see. We note. The party is over!

ReplyDeleteInteresting idea but I'm afraid it strains credulity. There's nothing imaginary about pit bulls, nor about the injuries they inflict every day. I'd encourage you to come out from under the rock, take off the tin foil hat and learn to use google search, and google news alerts.
Google Walk for Victims of Pitbulls and other Dangerous Dogs, an event coming to Houston Texas to support and prevent attacks by pitbulls and other dangerous dogs.. All of those people are delusional huh? The scars on the kids faces, the parents with kids that are buried and gone forever because of pitbulls must be imagining it huh? Sometimes psychopathic selfish people make ridiculous claims and excuses to discount the horrors of the growing public health emergency that is being ignored. Some of us like to stay in reality and believe that all victims of violence, including those attacked by pitbulls need support. Oh by the way, another man was killed by his neighbor's loose pitbulls in Katy, Tx yesterday and the day before that a Florida man received a Manslaughter charge for the death caused by his sweet pitbulls.. I guess some people choose stay in la la land and deny reality.. until they end up behind bars..
ReplyDeletePolar Bear, you are kidding aren't you? False memories do not generate reports written by police who were witness to the attack. False memories do not generate hospital bills, or life flight transport, or physical scars and/or amputation. What do you say to the parents of children mauled to death by pit bulls? Do you think that the children never existed?
