guns don't have brains and are under the control of a human. Pits often have a brain malfunctioning brain from generations of breeding and too often are not controlled by a human also with a malfunctioning brain.

reductio ad absurdum

You don't want your freedoms infringed? Don't infringe on others.
Don't want a pit bull, don't get one.
One trespasses on your property, kill it.
Hold owners accountable, a lot of people won't own them.
Let the market rule.
Pretty simple

Where's the limber for that thing?

It's a scientifically proven fact that selective breeding has a measurable effect on the disposition and preferences of animals. Pit lovers too often deny that fact. Some strains of hounds prefer foxes while others of the same breed were more interested in bear or cats or even deer (years ago). Pointers and setters have a thing about upland birds. Pits were bred to lick trespassers to death and at the same time to "look" mean and scare them away. (well, according to a real pit expert who would get rich from writing a book on this rare, valuable, and unique quality if he had the time).

Animals also should be under the control of their owners, and those owners be held accountable if they don't have that control.

It scares me to hear gun advocates using the same arguments as anti gunners, whom we universally ridicule and hold up for contempt, for something they don't like.

Rationalize it all you want, it's still the same thought process.

That's easy to say here on the forum, not so easy for the 70 year old grandma that was innocently walking down the street with her 6 year old granddaughter to say! Dum [bleep] owning chit eaters all to often infringe on the safety of the innocent, and were arguing about rights and comparing inanimate objects (guns) to in some cases beasts that act and think seperately from the humans that own them!

Equating pits to guns is [bleep] retarded. It's an emotional response by estrogen laden fools, rather than an intellectual argument.

If the owner can't control the animal, hold the owner accountable. Just like a firearm abuser.

Dudes....I think this man has a very valid point.....

Equating an inanimate object (gun) to a pet lion or dog (uh, those are animate) reveals the true, sad mental condition of too many pit owners.

Guns ALWAYS act in concert with the bearers actions while pet lions, dogs or snakes -not so much.

IIRC, Hawk, you have previously indicated on another pit thread, how proud, superior, smug you feel going to the dog park and having all the others give way to your passage and defer to your course of travel with your pit on leash. It's the same as with the majority of killer dog owners -getting proud (hard) wherever possible.

If ya need a fightin dog, IMO, you're wantin a dick extender. Pathetic. But, your right.


I am all for rights AND responsibilities. Can ya bring small children back to life?
How about reconfiguring their mutilated faces and bodies? And memories, if they have any.


If we have to tolerate this foolishness, as a society, ownership should be established legally at transfer and then owners should face charges just as if they perpetrated the crime. Your dog kills, you fry. I mean, really. Your dog mutilates, you do 20 in the pen. No BS. No parole. None of this civil justice where ya can't get blood from a turnip stuff. I want owners to go to prison if such a dog is found roaming the neighborhood - ever - once. This cavalier approach to the lives of others is revolting, selfish and at best, delusional.

I am just as generous, in spirit, about drunks drivers. Oh, I know, they are fun guys and others should just watch out for them. They never meant to hurt anyone, just havin a little fun.

If you major Pit advocates could see what this looks like in three D and color, I would hope you would get sick and grow up. If not, you are hopeless.

Taking chances with other's lives should come at a VERY VERY HIGH premium.

This is your little Suzy or Grandma we are talkin about. Stretch your imagination.

I agree. The owner of a pit that kills a human should be put down.

I saw the JRT shaking the rat on the YouTube video. My JRT is twice the size of those and will shake and kill a feral house cat with the same vigor. Imagine a pit bull shaking an infant in that manner. That's what the gruesome attacks look like when they happen. Just as fierce and just as furious when they happen, so fast that it's over before one even attempts to stop it.

I agree fully.

However, in this country dogs are universally regarded as 'property', so the liability still rests with the owner of that property.

Me too...big time.

Good luck cutting through this level of blindness, but good effort.

And unless a "drunk" driver actually drives recklessly, they should be left alone.
