Campaigners have welcomed the move to outlaw the breed they argue is "a clear and present threat to public health", but concerns have been raised it may not be practical and lead to other kinds of dogs being prohibited.
No. People who spend all their time online and have never interacted with a pit bull in real life tend to overlook the fact that 999 out of 1,000 pit bulls will never attack someone, and that 999 out of every 1,000 pit bull owners aren’t lying about their dogs being good.
Thank you for providing an example of someone who completely disregards the latter!
My childhood pitbull bit me in the face and I have permanent face scarring from it. I had to get 60+ stitches to reconstruct my face.
It’s not a valid point to say “most don’t attack people” when the breed is much more likely to attack a person compared to other breeds. Then it’s made worse by the fact they’ve been bred to be extra good at attacking.
I’m sorry you were attacked by a pit bull. I’ve already acknowledged that they’re both more likely to attack people than any other breed, and more dangerous when they do. I’m just trying to balance out the undue hate for them as an entire breed. Given the comments on any post relating to the breed, one would think that every pit bull, or at least the majority of pit bulls, are violent, when that’s far from the case.

Just stop. You can’t even put a decent argument together and you aren’t helping anyone. Please, just stop.
