    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.
