[quote=Anonymous]Idiots saying idiot things because they are idiots.

I don't own a pit and won't because of the stigma and liability associated with the breed.  But I have several friends who have them and they are great dogs. My kids play with my close friend's beautiful pit all the time.

Most "pitbull attacks" are actually attacks by other breeds mistaken as pits.  See if you can find the pitbull.

Be honest.  The vast majority of people couldn't tell a pitbull from the many, many other similar looking breeds. Sadly, the American Staffordshire (often labled as pitbull) gets the blame every time a dog even remotely appears to be a bully breed.

Pitbull is NOT a dog breed. American Pitbull Terrier or American Staffordshire Terrier are breeds. Both are recognized for their outstanding temperament.  They are considered "good-natured" and  great family pets by the AKC. Sadly, people are quick to label any mix even slightly resembling a bully breed as ",pitbull".

My German Shepherd is much more likely to bite than an American Pitbull Terrier. No one is trying to legislate GSDs.  Or Rotties.  Or any other larger breed. Look at the AKC temperament tests.
