[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]but it would show that such a dog would cause much greater damage in the event it had such a bad owner.  so why take the chance?  just eliminate the breed.  i don't understand the opposition.  there is no downside.

you dont NEED to have this kind of dog.  just choose a greyhound or a lab or whatever.[/quote]

There is no downside. I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you did not read this (instead of assuming you read it and chose to ignore it):

[i]"Tests that have been done comparing the bite pressure of several
breeds showed pressure PSI (per square inch) to be considerably lower
than some wild estimates that have been made. [b]Testing has shown that
the domestic dog averages about 320 lbs of pressure per square inch.[/b]
Recently Dr. Brady Barr of National Geographic conducted a comparative
test between a Pit Bull, a Rottweiler, and a German Shepherd. The Pit
Bull had the LOWEST PSI OF THE THREE.

[b]The highest pressure recorded from the Pit Bull was 235 lbs PSI. [/b]The
highest from the GSD was 238, and the highest from the Rott was 328.
Dr. Barr states that as far as he knows, the PSI tested in the Rott is the
highest on record for any domestic canine."[/i]

So, based on a test conducted by National Geographic, [b]pit bulls actually have a lower PSI than the average domestic dog.[/b]

Do you now suggest we kill all dogs that have a PSI equal to or greater than a pit bull?? Because that means you would be killing off about half of the dog population.

Also, suggesting you kill off any breed is terribly insensitive. You do realize you are talking about killing beloved, adored pets. Pets who are considered family members and dogs who serve as service dogs to disabled people and search and rescue teams ( learn more about a world famous pit bull search and rescue team, if you care to educate yourself - http://www.forpitssake.org). So, if you really think there is no downside, you obviously don't care about people and the devastating losses they would experience having their beloved pits executed. The world sure would be a better place if people who lacked empathy were eliminated. Don't know if I see a downside to that. Though, I hold on to a thread of hope that even the most anti-pit "kill them all!" person will finally [b]actually meet one[/b] and their minds will be changed.
