[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One million pit bulls are killed each year by humans and yet it is the pit bulls that are the problem?[/quote]

I learned from the turtle discussion that red eared sliders are the turtle species most commonly surrendered by owners. The turtles are irresponsibly bred and owners are not able to handle their longevity, need for space, and the labor of care. There is such a surplus of unwanted turtles that the turtle rescues are all full and even they recommend euthanasia as an option. This is not the red eared sliders’ fault, but the breed is a problem. Similarly, pit bulls are irresponsibly bred (like many other breeds), are are often too difficult to exercise, train and socialize for the average owner, so they are surrendered more than other breeds. It’s not the dog’s fault,[b] but the breed is a problem[/b]. [/quote]

Is it really?  If it is the human's fault than tell me how is it the dogs' fault?[/quote]

Yes, when there are too many of this breed in shelters getting euthanized because they are surrendered,[b] the breed is the problem.[/b] It’s a problem that people made, so we should be the ones to solve it. To put it into perspective, banning pit bulls or restricting them is not a crazy radical idea. Many countries have a ban or restrictions in place. Like at least 30-40. And the us and Canada are the only two countries that allow them to be imported. So this isn’t a bunch of nut jobs clamoring to ban pit bulls. Most countries that we travel to have already banned or restricted them. It reminds me of Americans hollering about wild eyed liberals asking for gun restrictions when most of the rest of the world has recognized that guns are a problem (again created by people).
