Come on madmunny, your really not looking.
Retarded mentality? I've posted some actual incidents of dog attack, which were never reported, none of them involving pit-bulls.
Everyone has a different opinion, and i'll be stuffed if im going to compliment some f@wit as to the quality of their latest mastiff/wolfhound/pbull cross hunting dog litter.
For f#cks sake, humans have firearms, bows, why the hell is it a logical thing to have ferocious pig hunting dogs, just to bail them up and you can kill the animal with a knife??
Nothing but primitive adrenaline thrillseeking, definitely of a retarded mentality.
Indeed, your correct a lot of people may be ignorant as to the origins of the pit bull and many other breeds, but its STILL retarded.
Consider the african lion dog, specifically bred to hunt and kill lions; a recent trend was to keep these animals to keep out black theives and robbers from white estates, good idea?
Dont let them play with your kids, put it that way.
Or the attempted interbreeding of these lion dogs with actual wolves, by the SA government , to hunt and kill enemy militia.
Did it work?
No, the animals were uncontrollable and untrainable.
You must be seeing some parallels there.
Why is it that dog breeders are so loyal to their breed, and pedigree?
I suspect its more to do with a defacto racist elitism, transferred to animals, not much more than a cult of sorts.
Maybe it sounds harsh, but it reflects on human stupidity rather than any animal.
On a seperate note, while i normally like dogs, i wouldnt own one.
I once went to pat a boxer , and it plain old barfed all over my shoe.
Dogs dont have to aggressive to question why anyone owns one, as anyone who's been kept up all night by a neighorhood of yappy mutts will attest.
