It's time we ban pitbulls
Enough is enough. These dogs are way too strong & unpredictable. Plus, they are normally owned by the wrong people. Deadly combo right there.
This latest pitbull attack is absolutely heartbreaking. A 14-month-old Wisconsin boy has died after a brutal attack by a pair of pit bulls, authorities said on Thursday. Police received a call from Susan Iwicki, 30, on Wednesday saying that she and the young boy were being attacked by the dogs, according to local NBC affiliate WMTV. Iwicki told police that she and the boy had each sustained injuries. The boy died of his injuries at a Milwaukee area hospital later on Wednesday, the Walworth County sheriff’s office said, according to The Associated Press. The boy had the “biggest eyes, great smile,” family friend Valerie Brylow told local affiliate WTMJ. “He was a great little boy.” “He is adorable, absolutely adorable,” Nicole Jennison, another family friend told the station. The boy’s name has not been released, and an investigation continues. Both of the pit bulls were removed from the property and euthanized on Wednesday, WMTV reported. The fatal dog attack was the first in Wisconsin in a decade, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013...lling-him?lite |

Fair warning to all pitbull owners and lovers, if your pitbull were to attack me or attack my dog. You better hope it kills me because I am going to ****ing shoot you and your ****ing dog and probably not in that order. My dog means the world to me. He's family. You are your dog are not. So piss off. Toodles, |

Then you should never allow them to ride in a car, or go outside, or play football, because they "could" get hurt doing all these things as well. But, like you said, it's better to err on the side of caution. FTR, I am not advocating you go to the slums and find some pits to play with, but your argument is silly.

Works for me. I'd suggest putting the owners in a cage with some hyper-aggressive pits and see if their opinion changes.

Are pit bulls popular with Latinos or something?

Wow. 12 fatal attacks so far in 2013, and pitbulls/mixes were responsible for 11 of them?
That's nuts.

Multiple studies, in different countries, have shown that:
Breed specific legislation doesn't work Bite incidents remain basically the same before and after breed bannings In the U.K., dog bite incidents leading to hospitalization have actually increased significantly since the passage of the dangerous dog act in 1991 The U.S. reports which inflame the public tend about pit bull attacks to use badly flawed methodologies. |
