What a load of bs
Brehs in here keep giving human characteristics and behaviors to dogs,
Dogs don't have 'episodes'
Dogs aren't 'wild'
A golden retriever can be just as aggressive as a pitbull. Sure, it won't be as fierce or dangerous, but it all comes down to how they're trained, socialized and their environment

Can't Change My Damn Avi :beli:
I'm not even about to read this thread, not the way this place is full of sheltered, spoon-fed by media, know nothing ass twerp-dweebs..
I can only imagine all of the misinformation and hyper-emotional sentiments towards pit-bulls being spewed page after page.
"but but but they're inherently evil nobody should have one"
Be a militant clown nikka who constantly whines over bytches, while mentioning others making hyper-emotional sentiments!

The 3 Most Aggressive Dog Breeds May Surprise You
The least aggressive breeds included Basset Hounds, Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Siberian Huskies, and Greyhounds. Pit Bulls and Rottweilers scored about average to below average in the study."
A Dose of Reality
1.) Since 1992, the breed most involved in fatal attacks has been the
Rottweiler, not the pit bull.
2.) Although there are no accurate or even near accurate census records
for dogs in the U.S., in some populations pit bulls are estimated to
comprise some 30-40% of the dog population, making it a very popular
breed. Considering that there were an estimated 53,000,000 dogs in the
U.S., and assuming that pit bulls make up 10% of that population, there
would be approximately 5.3 million pit bulls in our society. In 2000, 13 pit
bulls were involved in 8 fatal attacks. That is roughly ONE dog out of
204,000 - or .000385 percent of the pit bull population.
3.) Over the 37-year period from 1965-2001, pit bulls have been blamed
for an average of 2.48 human fatalities per year.
4.) About 40 people (children) per year die by drowning in 5-gallon water
pails. A person, during their lifetime, is 16 times more likely to drown in a
5-gallon water pail than to be killed by a pit bull.
5.) Approximately 50 children in the US are killed every year by their cribs
- 25 times the number of children and adults killed by pit bulls.
6.) Approximately 150 people are killed every year by falling coconuts.
Therefore, you are more than 60 TIMES MORE LIKELY to be killed by a
PALM TREE than a pit bull.
7.) Each year, 350 people drown in their bathtubs. You are 151 times
more likely to be killed by your bathtub than you are by a pit bull.
8.) It is estimated that about 500 deaths per year are caused by aspirin.
You are more than 200 times more likely to die from taking aspirin than
from a pit bull attack.
9.) Every year, more than 2,000 children in the U.S. are killed by their
parents or guardians either through abuse or neglect. A child is more
than 800 times more likely to be killed by their adult caretaker than by a
pit bull.
10.) It is estimated that 5,000,000 dogs per year are killed in shelters.
Therefore - it is at least a HALF MILLION TIMES MORE LIKELY that a pit
bull will be killed by a HUMAN than the other way around.
11.) For every pit bull who kills, there are hundreds of thousands that
DON'T.

In the year 2000, pit bulls were involved in 8 fatalities.
From the National Safety Council: Numbers of Deaths Due to Injury,
United States in 2000:
book “Fatal Dog Attacks” by Karen Delise.
Additional statistics from both the CDC and the National Safety Council.
The percentage of overall pit bull populations in shelters was drawn from
various shelter/rescue statistical data.
One note on pit bull population estimates that are floating around out
there – I believe the pit bull population numbers are grossly
underestimated by AKC-leaning “experts” (Alan Beck comes to mind, for
one). At the time I wrote that piece, I did some searching on Petfinder for
all the pit bull “varieties” (APBT, AmStaff, Staffordshire whatevers, bull
terriers) and I’m darned if I can remember the results, but it was
something quite stunning – especially considering that many shelters
won’t even place them up for adoption. In my opinion, that’s a much more
accurate way of estimating the pit bull population than figuring the
percentage of AKC registered AmStaffs as compared to all AKC
registrations, which is how I know Alan Beck does his figuring, as well as
some other. There is a large population of urban dogs which remain
invisible to the middle- and upper-class fanciers, and this is where I
believe the larger segment of the pit bull population remains.

Now you back peddling. And moving goal posts. I simply ask you to sure up the stats you were spitting then you got defensive.When I posted the data, it wasn't my goal to show pit bulls proclivity for causing harm, I just presented the information because I thought it was interesting.
Due to your lack of mental deficiencies, what you failed to grasp is that there was never a "argument" for or against pit bulls being presented in the first place.
What was the theme of the op? Nvm You win breh.

The way I feel about some posts in the thread
yeah thank god for the Irish for introducing them to the States. Im a cat and reptile person don't care for dogs and prefer huskeys and hunting dogs(like akitas but that tibetan mastiff posted earlier is hot; i like asian and african dogs like cape hunting) but that colby was one of the best dogs I encountered and mad loyal. My housemate got into an accident and unfortunately the dog suffered trauma and wouldn't eat, drink and was depressed. Pits get a bad rap because of shyt owners.
So now animals are animals and should be treated as such
but in the "if being gay was natural then why are people ashamed" thread you were comparing humans to animals saying because animals can be gay then its natural for humans to be gay which one is it
seems like you just typing whatever you can to justify for your demonic acts behind closed doors

Seems like you was defending those "interesting facts" pretty hard on this post.

lol....most people including children aren't 'the alpha'
If subtle body language cues causes dogs of a certain breed to attack visciously IDK how mfs act like it's the humans fault and not the dog's.
This has to be one of the most cherrypicked bs studies I've ever laid eyes on
I'd fukk a dog up
