    We created all dog breeds. Violence is not something found in DNA, but keep trying that angle. You are just scared of them, and fair enough, but let’s not pretend the dogs only purpose in life is to bite people. Most dog breeds do not serve their purpose any longer and we buy them because we like them. Many dogs are violent and untrained. If pit bulls did not exist, you would ha e another breed in its place you are complaining about because people are terrible and irresponsible. Don’t blame the dog, blame the owner. My friend hates cocker spaniels because one bit her face when she was an infant and the memory has never left her. Should we ban that breed too?

      Tell me when a cocker reach this kind of mortality then I will tell you to ban them too

      Don’t create excuses. Not all dogs are the same, this dog is a murder machine and should be put down. It’s not their fault, but this doesn’t change the fact that they were bred to maximum damage

      My thoughts are just based in numbers, yours, not so much

        I am saying that if pit bulls did not exist, another breed would fill that pie chart because PEOPLE are terrible and irresponsible. Anything in the wrong hands can be a problem. It’s why most countries try to ban assault rifles from private use because they don’t solve any problems and are very dangerous in the wrong hands, but ultimately it is the hands that cause the issue, not the “thing”.

          Your are just ignoring the fact that pitbulls are just more efficient in killing than any other race. Even if they got replaced, it would result in less deaths because not a single breed compares to them in terms of killing.

          So yes, pitbulls are assault rifles, German Shepards are 38 revolvers and your friends Cocker are butter knifes. Changing one to another is safer to everyone

                No point arguing with someone unable to reason. Have fun seething in your hate!

                    I did not. I used an incident as an example that all breeds can be dangerous, you are fixated on this issue like there is only one solution. Have fun with that, I’ll oppose you all the way.
