All pit bulls to be considered dangerous under court ruling

You would consider Vicks a responsible dog owner?

What is with low life idiots and pit bulls, they go hand in hand.

LOL denotes sarcasm, FYI.

"There is something deeply all-American about owning a dog. It seems to reflect our love of family, how we cherish the homeland and the spirit of patriotism that burns in all of us. Not the pit bull! These dogs are like felines in the way they creep and sneer. They’re always nervous and will snap at you if you try to scratch one’s head on the sidewalk. Their fearsomeness makes you approach them gingerly. Watch out! They’ll stare you down with those evil, red eyes if you make any sudden movements. They love to stand on top of picnic tables to survey the landscape like dictators. All of these are minor issues when you consider the odd racial component to the pit bull mentality. Trained as attack dogs, they are coveted by inner city ethnic youths. It’s a gangster hip hop status symbol to own such a creature. They are taught to hate “whitey” because of the innate socio-economic successes that many of us attain. These black and Chicano youngsters see the pit bull as their way of marking their territory, of claiming the “ghetto” as a non-white space. It is the very essence of reverse racism and the consequences can be tragic."

Pitbull attacks are not anymore common then attacks from other dog breeds. It just seems like it because there are about 70 breeds and mixes that are all lumped together as Pit-bulls. The other problem with dogs like Pit-bulls and Rottweiler are that when they attack they are far more likely to maim or kill then many other breeds, so those attacks are more often reported.
P.S. pit bull attacks are about 3 out of 1000, so it's hardly at the level you are claiming.

II don't care what breed a pit bull is mixed up in, it will eventually attack. Sure, statistically someone is more likely to be bitten by a black lab but that's because there are so many more labs out there. Also, you are correct, an attack by a pit bull is much more likely to do serious harm than other breeds.

Is your p.s. 3 out of 1,000 pit bulls or just any breed? I used some exaggeration to make my point, but the point remains, pit bulls cannot be trusted. You never know when they might snap, and they do snap. Everyone thinks their pit bull is not a problem, until it is a problem.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that many Pitbulls are bred to fight. I think to some extent it is embedded in them. Sad for the dogs.

I heard she made book for Michael.

<quoted text>You must be one of the low life pit bull owners. Either a stupid darkie or Jerry Springer white trash.

CRASS, though I'm accustomed to your style of commentary, this here statement could take the prize for absurd stereotyping. I worked in a veterinary clinic for a time, and it wasn't the bully breeds that made us most nervous. A much more accurate assessment of a dog's potential for violence is had by watching the owner's interaction with his/her animal. The worst bite I ever received from a dog was at the business end of a Yorkie, a non-socialized, spoiled little animal that hadn't the benefit of a consistently committed owner. When the sweet pit/mix clinic resident was struck by a car shortly after adoption, a lot of people mourned the loss of a sweet and predictable animal.

Instead, she said, the ruling will lead to discrimination against pit bull owners and will discourage landlords from renting to all kinds of dog owners across the state because dog breeds are often misidentified.
"You can't identify breed based on appearance," she said.
Only lowlifes, losers and scumballs own pit bulls.

Just more racism by the leftists.

Poor Pete in the Little Rascals was a pit bull. They should have used a poodle.

"Some people have them because they're scared, other people as a status symbol," said Annie Piper, an animal control officer who covers north Minneapolis. "You see people doing their strut down the street in the parade of pit bulls --'Look at me, we have tough dogs so we're tough guys.'" http://www.startribune.com/local/minneapolis/... Pit bulls are dangerous animals generally owned by the scum of society. I'm sure most gangbangers and white trash would own lions and hyenas if they could manage it. A Yorkie might bite but it is not going to kill another dog or a person.

If it's not a pit bull they (the scum of society) will own a Rottweiler or Akita. I used to Hang with some of "the scum of society" and these are the critters they like for pets.

Pit Bull dogs and homosexuality are both a danger to society. At least I can shoot the dogs.

There is a big difference in size and temperament between the American Staffodshire Terrier (pit bull) and a Bull Terrier (The Little Rascals Pete the Pup, Target's Bullseye, Budweiser's Spuds MacKenzie, and Black Sheep Squadron's Meatball).
