Everyone knows that pitbull dogs were bred to be mean and vicious as other dogs were bred for other things: lap dogs, hunting dogs, sheep dogs, etc.

Pitbull owners admit they are vicious by saying if brought up right they can be trained otherwise.

Now let’s change things. What would pitbull dog lovers clamor for – if four young men with points on baseball bats attack a pitbull so that there were many puncture wounds and stitches needed? Then they would really howl.

I am for banning the breed, also breed mixes.
