I think it's a double-edged sword whether to show or not show snippets of actual dog fights.

Personally, I don't need to see them to know how horrible this is of an industry. But for many other impressionable young minds who could be lured into the world of Pitbull breeding...I think you need to in order to share the truth about where their future litters could end up.

Unfortunately, a very high number eventually end up in ALL of our local animal shelters where they are routinely PTS along with another breed, the Chihuahua.

I for one am tired of seeing poor innocent animals face this future plus, my tax dollars going to the end result, all brought about by irresponsible breeders (byb, etc) of Pitbulls (as well as many others) and want to see laws come into being that limit who can & can not breed...period!
