Btw, "Pit Bull" is not a breed. The term 'pit bull' refers to 3 different breeds. So, when absorbing stats about 'pit bulls', keep in mind the stats are collecting info about 3 breeds.
When we allow discrimination against one breed, the door will be open to allow it against ALL breeds - and not just for biting, but for anything a collective may want to promote. A law against a breed sets a precedence for laws against all breeds.
It is the same principle that applies to humans. And for proof, just look around the world - for current and historical proof of unwarranted/misplaced discrimination. |
This. And all the other breeds that are constantly identified as pitties or pit mixes that aren't anything of the sort. Like my late 135 lb bullmastiff, who never bit anyone. He did slobber on me a lot though.
Also, our family pet who ripped my face open as a toddler? A golden retriever!
