I think those that are raised right can seem to be fine most of the time. But I also think that there is an innate viciousness that can come out when least expected. These dogs were bred for that viciousness and it is in their makeup. Just today on CNN I saw a 5 year old girl -- beautiful child -- was killed -- mauled by her uncle's pit bull. It may be unpopular to say it but I applaud each country, state, and municipality that has outlawed the pit bulls. They were a horrible human errors in breeding and they all need to be neutered or spayed -- putting an end to the cruelty that was started by man. I know I will hear that the casualties are human fault -- and I agree. But people cannot be trusted to always keep these animals away from children and small animals. If they are to continue, they should have the same restrictions as other wild, dangerous beasts. People are not allowed to keep a lion or a tiger in a residential area, and I think the same would apply. JMO. |
