    Watch out, the new mod might ban you for calling them that. You need to provide facts about them killing more than other breeds.

      You broke rule 7 multiple times. The rules are clear. See you in 30 days.

      The statistics are technically correct, it’s not all pit bulls, but pit bulls often show up in statistics due to various human factors and breed misreporting.

      They appear statistically dangerous, but individual pit-like dogs are not inherently dangerous, hence why rule 7 is important.

          No, I’m dead serious about rule 7.

          We follow the ASPCA’s stance on the issue.

          Breed discrimination is prohibited, and a ban will ensue following multiple rule violations.

      German shepherds had the same metrics during the war.

          It’s a throwaway comment to highlight the fact that dogs will do what they’re trained to do. It’s not a breed problem. It’s an owner problem.
