If your dog attacks a person, the owner should be tried for assault with intent to murder. This from an owner of 4 rototillers, bring your dogs up right and you wont have a problem.
This is pretty up there on the full retard meter. Dogs are sentient beings. Just like humans, even good ones can snap at any point. I've seen plenty of dogs that are not prone to aggression and raised properly lose their minds and attack someone. Some warranted because the human was being a dickhead, some unwarranted. I've seen a middle aged golden attack an older women for literally no reason at a park at Mitchell College in New London, CT. I knew the dog and it never had shown any sign ever that it would do something like that. It wasn't a mauling, but it left a handful of puncture wounds on the lady's arm.
I cant wait till they apply that logic when the next kid gets run over by a truck.
Nobody needs a truck... a small compact car is enough for any "normal" person. Only the government needs trucks.
What? Everyone knows a compact car kills the same as a truck.
As for pit bulls and making them illegal in Lowell. It worked just fine for gunz didn't it?
I wonder if a 9mmP would stop a pit bull? I carry a G17.

You obviously never owned a dog that was trained right. The problem with pit bulls are some owners train them to be aggressive and it gives the breed a bad name. Same thing with the Rotties.
Your dogs are your resposibility and if you cant accept that you should not have dogs.Lol. Obviously you don't know me. Also I currently own two pits and have owned other dogs that people consider prone to aggression like Akitas and Chows.
The real question is; would the 9mm hollow points that the Pit’s parent is feeding his CCW with, stop you?
Your dogs are your resposibility and if you cant accept that you should not have dogs.
With that logic parents should be charged for every crime their kids commit. Keep up the false logic.
You cannot uniformly hold all dog owners responsible for their dog's actions. Dogs are animals and by nature act in illogical ways occasionally. No amount of training can prevent every dog from causing harm.

Talk about false logic. Dogs are animals. They are not anyone's children.
Maybe that's part of the problem, people thinking of their dogs as their children, they are not, they are animals, it is the owner's responsibility to see to it they behave correctly.
BTW I do think parents should share in the accountability of their children, at least until they are 13. At that point they really should be able to tell right from wrong.
Lol. Obviously you don't know me. Also I currently own two pits and have owned other dogs that people consider prone to aggression like Akitas and Chows.
In my opinion Pit bulls are closer to the edge than most other breeds, its in their DNA to fight and kill, that can only be suppressed with proper training, it can never be removed unless bred out over time. I also think pit bulls are the victims with thug owners, to me its a combination of the 2. Irresponsibilty coupled with pitbulls are an even worse combination that other breeds of dog. IMHO of course.
Id rather fall into a fenced in yard with 2 Shepherds than 2 pit bulls.
Not that it is any of my business, but I am just curious, why do you prefer " aggressive" dogs? Not saying you need a reason other than you want/ like them.

I have no issues with any dog breed or people owning that breed. The main reason I keep pepper spray is because I would hate to not have it available in the event of a dog attack. I would hate to have to shoot any dog. But I would, without hesitation, if absolutely necessary.
fify...american pit bull terriers came from breeding old english terriers and old english bull dogs...which side do you think they got their prey drive from?...dogs are trained to fight by humans, it's not in their DNA...i actually entered a fenced yard while i was working on a construction job to talk to residents and a pit came running around the side yard and started barking at me...i talked to him a little and he realized i wasn't a threat to him and he walked away...the residents came out and i spoke with them and he came over to greet me and was happy as ever...just like a majority of the dogs i meet

Perhaps it's a feeling of inadequacy as a man?
And it's tacticool to have a tuff dog, as to make people think you are tuff, street cred is everything living in the hood.
Shocking...the guy who owns aggressive dogs doesn't want to take responsibility if they behave in negative manner.
Ignorance is bliss.
Again, every time we say something bad about a pit bull doesnt mean ALL are bad, sure there are some that are good dogs, no doubt about it...the one you encountered was good AND great...but you took a chance and got lucky.
The fighting tendencies are bred into the dog and can only be removed by breeding it out, so its part of thr DNA, its not held in by memory, ever heard the term bloolines? Blood lines are DNA.
Not all terriers are bred to do the same work.
That's why some breeds are better and more ideal for different types of work.
For PIT BULLS, they were bread to fight till death, or until the other opponent stopped moving. That's why the death rate for pit bull attacks is higher than say a shepherd, shepherds are more likely to bite and walk away, pits are more likely to latch on and not let go until the opponent or unsuspecting child stops moving.
I really don't know how people can say that a pitbull is no different than golden retrievers, 2 completely different dogs all together.
Pit bulls and some other breeds need a strong willed and stable handler to keep the dog in check. Belgian melanois for example, aren't ideal for family situations....yes that can be great dogs, but only with owners that can handle a dog of that temperament. Some breeds just aren't good for everyone situation. Many types of breeds in the wrong hands can be more dangerous than others, this is fact. Yes all dogs can be dangerous, they have sharp teath... But it's what's driving those teeth and what's telling them to keep going or to stop.
i'm not disagreeing that there are some good and some bad...the people that assume that they are all bad is the problem...hearing about only the stories in the news about them (or dogs labeled to be one even if not known) and no other breeds is also a problem...when you own them you're always on defense...dogs may have traits that could lend better to dog fighting like american pit bull terriers with their high prey drive from being a terrier but dogs don't inherently want to fight other dogs due to their DNA...they are trained/tortured to do that...the population of pit bulls in the US is easily in the top 10 (probably top 5)...so there is a large number of them in the US and they are over bred by sh!tbags for money so at this point in a majority of them i bet bloodlines have been mixed up quite a bit at this point
