Campaigners have welcomed the move to outlaw the breed they argue is "a clear and present threat to public health", but concerns have been raised it may not be practical and lead to other kinds of dogs being prohibited.
My neighbor has a pit mix and it snarled at me gnashing its teeth once as she walked by. I was just standing there by my car minding my own business barely even acknowledging them. I jump and yell Jesus wtf lady omg. She just made pathetic excuses, he keeps me safe, never does that, it’s fiiiiine etc. Ive told her numerous times she needs to train it at the bare minimum, preferably destroy it. I’ve observed it doing the same to other people as they walk past. I bought pepper spray and look out for them very carefully whenever I go to my car now. I bet it’s just a matter of time before someone gets mauled and I hope it’s not me. Fucking hate those things.
After watching my cop neighbor try to drive a dog away with pepper spray, it’s not going to help much. Even direct hits to the eyes didn’t seem to affect the dog much.
Oof, noted, thanks. I figured it’s a decent last resort but I guess not. Vigilance and avoidance are the best bet as usual. I’m not quite ready to buy a handgun over this.
When a pit latches on, the only thing you can do is choke it out. Strangle it until it sleeps. Nothing else will make it let go. It doesn’t feel pain, doesn’t notice knife stabs or bat beatings or anything at all. Just hope it has a collar you can pull with all your might.
Maybe I’ll buy that handgun after all. Really pisses me off that I’m forced to consider this option because people are too stupid and stubborn to realize they themselves owned walking untrained lethal weapons.
You are not completely wrong, but you are wrong enough to be voted down.
It’s the owners’ fault for not accepting that they have an extremely dangerous animal on a leash and that they haven’t done the minimum necessary to control it. They make excuses until shit happens and that shit could happen to them and their own family as easily as it could happen to a stranger.
On top of that, these breeds are far more dangerous than others. Even if another breed bites as often or more, the damage they do is less. This breed will bite and not let go, they ignore pain completely, their jaws make large wounds and with their muscular necks they can rip out large chunks of flesh. I do not care if Sausage Dogs bite more often and are rarely well trained, they do not manage to kill anyone, except an old lady who stumbles over the leash and breaks her neck.
Even the best-trained American XL bully dog is a weapon that can shoot itself, and once it starts it is unstoppable except by a bullet or being choked into unconsciousness. The breed was bred for this, it is in them like a sausage dog was bred to hunt alone under ground and chase a badger defending its home. They are tough as hell and bite attacks are common, usually ending in a small scar on someone’s lip or a torn trouser. If you keep your finger, your eye, your face or your life with an American XL bully dog you got lucky.
Insulting people who take their time to explain why people downvote you doesn’t make you any different than the worst of Reddit. Also you seem to not have an argument against what I wrote so that’s settled then. Have a nice day!
I agree, we should blame the parents. they should have raised their kids better, and in the case of the mentally unwell helped them get the necessary treatments.

sorry you experienced that, it’s a poor owner, not a bad breed. we have a staffy mix that’s an adorable mutt, great dog.
Bullshit. You think shitbulls got their reputation from thin air? Shit dogs for shit owners.
well with that airtight argument you’ll go far! you should work for the GOP with these kind of ideas, they’ll fit right into that shit show
Hey look, someone with a shitty troll username making shitty troll comments.
Not at all a troll username - it is a new account, but I don’t like making up usernames so I just keyboard mash. I stand by everything I say though.
Edit. I looked through your comment history. Bit hypocritical to accuse others of trolling with comments like that.
Copy pasted comments that are totally in good faith:
I just think we should be consistant. If we’re using statistics to cull creatures, racists are going to have a field day.
Did you just insinuate black people commit more crime?
Comparing other races to dogs is pretty fucked up to start with.
Why not defend your argument instead of attacking another person? It might be more effective and useful, you know unlike your vicious pitbull
Aren’t like 70% of fatal dog attacks from pits or pit mixes?
I think 70% of your statistics are bullshit. Citation requested.
I found this
Quick graph:
Edit: spacing.
This is exactly what they are complaining about 😛

Hahahaha troll better, loser
That is like blaming the parents of a serial killer for the murders.
