They were also glorified in movies and tv's the way you see done on tv with pits now. I am not even talking about news stories. I am talking that 9 times out of 10 if you watch a movie where their are drug dealers with dogs around they were rotties and now when you see it they are pit bulls.
We used to live with the occupation that Dobermwns were the badass dog breed when I was a teen. Judging by your avatar. I guess I'm in your age(mid 20s).

Everything goes in circles of course, just look at fashion. Or the mobile phone, as an improved device. Smaller thinner, more functions, and cleaner design?

But considered ...and what are, are two very different things.

The same goes for dogs, we learn new things and see new things. And we want to improve them in some way, or create new tools and better tools. More powerful tools and more badass tools.

Then we get rid of things, and make new discoverys, get new fresh views and so on.

We make life easier, safer, etc

The fact that I thought Dobermen was the most badass dog only mean that
I just like you didn't have much knowledge around Pittbulls.

They have been the most badass dog since the 18th century. Even before I were born(doh!)

But I know what you are getting at, and indeed they are seen more in
movies now days. But that arent don't judgmental right for the horryfying images we have seen in this thread.

And by evidence the damage on list after list you don't have to try to convince yourself otherwise. Crackdealers+pitbulls+movies.
