Just like pit bulls, the reason there are more pit bull attacks is more of them are trained to be that way. But you're too much of a fucking idiot, moron, dip shit to see that, you only have your numbers and your selective as to what numbers you use.

Quit being a moron and realize that when people are going to train a dog to be an attack dog , they are gong to pick the one that everyones afraid of, would you pick a chow to be a guard dog? No, even though they make a great guard dog.

Out of you and me, guess who mentioned stats, and who didn't?

It all started just before 2 p.m. when Animal Control Officer Tracy Bryan was dispatched to a report of a vicious dog on the 600 block on A Street.

Lt. Ed Whiting said Bryan found the large pit bull attacking a a dog being walked by its owner.

Fearing the dog was going to get loose just across the street from Parkview School with children about to be let out, one of the officers shot and killed the dog, Whiting said.

You forgot the important part about these fun, kind, gentle and peace loving animals who are great with children:

It was the third time law enforcement officers have shot and killed pit bulls in the area in recent weeks.

In June, a Kern County Sheriff's deputy shot and killed a pit bull that attacked him and last week another deputy shot and killed a pit bull that had a family trapped in a car in Derby Acres, then turned on the deputy.

Earlier in the day off-duty Taft Police officer Veronica Sandoval shot and killed a pit bull in the yard of her Bakersfield home.

no, by the others was meant that pit bull owners know that the pit bull can be trained to do anything, they are an awesome breed. Those that train them for guard dogs, know they are worth more because of the stigma placed on them. While they have half the bite power of a Rottweiler. That stigma, though false, makes them better for the job. The pit bull in my house would just bark at you.

Yes, especially when we're talking about made up breeds.

Pittbulls and Bull Mastiffs are very different dogs.

WarChild · 08-28-2011, 02:21 PM

So now that we've had all "facts" as indivuals see it based on their very own and quite limited experience with dogs, what do the experts have to say about it?

Quote:

Breed Specific Legistlation Does Not Work

While supporters of BSL argue that the only way to be safe from dog bites is to eradicate “dangerous breeds” from the community, there is little evidence that supports BSL as an effective means of reducing dog bites and dog attacks. On the contrary, studies have shown that it is not the breeds themselves that are dangerous, but unfavorable situations that are creating dangerous dogs. Often, the very research that some cite as “support” for BSL actually argues for alternative, more effective means.

http://www.americanhumane.org/animal...gislation.html

Now I know that the GFY cowboys always know better than the professionals so it's hard to take the American Humane Society at their word.

Of further note, all of the national dog clubs and even the American Veterinary Medical Association have position statements denouncing the need or wisdom of such knee-jerk breed specific laws.

You will be hard pressed to find ANY Veterinarian anywhere that supports breed ban legistlation. I mean what could they possibly know about dogs? The average Vet probably doesn't see as many dogs in their career, treat as many dog bites or have any more education on the subject in general than your average GFY poster, right?

So on one side you have the knee jerk reactionaries and on the other side you have pretty much ALL of Veterinary science, the Humane Society and 100% of national dog clubs. I wonder which side is more credible?

i will go with what the canadian courts tend to think.

Ms. Cochrane and the Attorney General of Ontario appealed different aspects of the decision to the Court of Appeal for Ontario.[26] In Cochrane v. Ontario (2008 ONCA 718), the Court of Appeal reversed the lower court's ruling:
It agreed with the lower court judge in finding that the “overbreadth” claim failed because the legislature had acted on a “reasonable apprehension of harm.”
It disagreed that the definition of pit bull in the Act was insufficiently precise and restored the original wording of "pit bull terrier" on the basis that, when read in the context of “a more comprehensive definition,” the phrasing “a pit bull terrier” was sufficiently precise.
It reversed the trial court and found that the government's ability to introduce a veterinarian's certificate certifying a dog was a pit bull would constitute proof only if the defendant failed to answer the claim: it was therefore a tactical burden, rather an evidentiary burden.[27]
On June 11, 2009 the Supreme Court of Canada declined to hear further appeal of the case, thereby upholding the Ontario ban on pit bulls.[26

even the US marines - god bless the troops - are wise enough to ban them as well.

the Marine Corps[2] has banned "large dog breeds with a predisposition toward aggressive or dangerous behavior,"[2] including pit bull-type dogs (among other breeds) in on-base housing and privatized housing, as have a number of United States Army,[1] U.S. Air Force and Navy installations.

Oh right I see courts are the experts in animals not the people that spend their entire careers working with and caring for. That clearly makes more sense and you're winning me over now.

According to Colorado?s state laws, no municipality may enact a law that is restrictive based on breed alone.

cently 4 BSLs were stopped due to public outcry or cost ineffectiveness in Colorado, Massachusetts and Oklahoma. However, California has recently repealed a ban on BSLs, allowing cities to adopt ordinances banning or restricting certain breeds.

It appears there's some confusion amongst law makers and they don't even all agree on your point. Probably just best to go with the people that interact with animals on a full time basis. Errr wait, that isn't you is it?

WarChild · 08-28-2011, 02:40 PM

Personally I don't care to argue about it because it doesn't really matter to me. I don't have pittbulls. I do have one 10 year old Rottweiler left, who is currently waiting for my mom's yellow lab to drop the bone he stole from him so he can have it back (instead of just savaging him and taking it) in the backyard. Yes Rottweilers tend to make the same breed ban lists and it's a shame.

Ultimately BSL doesn't work, period.

All the professionals are wrong, only judges (and only the ones that agree with you) are right. Some lawmakers (again the ones that you agree with and by far the minority) are also right. All Veterninarians are just emotional people that can't think straight.

Anyway I've done what I intented to do and pointed out the opinions of the vast majority of medical professionals.

I quite literally don't have a dog in this fight as I don't want a pitbull because the breed doesn't appeal to me. You guys can go ahead and argue until the end of time on the matter.

You clearly put your trust in the wrong place then. Doesn't being so stupid hurt? What I love is that reading your posts only reinforces the fact that my dog (pit bull) is smarter than you are

take the blinders off buddy, it seems that everyone that doesn't share your opinion is biased or wrong.

Here are a few facts about the breed from the United Kennel Club website
http://www.ukcdogs.com/WebSite.nsf/B...dNovember12008
APBTs make excellent family companions and have always been noted for their love of children. The APBT is not the best choice for a guard dog since they are extremely friendly, even with strangers. Aggressive behavior toward humans is uncharacteristic of the breed and highly undesirable.

is the UKC biased in some way as well?

WarChild · 08-29-2011, 08:43 AM

While I am whole heartidly against breed ban legislation, I am completely for owner responsibility.

If your large dog gets out of your control and hurts or worse kills a person (child OR adult) you SHOULD absolutely be liable for any damage they do. I'm good with criminal charges too. We should be held responsible for what our animals do.

I've had Rottweilers for the better part of 10 years now. I'm down to just the one and he's easily the most gentle dog I've ever had. Would I leave him outside alone though? Absolutely not. Would I leave him alone with a child? Never! Why? Because he's a dog. He has never been aggressive to anything in his whole life but that doesn't change the fact that *IF* something happened he could do a whole lot of damage.

Your loaded gun might not ever go off by accident, but if it does, the potential for damage is pretty big. Same holds true for any type of powerful animal.

Punish the people not the breed and you'll put an end to these kinds of problems a whole lot faster.

CDSmith · 08-29-2011, 08:55 AM

Sigh.

10 pages of the usual (pit)bull shit. Whatever. The fact is yes, there are good responsible owners and there are also a lot of dipshits who shouldn't have a dog period much less a pitbull.

The other fact is that the bad owners are going to ruin it for the good owners. Seems more and more provinces and states and even a few countries out there are talking lately about possibly banning the breed. And quite frankly if they bring that kind of law into my province I really can't say I would disagree with it, at least not enough to fight it. Because the last fact is that people in general are sick to death of hearing on the news or reading in the paper about yet another pitbull attack, yet another kid maimed or killed, etc.

And for every pic or vid of a nice tame friendly pitbull there is no doubt quite a few floating around out there of vicious ones in action that could be posted as well. (did I just give this thread legs to go 20 pages?)

Argue the why's or where's or anything else you want, but the simple fact is that like most other fun or enjoyable things in life, it is the idiots who are going to ruin it for the rest of you. I almost said "us" instead of "you" there, but although I've been a dog owner for much of my life I've never owned a pitbull. It's never been a breed that particularly appealed to me, but that's not to say they can't be good trainable loveable pets. They can.

Maybe they're a breed that prospective owners should need to earn some sort of dog training credentials before being allowed to get one? Just a thought, it would certainly weed out most of the lowlifes out there who seem to gravitate towards owning a pitbull. And it would negate the need for an all-out ban on the entire breed.

porno jew · 08-29-2011, 10:24 AM

you would assume other breeds have bad owners as well and as such those breeds should be attacking people as well. but they don't at the same levels. why is that? there is just something genetically defective about the breed and as such to dangerous and unstable to be around human society despite the capabilities of the owners and training.

odd that stigma thing......

Sure, right, they were killed by a dog they used for guard duty tied up with a chain.
I would expect you to be the first to realize the fault in that reporting

Most dog attacks are off site according to all the stats, which means bad ownership to me, not bad breed. I've never owned a small breed dog and have always made sure my dogs didn't roam the streets.

It nearly always seems to be family that is eaten by any dog.

odd then that only one of the children killed by pitbulls were out in the street when it happened.

I'm sure those days old kids were up to no good out in the street when they were killed.

I'll bet their parents were busy telling everyone how good their god was with kids as they were driving the baby home from the hospital.
wonder if they're posting pics of The Little Rascals now.

right, and it always seems to be the pitbull that accounts for at least 50% of dog related killings.

I don't have pittbulls. I do have one 10 year old Rottweiler left, who is currently waiting for my mom's yellow lab to drop the bone he stole from him so he can have it back (instead of just savaging him and taking it) in the backyard. Yes Rottweilers tend to make the same breed ban lists and it's a shame. Ultimately BSL doesn't work, period. __________________ .

I quite literally don't have a dog in this fight as I don't want a pitbull because the breed doesn't appeal to me. You guys can go ahead and argue until the end of time on the matter. __________________ .

Ms. Cochrane and the Attorney General of Ontario appealed different aspects of the decision to the Court of Appeal for Ontario.[26] In Cochrane v. Ontario (2008 ONCA 718), the Court of Appeal reversed the lower court's ruling: It agreed with the lower court judge in finding that the “overbreadth” claim failed because the legislature had acted on a “reasonable apprehension of harm.” It disagreed that the definition of pit bull in the Act was insufficiently precise and restored the original wording of "pit bull terrier" on the basis that, when read in the context of “a more comprehensive definition,” the phrasing “a pit bull terrier” was sufficiently precise. It reversed the trial court and found that the government's ability to introduce a veterinarian's certificate certifying a dog was a pit bull would constitute proof only if the defendant failed to answer the claim: it was therefore a tactical burden, rather an evidentiary burden.[27] On June 11, 2009 the Supreme Court of Canada declined to hear further appeal of the case, thereby upholding the Ontario ban on pit bulls.[26 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breed-s...gal_Challenges

Industry Role: Join Date: Jan 2003 Location: Bermuda Posts: 17,263	While I am whole heartidly against breed ban legislation, I am completely for owner responsibility. If your large dog gets out of your control and hurts or worse kills a person (child OR adult) you SHOULD absolutely be liable for any damage they do. I'm good with criminal charges too. We should be held responsible for what our animals do. I've had Rottweilers for the better part of 10 years now. I'm down to just the one and he's easily the most gentle dog I've ever had. Would I leave him outside alone though? Absolutely not. Would I leave him alone with a child? Never! Why? Because he's a dog. He has never been aggressive to anything in his whole life but that doesn't change the fact that IF something happened he could do a whole lot of damage. Your loaded gun might not ever go off by accident, but if it does, the potential for damage is pretty big. Same holds true for any type of powerful animal. Punish the people not the breed and you'll put an end to these kinds of problems a whole lot faster. __________________ . Last edited by WarChild; 08-29-2011 at 08:45 AM..

Oh... okay, I'm in Winnipeg, Canada. Oops. :) Posts: 51,460	Sigh. 10 pages of the usual (pit)bull shit. Whatever. The fact is yes, there are good responsible owners and there are also a lot of dipshits who shouldn't have a dog period much less a pitbull. The other fact is that the bad owners are going to ruin it for the good owners. Seems more and more provinces and states and even a few countries out there are talking lately about possibly banning the breed. And quite frankly if they bring that kind of law into my province I really can't say I would disagree with it, at least not enough to fight it. Because the last fact is that people in general are sick to death of hearing on the news or reading in the paper about yet another pitbull attack, yet another kid maimed or killed, etc. And for every pic or vid of a nice tame friendly pitbull there is no doubt quite a few floating around out there of vicious ones in action that could be posted as well. (did I just give this thread legs to go 20 pages?) Argue the why's or where's or anything else you want, but the simple fact is that like most other fun or enjoyable things in life, it is the idiots who are going to ruin it for the rest of you. I almost said "us" instead of "you" there, but although I've been a dog owner for much of my life I've never owned a pitbull. It's never been a breed that particularly appealed to me, but that's not to say they can't be good trainable loveable pets. They can. Maybe they're a breed that prospective owners should need to earn some sort of dog training credentials before being allowed to get one? Just a thought, it would certainly weed out most of the lowlifes out there who seem to gravitate towards owning a pitbull. And it would negate the need for an all-out ban on the entire breed. __________________ *Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!* ALWAYS THE HIGHEST PAYOUTS: Big Bux/ImLive SIGNUP ON NOW!!!
