get it yet :)

removing all red cars because they are statistically more "dangerous" will accomplish nothing, there would just be a new color or the numbers would be spread amongst other colors


Maybe there are other factors involved , just maybe.. like maybe idiots buy red cars , speed and cause accidents, and if they dont have red cars they will go get blue cars or green cars

(fake numbers)
top 3 aggressive dogs kill 30 people a year
the 3 dogs after that kill only 10 people a year
You eliminate the top 3, and now there is only 10 deaths a year by the "new" top 3 and 30 people are now saved!

Smokey, maybe I am not understanding what you are trying to get it.. but does this help you understand why your argument just makes no fucking sense?

no your theory is flawed , all the people that had pitbulls would now have other breeds. ( forgot about that didnt ya :) )


let me explain to you like i did to franck why your stats theory makes no sense

lets say top 3 colors of cars kill 3000 people per year the 3 colors after that kill only 500 , by your math if we remove the top 3 colors of cars we will save 2500 people every year from dying..

do you really think that would happen or do you think idiots would buy another colour

Normally i consider you a smart guy but somehow in this topic you're dumb as hell.

If you take away the most agressive breeds we'll end up with way less agressive breeds and way less accidents with dogs. You car example is totally different. The cars having nothing to do with it. If you take away the top 3 of agressive drivers there would be less accidents. No matter what colour car.

Your emotions are getting in the way of clear thinking. Move away from the screen for a few mins and come back, calm down, read the thread again and try to make sense.

what is an "aggresive breed" ? do you mean the top 3 statistically aggresive ? if you remove the top 3 there will always be TOP 3 moron.

there ya have it franck, theres your answer , the accidents aren't caused by the car but the driver..
dog = car
driver=owner

if you took away the top 3 aggresive idiotic dog owners you would greatly improve the stats compared to taking away the top 3 dogs , just as in the cars example you pointed out , taking away the dogs wont decrease accidents, only taking away the driver/owner :)

Dude you have got to be fucking kidding me. So all the other breeds have the same power as a pitt? By your logic, lets say the only breed that existed was a chihuahua, now what if the only breed that existed was pitts? What scenario is going to have more death by dog? Please don't answer back with something so fucking dumb as "well yeah but now drug dealers will have packs of 300 chihuahuas to protect them"

pinupglam 04-02-2009 11:22 AM

To be quite blunt, this argument is racist. Pit Bulls are used as attack/fighting dogs not because they are naturally aggressive, but because they are probably the most trainable dog breed there is. They also look tough, so the bottom-feeder element of our society has adopted this breed as its dog of choice in order to promote the thug/gangsta lifestyle they employ. These dogs are trained by this element of society to fight, be aggressive, attack, etc. and I certainly wouldn't recommend that anyone take a fighting dog into their home and have it around their kids. But the bottom line is that the vast majority of pits out there never attack anyone and are amazingly loving and loyal dogs.

There's probably 10 million of them out there and we have a couple hundred attacks a year, so therefore the entire breed is bad? Right. I suppose that since blacks commit seven times more violent crime in this country than whites, therefore all black people must be dangerous and avoided and banned from entire cities, right?

Get the facts, people... don't just cherry pick sensationalistic news stories and base your entire opinions on them.

collegeboobies 04-02-2009 11:23 AM

crazy shit

Vicious_B 04-02-2009 11:24 AM

I think Smokey's point is if you eliminated Pitbulls then the people that get Pitbulls that are either irresponsible and neglectful owners, criminals that get them for image and intimidation and the people that get them to fight them would then get another breed and display the same traits which in turn could turn a statistically less dangerous dog into just as dangerous as the pitbull.
So if all the examples above were applied to german shepherds then I am sure the statistics for german shepherd attacks would increase.

Again this is just my opinion of what I think Smokey is trying to get across.

For the record, I don't really have an opinion on the argument at hand. My roommate sophomore year had a pitt that has was one of the nicest and well behaved dogs I have ever been around. I just felt I needed to chime in on Smokeys clueless argument as I was bewildered that he was actually believing in his logic.

Why do people always do that? If theyre defending something they know is bad they always try to find stuff that worse to make it look like what theyre doing is ok. Its fucking pathetic.

Were talking about dogs and not parents. And coming up with that vid to defend your case is just fucking stupid.

Beacuse they live by some reality principle. Their Ego have eaten their common sense.

I think it was the chihuahuas part that threw them off.

I don't have a Pitbull but have been around them and other big dogs my whole life. I have owned Shepherds, Huskies and Dobermans. Anyone of those dogs were capable at anytime of attacking and killing someone physically. The likelyhood of that happening was greatly reduced by the fact that these dogs were properly cared for, trained and disciplined. Sadly that is not always the case. Rarely does a dog, any dog, attack without some kind of reason.

book-mark 04-02-2009 11:42 AM

It saddens me to see how some people in this industry base their opinions solely on headlines from the media with NO factual backup whatsoever. The same people stand up and bitch when the media comes out and states crap like : “Pornography leads to child molestation", “Pornography fuels rapists and serial murderers” etc…
When it serves them or when they feel right, they are able to come up with some good arguments, but when it doesn’t , they turn into a bunch of ignorant fools…

Before you go hating a dog breed (which is the same as hating a human being based on his race) why not actually look up the facts ?

Yes , you are right, the only pitbull deaths that have happened were by pits that were trained as special killing machines.

1000 pitbulls will and could kill more people then 1000 fucking Chihuahuas. Can you guys really argue this point or are you that fucking dumb? I don't care what kind of special killa training program you put a Chihuahua through, he simply doesn't have the NATURAL strength as a pitbull.

Your wasting your time in here. They look tough but they aren't tough, lets do a Pitbull vs. Chiuaua cage fight and see how many seconds the pitbull will last.

Not very long for certain. :(

You are making up highly irrelevant things from thin air.

It's not in the same category or on the same degree even.

Otherwise it's okay to make up stuff (relevant) to get a point proven.

That's the big secret. :winkwink:

I made this list up now: ;)

*Child molesters should get one strike and then their nuts should hang in a lab somewhere.

*Child molesters shouldnt get born in the first place

.......child molesters should not be trained to be child molesters.

puh-lease so much for logic.s

I remember growing up with a huge shepherd and people telling my mother and father how crazy they were for having such a dangerous and aggressive dog around children. I had an aunt that refused to come to our house unless we locked the dog up. We heard the same about our Doberman. I honestly cannot remember hearing anything like the negative press pit bulls receive until about 8 years ago.

I am just saying that pitbulls weren't "created" in the last 10 years. If there has been a rise of pitbull aggression in the past 10 -15 years there has to be reason other than the dogs are just bad.



Quote:

Throughout their history in America, pit bull dogs have been valued as beloved members of the family. Their negative media image developed only recently. (Some suggest that an absurdly sensationalistic Sports Illustrated cover started the hysteria in 1987.) In fact, pit bulls have fulfilled important roles throughout the last 160-plus years of American history. In the nineteenth century, pit bulls were family pets of settlers crossing the United States. They were trusted to watch the children while the adults worked in the fields. As the years passed, pit bulls achieved a position of reverence among Americans, and they appeared in advertising campaigns such as Buster Brown and Pup Brand. A classic children’s television show, The Little Rascals, featured Petey the Pit Bull. The pit bull is the only breed to have graced the cover of Life magazine three times.

No they were breed in the 18th century. And used primery as sporting dogs. Gaming with dogs and bulls and other animals became illegal in England 1835 . When more people moved to USA they took their
pittbulls with them to breed.

That's the history, they didn't come from the sky... but the arise in pitbull attacks are simple. Media write about them a lot more, and a few self destructive mental nuts read these news and get them for the wrong reasons.

pornguy 04-02-2009 01:08 PM

If you want to compare imges of dogs and kids. Compare the images of the ones that have been bitten,, I will bet you that at least 7 out of 10 times you can tell which was a pit and which was not.

I know the history. My point is that at different times different dogs were considered more dangerous. It seems to go in cycles. I remember from when I was younger that rottweilers were considered the badasses and favored by the wanting to look tough element. 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.

No one is saying that a pit bull bite and a poodle bite would be the same. BUT one of the problems with news media reports is MANY times other breeds are identified as pit bulls because thats what people expect now. My friend has 3 full blood boxers. They have papers and everything. I cannot count how many times people have asked her if her pit bulls were vicious when we have taken them out on walks or to the dog parks.

Is the same as any news story, what will get more of a response? Pit bull attacks child or Mixed dog attacks child? Is that any different when the media does something like posting a headline that says "suspected rapist addicted to porn" when it was reported the cops found one magazine?

Dogs as just like a his boss, owner.
If his owner is an idiot or narcoman, dog will probablly atack everyone, even childrens.

But in general Pitbulls and Stafords are kids greatest friends. If putbull rise in normal familly, he will take care and protect childrens in that familly even from their parents.

They are great dogs if you give them enough attention...

In my country last pitbull atack was 10 years ago, and they are still today disreputable.

But almose everyday some other breed, mostly dogs that are no breed, homeless dogs, atack somebody, womans or childrens , and never go that drama like pitbull atack someone.

When pitbull atack then start, like you say "wich hunnting" on all media, in press,TV,radio

Unfortunatelly lot of bad peeple have pitbulls and train them for dogs fighting, and I think that is most problem whit pitbulls, that dogs fight.

I think that must be stoped!:mad:

Some of what you have to say may be very true...But again, the very study quoted in that initial video states that pits own a 21% share in human deaths from dog attacks.

Yes, poodles and other kick dog types do bite, but they do not have what it takes to rip apart the head of a 5 year old.

http://pit-bull-awareness-center.chr...old-attack.gif

Or a horse.

http://images.morris.com/images/lubb.../242962242.jpg

And the argument of how sweet everybody says their pit is...Well, that's just fucking dumb. How many serial killers have neighbors who said they were the perfect neighbor?

Here's an example of that:

__________________________________________________ _______________________

http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:...0/33415908.jpg

The dog rarely barked. He never growled, and his teeth - until a vicious attack Saturday night - had been reserved for chewing food, his owners say.

Chocolate - a caramel-colored pit bull a little more than a year old - was one of the most tranquil dogs Kenneth and Melissa Garrison had until, unprovoked, he snapped and nearly bit the nose off the couple's 1-year-old son.

Two days after the attack, sitting in the living room where their child's blood stained the carpet, the Garrisons were at a loss to explain Chocolate's actions, which left their son hospitalized for a night. Half of Jadyn Garrison's face was covered in a red scab yesterday, but doctors predict he will make a full recovery and not need surgery, the family said.

"Had we seen any signs that the dog was violent, he would have never came here," Melissa Garrison said.
__________________________________________________ _______________________



Try to convince me all you like but facts are facts. I hated pit bulls before my dog was almost killed by 2 of them. Now you think I'm going to change my mind?

My fiance had a half lab half pit mix. I knew the dog since it was a puppy but I would never even let it in my home. When we moved in together she had to give him up. Not one single shelter would take the dog unless she signed papers understanding that they would put it down immediately. People who run shelters typically love dogs so why was every shelter, within a 100 mile or so radius, be against taking in a pit mix? These people are dog experts who have dealt with pits and other breeds for years. What are your qualifications?

I've was bitten by 2 dogs in my childhood. My own families Cocker Spaniel and some little runt dog that lived down the street. In both instances I did something to provoke the bite. The first bite didn't even draw blood, the second one was on my earlobe and required a few stitches. Although both were very minor, they were still painful for a child. I was never mad at the dogs for my own stupidity......I've never heard of 2 Cocker Spaniels dragging a 7 month old baby out and tearing it apart. Have you?

i guess you are having a comprehension problem. i never said or insinuated that you slam people who like guns. i know for a fact that you love guns, i have seen your pictures, you have an awesome collection. my point is that with guns you advocate personal responsibility for the owners. it's the same thing. a gun in the wrong hands or a dog in the wrong hands is the same thing. any dog, not just a pit bull.

if you really think that pitbulls thirst for blood you're a fucking moron. plain and simple. a dog is just a dog, it learns its personality the same way people do, through experience and the people around it.

and as for these shelters, i have no idea what weird ass backwards state you live in, but every shelter here loves pitbulls and touts the breed as one of the best and most loyal you can own. the fact of the matter is that you're letting a media perpetuated stereotype control your perception. how many dog attacks do you think don't make the news everyday? pit bull is a hot word, and as the video also mentioned (to reference the 21% statistic) there are a large number of breeds that are mistaken for pit bulls on a daily basis. how much of that 21% is actually APBT or staffordshire bull terriers? and what about the other cross section of those statistics. as i sad, i myself have been on the receiving end of a black lab attack. i bet that happens quite often but doesn't get the buzz that a headline with "pit bull" in it.

this is all cyclical. before it was pits rottweilers were the breed to fear. before rotties it was german shepherds. every 10 - 15 years the "hot" dog changes that people should run for cover from. it's nothing more than hype and hysteria, and honestly i am disappointed to see that you would buy in to it. you have always seemed to be a reasonable guy, but i guess you are just as susceptible to being brainwashed as any other joe shmoe out there.

as for my qualifications, i have nothing official except being a dog lover all my life. interacting with hundreds of dogs through the course of regular day to day outside activities, and having MANY friends who have owned pit bulls. as well as all the research i put in to the breed before adopting one. i admit, i too was skeptical about adopting a pit with an unknown history from a shelter, but now that i have i am so happy that i did because i honestly could not ask for a better dog.

and while i haven't heard of of any cocker spaniels mauling anyone lately i certainly have heard of labs, mutts, min pins, and a host of other breeds that have had their fair share of mauling stories. so if you go by strictly what the news is reporting today to get the sensationalistic headlines views you're basing your opinion on erroneous information.

punish the deed and the irresponsible owners. not the breed.

These dogs are trained by this element of society to fight, be aggressive, attack, etc. and I certainly wouldn't recommend that anyone take a fighting dog into their home and have it around their kids. But the bottom line is that the vast majority of pits out there never attack anyone and are amazingly loving and loyal dogs.

There's probably 10 million of them out there and we have a couple hundred attacks a year, so therefore the entire breed is bad? Right. I suppose that since blacks commit seven times more violent crime in this country than whites, therefore all black people must be dangerous and avoided and banned from entire cities, right?

Get the facts, people... don't just cherry pick sensationalistic news stories and base your entire opinions on them.

what you are saying is total crap. they are used as attack/fighting dogs because that's what they've been bred for. lol to say it's becuase they're the most trainable dog is laughable. if fighting dogs were chosen because of trainability they would all be border collies or something similar, not a relatively unintelligent terrier. they're chosen/bred because of thier jaw strength, strength, stamina, pain threshold etc but intelligence doesn't come into it.

Exactly. They're trained to fight for a reason. Because these dogs have it in them to be agressive. Not the other way around you dumb fucking idiots.
