it was more of a warning not to be a d**khead.
The difference is that I believe there is a almost no chance these types of dogs are going to lose their nut and tear out my (or my kids throat).
I've always been a dog owner, and my children are very comfortable and responsible around animals. However, I don't bring the kids over to my friends house who have the pit-bull. Its a very gentel and friendly dog, but I can't watch them every minute, so I won't risk it.
I understand my view is a little close-minded, but I've heard and read way too many story about pit-bull attacks.
I guess I consider this the difference..
There is a chance/risk of a
bite from any dog, but there is a greater risk of a dog
attack from a Pit-bull.
