I frequent some Golden Retriever boards and those dedicated dog owners freak at the mention of breed bans.
There are only bad owners, not bad breeds says they.
That's probably true, but this particular breed seems to be deadly when its set off, regardless of the reason.
Its not just a bite as with many other breeds, its life and death.
Ban them.

What about Bulldogs and Poodles?, Bulldogs have the hardest bite and Poodles with the sharpest teeth. When either of these dogs bite it's going to to the most damage. Should they be banned to?
This sort of seems like dog racism like when (and in some cases still) people thought that the black people where more violent than other "kinds" of people. [/b][/quote]
Bulldogs and Poodles don't have the muscle mass or strength that Pit Bulls have.
In addition to thier deadly teeth and quciker-than-most breeds bloodthirsty temper, they have the size to overwhelm most people, if applied.
Bulldogs you can out run, or because they're smaller, they're not likley to jump up at you (and continue you at you) like a 100lb Pitbull.
Many poodles can be quite easily pushed or thrown aside in an attack.
Our 60+lb 7 month old lab cross bears a mean tooth and is getting big enough to be somewhat difficult (when she gets cranky) if she is a bad girl and jumps up at me. Id she had a big bad temper and wouldn't back down when I tell her too....
