I'm a dog guy. I love my Dachshund and Golden Doodle. But I just don't understand how these Pit Bull owners don't get that these things are frikking weapons. Correct that, I have gone to dog parks, and after meeting the owners of the vast majority of these dogs, I kinda do understand. That being said....

It might be the nicest sweetest dog 99.999% of the time, but the second it becomes unhinged, there's nothing you can do to stop them unless you have a firearm.

Just ban the breed already FFS.

It’s even dumber to have 2. Pact mentality kicks in and you have zero chance of control.

Since so many dogs in shelters have some pit bull in them the easiest solution is they should start putting down every pit and pit mix that comes in to a shelter. No wait, no rehoming, nuke it as soon as it comes through the door. You’ll drive down the dog population at the same time and provide a final solution to the pitbull problem.

The reasonable next step is make everyone with a dog that has any pit in it register their weapon and charge exorbitant home or renters insurance premiums for anyone who’s chosen to own one of these AR15 dogs. I think it may be a good idea to provide some sort of additional compensation to vets to encourage them to put down any pit or pit mix when they come in for a standard vet visit. Call it an accident and give the family a coupon to get a yorkie poo.

I saw that story earlier on a different site, they didn't mention the breed but I knew it would be pit bulls.

This is a little extreme, mainly the last couple sentences.

Extreme? I hardly see how the targeted genocide of an entire breed is extreme. You must love watching the daily deluge of stories where pit bulls are tearing children limb from limb, eating their precious child faces, and being told they’re a good doggo then given a treat.

You don’t genocide dogs. You exterminate them. You can’t genocide animals, only people.

Just sterilize them all and make it illegal to breed them.

The breed only exists because humans created it. I don't see anything morally wrong with ending that breed.

Sure you can. Blue Fin Tuna is nearly extinct because of how delicious they are

Just gotta figure out how to get the right kind of wine pairings for pit bulls

Two young children are dead and their mother suffered major injuries after two family dogs attacked a baby and toddler outside their West Tennessee home.

Kirstie Bennard, 30, suffered critical injuries when she tried to intervene in the attack on her 5-month-old boy, Hollace Dean, and 2-year-old girl, Lilly Jane, family and police said.

The mauling, Gibson said, lasted about 10 minutes.

Gibson wrote on Facebook Bennard suffered “uncountable amount of stitches and bite marks over her entire body, including her face.”

The dogs – two pit bulls that belonged to the family

Yay, more Pitbull attacks. This time, dead kids. Pitbulls are half the problem, Pitbull owners the other half. It may be cold, considering what they went through, but the parents should be charged.

Looks like the dogs were raised well with all precautions taken. The issue is it's just a dangerous breed. They have been bred to fight and kill. You can train them all you want, but there's always a chance their genetics take over. And yes dogs do inherit behavioral tendencies, dispositions, and moods.

For example, if you own a dachshund they may dig holes in your yard... Which is annoying. No matter how much you train them, they may do that. A pitbull, on the other hand, may just murder some people.

The other issue is that when pitbulls do snap, they are very difficult to stop.

Sterilizing pitbull type dogs is the solution. We no longer need dogs bred to fight for sport, as dog fighting is illegal.

Imagine....

We have this fun robotic toy that can entertain your family, provide love and companionship, but it's got a catch. One in 10,000 tend to glitch out and attack and may kill one or more of your family members, or random strangers. Would you bring this robot home to your family?

If you have any brains at all you should realize that dogs act very very differently alone than in pairs or more, you should really never have more than one dog if you have kids almost regardless of breed, personally I would never have a pitbull, they are not only capable and bred to be able to kill a child easily but they are also dumber than a fence post as a breed, they were bred to be violent and stupid as a smart dog doesnt want to get torn to shreds in a pit by another dog
