But they look cool, man.

Screw Pitbulls!

Cue blkt2 to tell us how gentle they are in 3, 2, 1....

I love my dogs, but that’s a breed that should no longer exist in my opinion.

Poor dogs get treated like chit, they used to feed them gunpowder to make them meaner or crazier for fighting.

Years ago I used to buy houses, sometimes we would go to Fort Worth Stop 6 area, which is the ghetto of Fort Worth.

We would find those dope house with a dog inside always a pit, and they would only have one small slot to sell the dope I assume crack.

They would just leave the dogs in there to die or whatever once they moved on to start another drug house.

Some are sweet, some are crazy, my uncle had one that lived to be 24 years old, was like his kid he attacked a guy one time but he already had all his teeth gone.

The dogs have been quarantined pending a dangerous dog evaluation, police said.

WT_?

I would not have one, nor would I have a Chow.

What's wrong with chows?
My aunt and uncle used to have 1. Sweet dog.
Heck of alot of hair.

one of them, at least

We had two of them growing up, both psycho's and they stink! Something about them coming towards you with those beady little eyes poking through their facial hair always making that grunting noise.

The last time a post on this topic came up a member came on and defended the breed for about five pages into the thread. Expecting the same here.

Owning a pit bull strokes your ego and elevates you above everyone else who doesn’t own one.

Yep.

Kind of like owning a PowerStroke.

Particular breed should be eliminated from the gene pool.

Pitbulls are the worst breed ever. Pitbull owners are the worst owners ever.

They are just a dog but they happen to be super strong and when things do go down it goes down pretty badly. I have one now but he is not aggressive enough for my taste; he has zero aggression and it is kind of a disappointment. I prefer a meaner dog that I can train. I can train an aggressive dog not to attack you but I can not train a non-aggressive one to attack without being abusive to it.

Pulled up a picture of the man killed and he looks just like I was expecting him to look.

That was me and I was not happy with the people who were calling for them to be shot on sight and said that they should use better discrimination and only shoot ones that were causing problems.

I don’t consider them dogs. Even wild animals typically run from humans. Pit Bulls are born killers so I treat them as such.

Humans are also born killers; we are all typing on something called the Texas hunting forum.....

You have even been in the profession of hunting men but it is unlikely that you had to kill many or any of them.

My dad was a killer and that is what drove him out of law enforcement.

At one point under the law Indians and the Chinese in the US and it's territories were not considered human and killing them was encouraged.

I am just needling you and perfectly understand the difference between types of killing.

You probably wouldn't like my Akbash then. At least he's gonna be big. The hair/coat is already a PITA.

Not all humans are born human killers. That’s the difference. The FedEx guy drove into my ranch today because he was lost. I helped him find his delivery location. If a pit bull came onto my ranch, I’m in a deadly force encounter.
