    I know a handful of pits who have bitten and severely injured people. For your positive anecdote there is a negative to match.

      Literally all I’m saying is that the vast majority of pit bulls aren’t violent. I fucking said I’m in favor of spaying and neutering the breed out of existence because the few that do become violent are excessively dangerous.

        Technically it is disengenuous to say statistically and then make up a statistic

            Assuming an average lifespan of roughly 10 years, there’s a roughly 1 in 1,000 chance that a given pit bull will ever attack a human or animal.

            So 1 in every 1000 will attack a human? Is that actually a good argument for pit bulls?

              Its like saying 95% of catholic priests have not molested a child, meaning 1 in 20 definitely have, lol.
