Agreed. Forced sterilization should be the law.

Nah, asshole humans who raise them to be vicious shouldn’t exist as a general rule, all dogs have the capacity to be vicious, yet, I don’t see the same disdain for chihuahuas, or shih tzus

I'd be fine if they were just regulated the same way, say, wolves are.

I hate when people let their off leash dogs run up to my leashed dogs (we only walk in leash required areas). They always yell "they're friendly" And I have to yell back "mine arent". A suprising number of people still just mosey over slowly half-heartedly calling their dog while lm actively backing up and restraining my growling dog. One of my dogs is a rescue and she will fight anything if it charges her, a dog, a bike, a horse - she does not care.

Some people should not be allowed to have a dog.

That's weird, she usually only bites me.

Was that a child's leg that just fell out of her mouth?

Negativity bias? Fact bias.

Pit bulls are the single mostly likely breed to be involved in a bite incident. Over 22% of all bite incidents are pit bulls. Not only that, they are the single most likely breed to be involved in a fatal attack.

So they bite the most, and their attacks are most often the deadliest.

I know several people with scars on their faces from pitbulls. Four of them had to get reconstructive surgery.

I grew up with one so I am not a hater, but I know they can be very dangerous especially around other dogs.

I thought it was pink lipstick

I love dogs and absolutely can't stand people that say: There's no bad dogs, just bad owners.

It's just as stupid as people with their bullshit: Guns don't kill people, people do!

Yea asshole, but a AK 47 VS a 6 piece revolver will do VASTLY different amount of damage.

Same with Pitbull. They are bred to IGNORE pain as they attack. Their jaws are bred to clamp down with maximum force.

Bad owner or not, some shit shouldn't be in the possession of random citizens.

I've found that having a "nervous, do not pet" vest has helped. Thankfully, it seems to have worked well so far.

I can understand people being scared of big dogs.

It wasn’t until after I realised that non-dog people would have shit themselves and shown fear. Which could have triggered the dog to attack.

So that's a well founded fear; no? IMO if your pet, regardless what it is, requires other people to know how to act to avoid being possibly mauled; it has absolutely no business being in public.

My badish encounter with my friend's giant pit basically went the same. The second my hand was in his mouth he realized he fucked up and was my best friend after.

In his defense, my roommate's cat had just started spraying on everything.

That sounds like an awful way to live with a large dog.

A dog is a tamed wolf, imagine trying to fight one to death with nothing but your fists.
