That why a breed ban will be effective.

Other breeds are worse than pit bulls and prohibition never works. How about holding ALL dog owners responsible for their pets. Maybe require pet owners to carry pet responsibility insurance.

I don't think that will help very much. It might stop a few people from getting dangerous pets, but those that do still have a ticking time bomb on their hands. There will still be attacks. They are still ubstable dogs, due to the long breeding, it's in their genes. A lousy owner will make them worse, but that bred in danger is still there. Having seen the scars left by two attacks to friends, well.............The better idea is to prevent attacks from occuring, not by having some insurance company pay after one happens.

Yea, great idea. The kid with his face chewed off will be real comforted knowing the owner of the dog has insurance for the reconstructive surgery.
