NO dog has been the VICTIM of abuse more so than the Pit Bull. And that is a fact.

That we can agree on. And it is to our shame.

I think you are helping to make a great breed of dogs, owned by more losers and trash, instead of good, caring people that would be able to give them a good home and family.

I think I know what you are saying here. The trouble is you are outnumbered by the losers and trash, and it is silly to not admit that they are not contributing more to the gene pool than the good people are. You are outnumbered by a power of 10. So well-meaning as you are, you are acting as if your intentions change the reality. They don't. If you wanted to help individual pit bulls, you could rescue them, spay/neuter them, and advocate against their further breeding.

Really bad sentence.... correcting last paragraph from above.

I don't think my intentions are trying to change the reality. The reality right now is that more people own Pit bulls than most other breeds. The abuse is going to happen regardless of whether or not we encourage people to own Pit Bulls. By encouraging good people not to own Pits, it is not changing the fact that the trash of this world will continue to breed and fight Pits. I think the best way to stop the abuse and the problem is by attacking dog fighting, Pit Bull abuse, and encouraging responsible ownership of the breed. That is the decision I have come to on how to help fight this problem..... You have obviously chosen to attack and advocate against the breed, and encourage people not to own, breed or purchase Pits. You see no use for them, you think any dog could do anything a Pit could do, and probably better. To you, they are not a worthwhile breed and serve no purpose on the face of this planet. But I still don't see how that helps the problem of the abuse or in anyway helps to put an end to the problem as a whole.
