Oh give me a break. Just because one of those things helped its owner does not mean it is not a ticking time bomb ready to explode in a terror. They are totally unpredictable. Any normal person that has owned one that has attacked someone will be the first to tell you the dogs should be banned. They all say, my dog is so sweet. Then pow, it rips a kids face off.

Thank you for posting those links. It should be proof enough to any sane person that pit bulls are evil.

They’re dangerous. It’s just not worth the risk.
I would never have one around me.

The one that was stalking me in my neighborhood was pretty darn scary. It really felt odd the way that pit bull was acting. I’ve never felt like prey before but that day I did.

So hard to understand how the pit bull was once considered the “Nanny Dog”

When I go walking I carry a hickory handle for a maul to whack any dog that comes close enough to reach.

For backup, I carry a .380 Ruger.

Used the stick several times but have not had the opportunity to use the pistol.

In today’s society I advise anyone who walks to be armed at least with a “whacker” and if possible, a small pistol.

My gun does not have a mind of its own. Your analogy has been tried before and falls down when logic is applied.

The reference to communism was way over the top, but I understand people sometimes reach for emotionalism when logic and reason do not support their position.
