    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.

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

          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?

      Can this possibly be true?
      If a dog switches to aggressive mode and stops listening to commands, trying to attack (another dog, a cat, a deer, a bird, a human) that’s what I mean by “going postal”. In most cases they are restrained on leash. The outcome, and the target (for the sake of this argument) are not important. It is not possible to predict accurately when they will do this.

          I mean that’s fairly obvious from subtext. If you had, you would most likely be too traumatised to be defending them on an online forum.
