4 days agoThe vast majority of pitbull owners are responsible and aware of the dangers that originally bred for fighting dogs will always have.
But for every 10 good owners, there is 1 ignorant, dysfunction, asshole who doesn’t control their dog and let’s them get aggressive or doesn’t correct their instincts for prey seeking behavior.
Thats when children get mauled, and small dogs die.
I don’t think pitbulls should be banned, but I do think that owners who do not take care of them or raise a traumatized fighting dog, should be charged as if they had been recklessly shooting a gun and hurt someone. Tldr Pitbulls, when mishandled, become deadly weapons. Owners of violent dogs should be treated as harshly as possible. There’s no excuse.
At least it’s not shungight. Viral medical trends are problematic when they get sold as cure calls, bad when it’s unfounded, worse when it’s half true. Poisons the well.
