Interesting that A10anis keeps citing "the data and statistics", and yet hasn't cited a single datum or statistic. Although completely unrelated to knowledge of dog attacks, his shocking ignorance of exercise physiology (the relationship between long duration aerobic exercise and muscle catabolism is pretty well established -- exhaust your Glucose stores, and your body starts breaking down muscle and fat to keep your body moving) doesn't help his case much.

I haven't studied the "inherent violence" of the American Pit Bull Terrier to any great extent, so without any actual data, who knows whether or not they truly are "inherently violent". What I can say is that there are a number of breeds that are commonly mistaken for the Pit Bull, and dog attacks by any breed that vaguely looks like a Pit Bull often get called a "Pit Bull Attack" in the media. I have never owned a Pit, but my interactions with the breed suggest that they are very mellow and gentle: the polar opposite of, say, the highly strung, yappy, and territorial Chihuahua. The difference however is that if you piss a Chihuahua off it's not going to be able to do much to hurt you, whereas an angry Pit Bull can kill you. Of course, this is all just conjecture from anecdote, but until someone actually posts some data, that's all we have to go on.

First off, the treadmill is healthy for the dog, and burns off energy, making the easier to control let alone giving him "something to do". Some people just don't have the time to exercise their dog for the hour or so every day like every dog NEEDS to, no matter what the breed. You have 7 acres of squirrels? Good for you! There's a lot of people who live in condos and apartments where taking the dog for a walk is more dangerous to this dog AND handler than this pit probably is to anyone else.

Your statistics aren't complete...

There are more "vicious" attacks on people by Shepherds worldwide then there are actual pitbull dogs. THAT'S a statistic too.

Dogs can be looked at like guns.

Chihuahua = Ether gas BB gun
Jack Russell = .22 target pistol
Shepherd = .308 bolt action hunting rifle
Pitbull - AK47

If the gun is taken care of, and used properly, it won't suddenly take off and kill a seeing eye dog any more than a properly cared for pitbull.

My theory is that Labs are nice because they don't have as extensive a history of selective breeding (read: inbreeding) as other dogs. Wolf to Lab -- not such a massive genome shift. Wolf to Poodle/Chihuahua = ... bound to be a few crossed wires in there.

The Greatwawa happened just like this....
Great Dane + Chihuahua

There are others, too. Why is it that chihuahuas are the Sift's favorite dancing dog?

Do you know what you get when you mate a Great Dane with a Chihuahua?

A dead Chihuahua.

Those are not police officers, they're probably the maintenance workers who have to clean up the shit he just did.
That's probably a public transport. I'm fine with grafitti artists painting on the walls of rundown buildings and whatnot, specially if the artist is good. This is pure vandalism, and everyone pays for it. Not to mention that it's awful taking a ride on a train with painted windows. At least stick to the body of the train only.


Or maybe try to paint something besides your fucking tagger handle. I swear to god, all the little pricks that run around writing their name on shit like so many little chihuahuas pissing. I saw a tag the other day that said "Pac Man". The "artist" actually even did draw something next to his name this time: a little retarded looking, sort-of half-impression of Pac Man. Seriously... what kind of an inbred, dumbshit, screw up do you have to be to not be able to draw Pac Man???
