    Do you really think these people go for Pomeranians instead? Not an American bulldog or a rottweiler or a doberman… No… They can’t buy a Pitbull so they get a Chihuahua instead!

    If a higher percentage of pitbull owners are morons then no shit there will be more attacks per capita, it doesn’t mean that the breed is the issue!

    Also the problem with these stats is that they’re based on victim reports, victims that very often don’t know dogs and will call any big dog with short hair a Pitbull. The stats are extremely unreliable and in most places there’s just no actual tracking of the breeds that committed the attack. In places where there is, as I previously mentioned, attacks don’t go down it’s just other breeds that are reported and the attacks cause just as much damage because the dogs aren’t any smaller.
