State proposals to ban pit bulls reflect society's worst fears and prejudices. As the Michael Vick scandal has made clear, it is humans and not the dogs who are the criminals.
  • Do pit bulls fight fair?

    In my very limited experience of dogs fighting, they are short and sharp. As soon as one dog submits, the other one stops. Quite chivalrous really.

    From what I hear of pit bulls, they fight to kill, and if the other dog submits, it kills it anyway. Is this true? Have you ever seen a pit bull fight by the rules?
