Pit bulls are innocent
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.
By Ken Foster [2007-08-20]

  • Let's see....

    According to stats, pit bulls and pit bull mixes are responsible for about 20-30% of all dog attack fatalaties.

    According to pit bull lovers, pit bull attacks happen because their owners are irresponsible and ignorant.

    Just when are these owners suddenly going to change?

    They aren't.

    So why allow the ownership of unpredictable killers who are known as great escape artists and often come from abusive pasts?
