Any dog has the potential of attacking someone (it's an animal and it's not rational), the difference is since pitbulls are very strong, they do more damage than a little teacup chihuahua.

My pitbull was abused as a baby by her previous owner, and now she's very scared of everything and everyone, she'd never hurt a fly. She's the sweetest dog.

It's shit like this that makes pitbulls and pitbull owners to look bad.

This video is retarded. That pitbull was probably minding his/her own business and gramps and gramma probably fucked with him...

Shit like this happens all the time in foreign countries, since most of them don't have the animal cruelty laws like here... and most of them hate pitbulls just because of what they are.
87turbo is the only person leaning towards blaming the whole breed. I dont know enough about dogs to form an opinion on if it is owner or breed. All i know is that if someone were to find the statistics i am pretty sure we would find that on average a pitbulls account for more injuries than any other breed. Now on a random encounter with a dog what should be my logical response be if that dog ends up being a pitbull? Raise or lower my awareness? Raise is the obvious answer. Now does it matter if its the owner faults that pits have a violent reputation, who cares, that doesn't change the situation.

A month or so ago i was doing some rounds at some rental property, there is a empty pitch black old school barn on the property (that no one is supposed to use). I heard some noises from the barn, so i walk in. I find 2 pits barking their asses off at me. Luckily they were chained up and not able to get to me. Did i shoot them just because they were a few feet away, barking like crazy animals at me and because they are pitbulls? NO. Like any situation you assess the situation and move on. In this situation i blame the owners for their aggression, because if i was chained up in the pitch black rolling in my own piss i would be pissed off too!

For whatever its worth, i ran into one of the same dogs a week or so later and it was a really sweet dog (at that moment at least).
