    The problem is people, not any particular breed. Any large breed can be dangerous if trained to be. That pits statistically bite more is just a function of human culture, not anything innate in the breed.

      “Any large breed can be dangerous if trained to be” is vastly different from “this breed is dangerous unless trained not to be, and even then, it’s iffy.”

      Anyone who thinks that a breed of dogs bred specifically for fighting has no innate traits for fighting has no idea what they are talking about.

        Pits are bred for fighting other dogs, not people. All large breeds are dangerous if not trained properly. Dogs are apex predators and bringing them into their home doesn’t change that.

          I’m sure an animal bred to fight makes sure it only fights the four-legged ones. 🙄

          Not all large breeds are dangerous in the same way. Trying to pretend they are against all the evidence to the contrary is either disingenuous or ignorant.

            Yes, actually. They are bred not to attack people so they don’t bite their handlers.

            Literally any large breed that has not been neutered or spayed is more likely to cause a serious bite than a neutered or spayed pit bull. You are acting like they are some huge outlier and they are not. There are far more significant factors than breed at play.

              Yeah, you really have no idea what you’re talking about. That’s not how genetics or dogs work. You’re also building strawman and I can’t be bothered any more.

              Keep on showing off your level of understanding if that floats your boat. You’re part of the problem.

                Facts that contradict your beliefs do not qualify as a straw man. People often turn to insults when proven wrong to protect their egos.
