Pitbull's True Purpose

from here

Pit Bulls are constantly being demonized by media and politicians for their "aggressive" behavior. They are portrayed as baby eaters and vicious animals without conscience. These stories are sensationalized by the media to terrify ill informed Americans to convince them to make rash and unethical decisions.
One such decision made by the people and politicians is the Breed Specific Legislation. Due to this legislation thousands of pit bulls have been massacred in the name of public safety. That is absurd and downright cruel. Many of those dogs slaughtered were completely innocent and had no history of violence towards another human being. Yet people have no qualms about murdering thousands of them to weed out the handful of "dangerous" animals. Even the dogs that were forced to fight by their human owners such as Michael Vick's dogs are now rehabilitated and are members of caring homes. This legislation is immoral and wrong, killing any animal simply because of their breed is no better than racism in humans, in most of the cases of pit bull violence it is against other pit bulls and that is because they were forced to fight by their owners. This is a case of human fault and lack of compassion for another animal and trying to pin the blame everywhere but ourselves.  More information about Breed Specific Legislation can be found here.
