  • Yes, owner surveys over tens of thousands of individuals regardless of breed meaning no implicit bias. The survey finds the same result across all breeds, the survey isn’t specific to pits.

    You really thought you did something there didn’t you? Please learn to trust science over inflammatory media

    Like if everyone claimed they had a perfect puppy, your critique would hold water, but flaws were reported across all breeds…




  • Okay, because I saw you’re a fan of banpitbull subreddit.

    I need to ask a very simple question. Do you care about actual safety, or do you just want pitbulls banned? Like what is your goal?

    Because all science in the last 5 years states people, not pitbulls, are the problem. Globally. That’s the issue.

    If you actually want “less harm and death done” then you need to listen to the scientific experts and stop pushing for BSL, and instead push for things that move towards the goal of less harm and death.

    But okay let’s address the rest now

    Are you shitting me? https://financesonline.com/number-of-dogs-in-the-us/

    You don’t need to have a census to have a pretty damn good idea of how many there are. And you all keep telling me that I’m disingenuous.

    You say that and then the link you provided did not give me a very good idea about per capita of the breeds… I have no idea how many of any breed there are.

    This is a persons representation of a study. Not the study. but it links to here (https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abk0639) So if breed has nothing to do with anything. How come there’s qualities organized by breed by the study? You can’t claim that behaviors aren’t affected by breed, then show me a study that shows a bunch of behaviors organized by breed. And you all keep telling me that I’m disingenuous.

    You are being disingenuous… Less than 9% difference across all breeds. A dog is a dog is a dog. Some howl, some don’t. Some are more active. A dog is a dog is a dog.

    Except this misses one big premise… Amount of cases can be exactly the same, but severity of each case can go down severely. Also amount of cases can be the same, but have less fatalities!

    Well it was counting hospitalizations… So it’s safe to say we’re only talking about severe ones…




  • Point of order: That’s not an appeal to authority. The other user was pointing out organizations that have actual expertise in the field. “Appeal to authority” is if they said “Bill Gates said pitbulls are fine”

    He’s an authority figure, but not expertise in the matter.

    Whereas the CDC, the humane society, the American veterinary association etc etc are actually experts in at least some part of the argument.


  • The glasses are OP, everyone’s like “the coin bruh”

    Nah bruh, you know the power of speeches? Now have it so everyone’s on your side all the time. There’s no cooldown, it’s just always active.

    You can just talk your way into anything. You don’t need money if you don’t have to pay for anything, if you want money you can still talk your way into having it. You wanna be president? Why not! Etc etc. The glasses are unreasonable.

    I got into a huge argument with that fuck, ended up blocking them because I just couldn’t deal with the sheer Hamas ball gargling/anti-Semitism/general racism they espoused. That user is not a good faith arguer, they’ll shout racist bullshit and then call you racist for calling them out.
