Anyone whos been around a lot of dogs will tell you that small dogs are more bitey.

There you go, thats exactly the point. But they aren't killing any babies. Pitbulls were bred for fighting. People have Tigers and Lions as pets too. Is that also justified?

The fact that a pit bull is stronger and can do more damage is also not the dogs fault.

Of course it's not the dog's fault. It is just an animal. It's the breeders' and the owners' fault. Nobody is advocating for euthanasing Pitbulls. Maybe just get a Golden Retriever if you're just looking for a pet next time.

What do you think happens to all the unadopted pitbulls, pizza parties every Friday? Nope, it's euthanasia.

Nobody is advocating for euthanasing Pitbulls.

There are a shitload of people who advocate for completely destroying this breed of dog.

Yes, the breed should be distroyed. But not the poor living animals. We should simply stop breeding more of them. Pitbulls are a freak of nature created for the amusement of humans.

I mean, dog breeding is in general terribly inhumane. All dogs should ideally be mutts. They'd certainly all be healthier and have a better quality of life.
