most people still get bitten by labradors and german shepherds (alsatians in English) because those races are still most popular. I hope your scars weren't too bad, Gopi, some kid in my highschool had same experience, let's just say he wasn't someone you wanted to sit across at lunch.
Seems to me to be like a debate about bullet calibers. ".50 should be banned" but even .22 still can kill a man. Too bad these breeds appeal mostly to young impressionable kids who buy one, loose interest or use 'em in a way they shouldn't be used.
In my humble opinion, irresponsible fucks shouldn't be allowed to own guns, dogs or kids.

You're wrong there champ, they were bred for fighting (hence the 'pit' part) each other for fun and bets of our fellow men.
Breed you're mixing them up with is the South African boerboel, a mean beast if there ever was one, not some small doggie with huge jaws like a pitbull.
Girl friend of mine owns a couple,
very territorial and protective, man stopppers. Difference is she charges € 1250 a puppy, guess that weeds out most dumb teenagers with something to compensate...
