Wow, surprisingly the majority voted yes

And I find it funny, that the Bull Terrier is not a Pit Bull. Once again the media screwed up and is giving them a bad name..

True, but they are lumping all of the so called "fighting dogs" into one category - Pitbull. The fact that Bull Terriers were used for bull baiting makes the media automatically refer to them as "Pit Bulls". Staffordshire Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, American Pitbull Terriers and Bull Terriers were all once used for bull baiting.

I voted NO, I love these breeds and feel they should be treated the same as every other dog on the planet. They should be properly bred and sold only to owners that are knowledged and experienced with the breeds. Most of the people that have these dogs only use them for protection and dog fighting - when the true pitbull is a loving, devoted creature that thrives on human companionship.

NO BSL!

Its just sad that people are so quick to judge (not just dogs, but everything in general) and see opinion as fact and won't even educate themselves first

It is very sad, why the heck dont they ban guns? And smoking? These things kill people way more often than any dog does. Why dont they lock up all of the people that are aggressive and "look like they are killers", into a little cell and then euthanize them? It just breaks my heart that these dogs have to be blamed for peoples actions, when us humans are the most dangerous things on earth. I wish I could take all of those dogs and show them the love and respect they deserve. Then I would take all of their "owners" and put them on a chain, not give them any food/water and beat them. Maybe then they would realize that almost every dog attack has a reason - and that pitbulls are almost driven to insanity because of the conditions they live in.
