Christy Cornell AND HER HATER MATES GET MORE DESPERATE BY THE DAY AS BSL IS FALLING DOWN ACROSS THE COUNTRY THEIR EFFORTS WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY FANATICAL LIKE THIS ONE

It's time, PAST time, to ban the dog breed created solely to fight other dogs and and torture animals. All the legally defined pitbull type dogs should have been banned when dog fighting was outlawed, but instead of doing the right thing and ending the suffering of the pitbulls/preventing the suffering of the humans, bleeding heart animal lovers have tried to repurpose pitbulls as pets with disastrous results. Their desire to salvage the putbull breed may have been well intentioned, but releasing a fighting breed into the public on a widescale basis was not what should have happened. Pitbulls were never meant to be family pets. They weren't bred to be relatively safe and reliable dogs for people to own as companion animals. The rate of human fatalities from pitbull type dogs dog attacks is unacceptable. Domesticated dogs should not be killing 20-27 people per year like pitbulls have done for the last 5 years. Most human dog bite fatalities come from pitbull type dogs legally defined as American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, American Pitbull Terriers and the crosses and mixed breeds of these three closely related breeds. American Bully's are included in the legal definition of pitbull type dogs because they are directly bred from the staffies. American Bulldogs had pitbulls in their foundation dogs and have also had registered APBT blood infused in their lines recently. Most progressive breed specicific laws include American Bulldogs because they are pitbull mixes/crossbreeds.
There are 150+ other breeds of dogs to choose from which are much lower risk than pitbulls. Many of these relatively less dangerous breeds are medium to large sized dogs and they can do everything a pitbull can do. So why choose a pitbull as a pet when other great breeds are widely available and are less likely to kill you, your family , friends, neighbors, and even people innocently walking down the street? Other breeds can be just as much fun, but they aren't as dangerous to society. It's time to choose safer dogs as pets. If you don't want to do it for ethical reasons, maybe you should think about doing it to reduce your risk of going to jail because your pet dog killed someone. If you don't care about other humans and yourself, then maybe you need to realize that all the legitimate pet pitbull owners are unintentionally allowing cruel dog fighters to hide in plain sight. As long as pitbulls are legal to own, dog fighters will be harder to catch and harder to prosecute because dog fighters can claim they are legitimate pet pitbull owners and deny fighting their dogs. If pitbulls were illegal, pitbulls would be less abused. Only a few underground dog fighters would escape the law and continue to illegally keep a few pitbulls, dog fighting could be easily prosecuted and greatly reduced.
Pitbulls should have been banned when dogfighting was banned. They should have been completely banned from being bred, but with existing pitbulls grandfathered in to live out their lives as long as their owners followed BSL restrictions and the existing pet pitbulls didn't attack. Pitbulls could have peacefully become extinct just like many other dog breeds of the past have done. Historically, these now extinct breeds were allowed to become non-existent in their past from because they were deemed dangerous and were purposely let go extinct or people simply just quit breeding them because they were unneeded for working dog tasks and no one wanted them as pets.http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Extinct_dog_breeds

Pitbulls were created to torture/bait other animals (bulls, bears, etc.) and to fight other dogs. This would happen in a confined area like a dug out pit, and/or sometimes with the baited animal chained/tied to not be able to escape. This type of blood sport originated in Rome, was perfected and popularized in England, and eventually the dog fighting aspect made its way to America and other parts to the world.http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog-baiting
Pitbulls were bred from crossing the original bulldog (the Molosser bulldog of old European and Greco-Roman lineage, not the modern day Chinese pug influenced AKC English Bulldog) with the common terriers of the time ( Old White English, Old English/Black terriers, Black and Tan terriers), some of these terriers now being extinct.

This bulldog-terrier cross created a dog whose stamina and physical characteristics allows it to give/take much damage in a fight and and whose gameness would allow it to fight through pain and fight for prolonged periods. Pitbulls have always been fighting dogs and are still, even today, the number one choice for dogfighters- being used in frequent, but illegal dog fighting matches.
Some pitbulls were used by butchers and by farmers-mainly as CATCH dogs to GRIP animals by the head/nose and HOLD the animal to be butchered or otherwise confined. There is currently a movement by pro-pitbull propagandists to depict pitbulls historically as some type of cow herding dog. This inaccurate portrayal is getting way too much traction-soon to be another common myth which is ignorantly spread in attempts to re-write history. There is a big difference between what a bulldog does to a cow and what a cattle dog does. Pro-pitbull propagandists are trying to whitewash the bloody history of pitbulls ( many times called bulldogs). Occasionally pitbulls were used for herding, but for the most part, they were used as gripper dogs to subdue wild cows and hogs. These were/are the types of animals that no one cared about if they were harmed when being caught by a gripper bred dog. Pitbulls are still the number one catch dog used in hog hunting even today. If you want to see what pitbulls typically do best, go watch a hog dog video on YouTube and you will see that the animals which pitbulls "catch" are mangled and savaged by the dog during the process of being caught. Ears are ripped or even torn off, noses mutilated, cheeks ripped, and worse. Farmers would never want their herds of valuable livestock treated that way. That kind of damage is NOT what herding dogs are suposed to do, but it is what gripper bred dogs do when they catch an animal that is soon to be slaughtered by a hunter. Or by a butcher in the past. There actually was a time when the butchers mistakenly thought that torturing a bull/hog made the meat better.http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catch_dog
When dog fighting became illegal, an idiotic attempt began to repurpose these fighting bred-gripper dogs as safe family pets. The push to mainstream pitbulls as pets became even harder when the Vick trial brought illegal dog fighting more into the public eye. This failed experiment at making pitbulls into family dogs needs to stop. Too many people are dying from family pets. Domesticated dogs should NOT be killing 27 people per year. No other dog even comes close to killing as many people as pitbulls do. For the last 5+ years, pitbulls have killed 22-27 people per year. That rate is more than all the 150+ other AKC breeds do during that time period COMBINED.
