It’s kind of funny how the idea of behavior being a result of breeding goes out the window when it comes to pitbulls. Retrievers naturally retrieve, collies naturally herd, but when a murder-canine eats a family it’s all “oh it could have been any breed”.

it's more nuanced - "pitbull" isn't a single breed, it's a category

none of the dogs in the category were bred to kill indiscriminately - they were expected to obey handlers just like any other working breed

and there are a number of fighting breeds outside of the category as well

    Obey handlers to do what?

    • micromacrofoot 18 hours ago

      to not bite people! it's the compact between species that is the reason dogs were allowed to become dogs!

      but yes it's a bit irresponsible to allow the proliferation of some strong breeds, breeding should be a serious crime... these dogs are all over the southern us

It’s just wokery innit. Can’t even train dogs to murder children nowadays because the woke brigade will cancel you.
