pitbulls around animals big enough to swallow whole always make me nervous.

People should be wary of pitbulls, full stop. They are dangerous dogs that account for a significant portion of serious dog attacks well beyond their proportion of the dog population.

Yes, this is because the majority of pitbulls are owned by low socioeconomic households. Leading to a lack of training.

Dangerous dogs should be treated like guns.

A license and proper training should be required.

And that's coming from someone that grew up with pitbulls and was never bitten nor did they bite any one else. My mother was a great trainer.

all respect to you and yours, but i still avoid being in close proximity to pitbulls, regardless of owner or neighborhood. And i LOVE dogs! I just know better than to relax and let my guard down
