I'm all for punishing the animals who train these dogs to do things like that, but it really isn't the fault of the dog. A properly trained and socialized pit bull isn't going to gnaw poor little Johny's arm off on a Tuesday, just because he's a pit bull.
and also, it reminds me of shark panic. One person gets bit by a shark...so let's go kill hundreds of them because they *might* bite someone.
and killing a dog because it "looks" like a pit bull is, in a word, bullshit. Absolute and complete BULLSHIT.

Fortunately, we can choose whether we will go into the water if sharks are a threat. Postal workers cannot choose their work route and children cannot choose their neighborhood. If you want to get mad, take it out on the irresponsible owners. Again, I don't agree with this, I personally think people should have to get a license to own a pet-but how realistic is this? People suck.
