How stupid can folks really be????

before i say this, i want to make it perfectly clear that i love dogs.
i've owned them. i was raised with them. friends had them. been around dogs all my life and i love the heck out of them.

so i was reading the news this morning, a 4 year old boy in tampa fl. with an icecream attacked and mauled to death by his uncle's pit bulls. very sad. gonna be a ton of crying at a funeral for the little guy.

THEN i saw another news article. 7-month old infant boy killed by another "family dog"
http://www.wtsp.com/story/news/nati...acks-kills-7-month-old-baby-in-ohio/12932611/
an "american staffordshire terrier" which is just a fancy named pit bull breed.

again I LOVE DOGS but stupidity has got to stop. you cannot just blame owners. the breeds need to be banned.

how many maimings and killings by these dogs in the past 25 years? hundreds
how many by hounds, labs, setters, retrievers, german shepherds, dobermans, etc?
pretty much NONE

grrrrrrrr. stupidity. why own a dog that is bred to kill and fight? does it make you feel tough or something. it's stupid.
