First let me say that the members of this website, for the most part, are probably some of the more responsible members of society. That being said, I feel the pit owners on here are well aware of the capabilities of this breed. As I have stated before in the other thread the years of worthless trash abusing this breed is what has taken its toll on the pit. Steroids, and other drugs, phisical abuse, neglect, and of course dog fighting. I have also seen the story old the elderly woman's dog, and that again is more than likely neglect. Failure to socialize, excersise, and interact with a dog of any kind is also a form of abuse and neglect. I understand the stigma this breed has gained, and many of us are trying hard to change that, by adopting rescue dogs and trying to stop the abuse of this breed. When others start speaking negatively, and almost in a hateful manner, about the breed it does nothing to help the situation out. It also starts to sound very reminiscent of the anti gun society. If you do not wish to help some of these horribly abused animals in any way, that is fine, but please don't add fuel to the fire.
