All modern dogs are designer-animals that have been engineered by man.
The natural dog was so different then what we buy for pets today.
Dogs have been bred for 10,000 years to do exact, and very specific task for their owners.
Dachshund's for example where bred to fight badgers inside their underground dens. It takes a 1,000 years to create a breed for a specific task. The bit bull was built and designed many hundereds of years ago, to fight and kill for its Master.
Now fast forward to today.....Only in the last 10 years has rap music and owning a bit-bull made young males look "thugy" enough so they could impress the girls that think the "felon look" on MTV is the new "in thing"
Funny, how a fighting dog has turned into a fashion statement.
Just like carrying a gun to look cool, .....walking around with a pit-bull is always one split second away from a law-suit or going to jail for a long time if your pit-bull snaps and hurts or kills a child (or your gun goes off) odds are slim but it happens a few times every year without fail.
You could also argue that people get killed street racing... I personaly know two guys that have died on the track in race accidents.... So it is all a matter of how much risk you want in your life. Guns, Fast cars, and Pit-Bulls...can, and do kill or hurt people. If you have all three, your risk are higher.
I guess we learned this in med-school, when we had to learn comparative anatomy of all anaimals, take a look at the design of a pit bull from the inside....they are built to kill. If you don't belive this, its kind of like looking at the blue-prints for a Abrams Main Battle Tank and finding that it wasn't built for war.
