- Pit bull bans should be abolished.
Evidence -Concrete Detail:
- The problems that occur seemingly due to the breed are actually caused by the owners, not the dogs themselves.
- Commentary 1: Pit bulls are not born killers, they are turned that way as a result of a bad upbringing or traumatic experience. Most of the dogs that attack people have been the victims of abuse or neglect or have taught to fight or kill.
- Commentary 2: There are thousands upon thousands of pit bulls around the world that have never attacked anyone. All of the dogs are not vicious just because some of them have attacked people before. Besides, how many times do ban supporters mention the pit bulls that have saved their owners from certain death? Or do they ever specify whether or not the dog was provoked by the person they attacked? Hardly ever.
- The breed "pit bull" is probably one of the most misused terms ever.
- Commentary 1: Most people group any dog with certain characteristics, such as a stocky build, as a pit bull. a majority of the time, it is one of the many other breeds that are incorrectly labeled as a pit bull.
- Commentary 2: The pit bull gets blamed for the actions of dozens of many other breeds due to their misidentification. This would multiply the attack number for the breed by huge amounts and would account for why the numbers are so high and why the breed has such a bad reputation.
Opposing Claims/They Say:
- The Dog Bite Law Center argues that "these dogs are bred killers."
- Some claim that they "have not place in a family home" and that any "defense of them is misplaced affection."
- However, I say that the majority of pit bulls are being unrightfully punished for the mistakes and actions of the few. Most of the "pit bulls" aren't actually pit bulls at all. If you are counting the number of attacks for many different breeds all under one breed, of course the number is going to be higher than any one single breed.
My Paragraph
Pit bull bans should be abolished. The problems that occur seemingly due to the breed are actually caused by the owners, not the dogs themselves. Pit bulls are not born killers, they are turned that way as a result of a bad upbringing or traumatic experience. Most of the dogs that attack people have been the victims of abuse or neglect or have taught to fight or kill. There are thousands upon thousands of pit bulls around the world that have never attacked anyone. All of the dogs are not vicious just because some of them have attacked people before. Besides, how many times do ban supporters mention the pit bulls that have saved their owners from certain death? Or do they ever specify whether or not the dog was provoked by the person they attacked? Hardly ever. The breed "pit bull" is probably one of the most misused terms ever. Most people group any dog with certain characteristics, such as a stocky build, as a pit bull. a majority of the time, it is one of the many other breeds that are incorrectly labeled as a pit bull. The pit bull gets blamed for the actions of dozens of many other breeds due to their misidentification. This would multiply the attack number for the breed by huge amounts and would account for why the numbers are so high and why the breed has such a bad reputation. However, not everybody believes as I do. The people at the Dog Bite Law Center argue that "these dogs are bred killers." Some claim that they "have not place in a family home" and that any "defense of them is misplaced affection." Nevertheless, I say that the majority of pit bulls are being unrightfully punished for the mistakes and actions of the few. Most of the "pit bulls" aren't actually pit bulls at all. If you are counting the number of attacks for many different breeds all under one breed, of course the number is going to be higher than any one single breed. Thus, pit bulls should not be banned and they should get the same treatment that any other dog breed does.My Thinking:
