I think people who support pitbulls are doing so just because they havnt had one of those timebombs blow up in their face yet, I was over at a friends house who had a pit bull, she raised it from a puppy, treated it well, had people over the house all the time, one of our friends who had been over before and had never been aggressive towards the dog was sitting on the couch, the dog had always been friendly, this time the dog jumped up, tried to start licking his face, he was just sitting there and gently and non threateningly tried to push it down, his face was leaned back away from the dog, but then without warning it leaped up snarled and grabbed his face and started thrashing its head around. It went into a mad attack mode. He was grabbing its head to try and restrain it and my friend and someone else jumped up and she stuck her hand it the dogs mouth and pried its jaws open. The guy was ok we drove him to the ER and he needed stitches and after that I avoid pitbulls like plague.

The guy probably had it coming.
What I don't understand is why the ppl stand around, filming and not helping the guy until he almost lost his life....

You know something ? I will not dispute you story, I will however ask where the dog came from ? Was the bloodline legit ? Or where they the product of a puppy factory ? There is a lot more to your story, there always is.

What % of Owners actually know the history of the bloodline though?

Animals are unpredictable, doesn't matter what it is..... They have attacked people unprovoked too many times to count, but so has pretty much every other breed too... Just most breed's would stop after getting shot once.
