This conventional wisdom is not entirely accurate.
And some dogs are just jerks, or become nasty when they get older and possibly in pain.
That doesn't make them bad dogs. It makes them bad pets.
Well...the issue is with the breed. There are two reasons:
Pit Bull. No surprise there.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A sheriff’s deputy died after being attacked in her Indianapolis home by a dog that also bit and wounded her 8-year-old son, authorities said Wednesday.
Tamieka White, 46, was pronounced dead at the scene Tuesday night shortly after Indianapolis police officers responded to her home on the city’s east side, officials said. She had been a deputy with the Marion County Sheriff’s Office since 2007.
Her young son was also bitten in the dog attack, which was reported about 7:45 p.m., officials said. He is recovering from non-life-threatening injuries, The Indianapolis Star reported.
Indianapolis police said the attacking dog charged at a responding officer, who fatally shot the animal.
==========================================
And it was someone else's dog. The lawyers are probably lined up at their door.
Sure there is...
We are punishing the animal that just violently killed a woman?
So when fighters go in and fight in the UFC, training to do nothing but hurt people to the point of killing them should they want... we should blame the coaches for what they made them into, should they fight a person in a bar or attack their wife?
Would you blame a tiger that attacked a person but not blame a pit bull for attacking a person?
He does have an extreme aversion to anyone that challenges him.Apparently you know squat about the breed.
Stories featuring the Vicktory dogs rescued from Michael Vick's fighting ring
And I've spent a good part of the last ten years working with these cast off terriers (called it pitbull rehab) at the local shelter Never once bitten or even snarled at. Got a Staffordshire that was tossed out of a car last year, sweetest and most well-behaved companion one could meet. Maybe you're just scared of dogs that might challenge you physically?
Maybe part of your issue is that you think dogs and kids are similar?
LOL. Of course they are. You have a kid and never train it?
You've crossed the line between absurdity and stupidity.
I don't remember this obtuseness about you from before.
I could see you eating the shit if your kid had an accident.
You don't understand that, in this age of non-discrimination, come Hell or high water, any judgement of a dog breed is Racial Discrimination! /sarc/
There seem to be a lot of those. Certainly not all. My observation has been that about half of pit owners are nice normal people trying to raise nice normal dogs. The other half own pits because it is a felony for them to possess firearms. Of course, those are the ones trying to breed them like rabbits.
