    Right, I used the wrong word. Would the right word be “Breedist”? I really don’t think so but it’s all I can think of.

      There is no works for it because it is a concept that doesn’t exist.

      Even you admit selective breeding is a thing. Border collies herd things by instinct. Huskys love snow and pulling things. Golden retrievers love fetch. Pit bulls have an extremely powerful bite. It’s just how those breeds are.

        I agree that a pitbull bite is more dangerous than most other dog bites but that doesn’t mean they are more likely to bite. Pitbulls behavior like every other dog is determined by the training it gets and how much energy it is able to expel. Any dog that is pent up and not properly trained could bite someone. It’s true that a pitbull bite is a lot worse than a Chihuahuas, but if the owner can’t train their dog they shouldn’t even have one no matter the breed.

          I don’t disagree entirely (although I think an attack instinct kicks is a lot faster in pit bulls), but that’s my point. A pit bull bite is simply inherently more lethal. Since we are not going to license and regulate dog owners and monitor their training efforts, the best alternative is not having dangerous breeds.

            Not all pitbulls are work dogs. It’s not even a real breed first of all but the dogs that we consider pitbulls come from all kinds, they have work dogs and dogs that were bred for homes. If any kind of dog should be outlawed, it should be work dogs in general. To single out such a broad kind of dog, like “pitbull” is ignorant.
