It does absolutely account for it. You just mussed the point.

Yes, we are serious.

Sorry ladies but as a scientist and someone who has worked in dog rescue for years, I must point out that the "facts" you point to require context. I understand how attack survivors of a pitfall attack can find such statistics particularly salient. Ultimately however, much like this article, such media coverage is…

This! Humans are the mitigating factor here, not the dog. If the dog is raised by responsible, loving people then the chances of it being a loving animal are significant. Even IF they were brought up by non-loving means, that still doesn't make the animal any less capable of being a "good dog." Case in point: Some of…

I had the bottom of my face ripped off by a doberman pincer when I was two years old. The cruelty of people has been with me since I could remember. I know what this little girl is going to have to deal with for the rest of her life and it is awful. The last thing she or her family needs is being told to get out of…

Mostly I think people might be annoyed because you've turned an article about a little girl being bullied by authority into a soap box for your pet cause. Pun, sadly, intended.

It's really sort of a mirror to, say, guns.

This story is about something sad and ableist that happened to a little girl. I don't think it's appropriate to make this about pro vs. anti-pitbull people (I mean do whatever you want, but it's kind of a sad reaction to the story. It just ends in fighting in the comments). Besides, you will never change each…

Will you be working on banning cars as well, then? A lot more irresponsible owners of those.

I'm really sick of the pro-fitness crowd. There is a difference between being attacked by 3 out of shape people and being attacked by 3 bodybuilders. There just is.

You are right. All animals over 6 pounds should be banned.

So could any big dog. WTF is your point?

I liked How It Should Have Ended better.

The only explanation for Jason Biggs.....

Yo, I'mma let you finish, but the best version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow is still IZ's:

You need to stop telling people things like "This will shatter your heart" "you will cry" "You will weep" etc because most of the time this stuff is just dull and barely article worthy, let alone able to make folk cry.

Please. That story is just the first day of Kindergarten. I've worked as a nursing home nurse for 30 years. My brain is rotting from the inside out with stories.

or how about when i tried to be a responsible 19 year old and asked my general practicioner for STD tests before my bf and i had sex. the doctor told me "they didn't do those kind of tests" and i should " go to a free clinic or something"

the time my gynocologist tried to set me up with her son. MID-EXAM

What the hell? Nobody is berating any man for being a supportive spouse. It's a jokey article with a minor point about a strange new phrase being kicked around.
