Yet another story about this harmless, misunderstood breed. lol
Ends with a quote from the father...........
"the family was aware of the publicity surrounding the breed, including the proposed anti-pit bull law, but his uncle had an American Staffordshire terrier "and it never bothered anybody. We thought all the warnings about them being ticking time bombs was exaggeration."
The dog was an angel," he said. "But they can't be trusted ... I realize that now."

PS: that sound you hear is the collective 'blah, blah, blah' from the usual suspects telling us it's the owners' fault..........breed specific bans don't work........and with training and licensing (yawn) Pit Bulls actually make wonderful pets.
