All pitbulls banned in Montana?

lol.  Chihuahuas either. 

Hey, do not underestimate the power of the violent Chihuahuas.  With the proper irresponsible owner, I'm sure that a Chihuahua is more than capable of killing a grown man.

Pit bull attacks hospitalize 2 women

By Will Hoover
Advertiser Staff Writer

Two O'ahu men face dangerous-dog charges after their pit bulls attacked two women in separate incidents Tuesday, Honolulu police said yesterday.

 Bryan Cheplic, spokesman for the city's Emergency Medical Services, said both women were hospitalized in serious condition as a result of dog bites.

The attacks came on the same day a measure was introduced in the state Legislature to prohibit ownership of pit bulls in Hawai'i.

The first dog attack happened around 11:45 a.m. near Kapolei High School. But police said the incident began earlier when two 3-year-old blue nose pit bulls tried to attack security guards at the school.

The dogs had been running loose in the area and suddenly rushed the guards, who managed to positioned a golf cart between themselves and the dogs, police said. The guards chased the dogs away.

The pit bulls then attacked a 59-year-old woman in her driveway on Kama'aha Avenue. The woman suffered lacerations to her right leg and left hand. Police said she fought the dogs off by punching them.

The woman was taken to Hawaii Medical Center West in serious condition. The case was turned over to HPD's criminal investigation division, police said.

Kawehi Yim, spokeswoman for the Hawaiian Humane Society, said the owner of the dogs voluntarily turned the pair over to the facility, where they were still being held yesterday.

Later Tuesday, at around 4:15 p.m., a Kalihi woman, said to be in her 60s, was attacked in her Kilohi Street driveway by a 60-pound brown pit bull. The woman was treated for wounds at the scene and taken to The Queen's Medical Center in serious condition, police said.

The dog owner, a neighbor, was issued a dangerous-dog citation. Although the Humane Society responded to the incident, the dog owner elected to keep the pit bull confined at his home, police said.

Although infrequent, pit bull attacks have caused serious and even fatal injuries in Hawai'i. In October 2008, a mixed pit bull killed a baby girl in her Wai'anae home as she slept.

The bill that would prohibit owning a pit bull follows an incident Jan. 14 when a man allegedly turned his 70-pound pit bull loose on a police detective during a confrontation. The officer was bitten on the stomach and shot the dog, which later died.

Pit bull attacks have led a number of Mainland municipalities to ban or restrict ownership of the breed.

However, Humane Society spokeswoman Yim said the agency does not support prohibition of any specific breed of dog.

"It makes no sense for legislation to profile aggression by a breed," she said. "Even the friendliest dog can become aggressive in the wrong situation. For us, it really is a matter of the owner's responsibility."

But isn't the issue that the dogs were dangerous?  They attacked innocent people.  What other breed does that?  I'm starting to think banning the breed might not be such a bad idea afterall.

Apparently you've never seen the video of two rots attacking a guy walking through a parking lot.

"big"Ldawg, I don't know your situation, I wasn't there, but from my experience with go knows how many pits over the years, mine and other peoples, I have never been bitten or seen a pit go after someone.  For people to sit here and blame the breed is no different than me sitting here and blaming blacks for the majority of crime in the US.......and that I will do.....



Can we get a petition going to ban blacks? No more breeding and special liscencing for them to move into certain neighborhoods?  Maybe we can euthanize the little blacks since statistically they are more prone to grow up and commit crimes?

Did I ever blame the breed?....no I said ANIMALS.I am fully aware any breed dog is capable of attacking someone.And that there are precautions you can take to minimise it from happening but nothing you can do will ever guarantee your dog or any dog will not attack someone.that being said....I could care less if every pitbull dropped dead.

I used the word "people"......not specifically you. Settle down "dawg".

And for what it's worth, I have been bitten by a poodle, and my brother was bitten by a cocker spaniel......but I have yet to be bitten by a vicious pitbull.

[LATS]

 FOR THOSE WHO DONT BOTHER TO GE THE FACTS.. NUMEROUS STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT YOU ARE MORE LIKELY TO GET BIT BY A GERMAN SHEPHERD THAN A PIT.. the akc has stated numerous times that they are great family dogs.. in europe the staffordshire is called the ""nanny dog" because of how great it is with children..
   the animal channel had a show on mike vick.. they told of the myths of the pit bull.. breeders of pits to fight have been on record stating that if you can get 1 out of 8 to fight you are lucky.. then why use that breed? because they are the strongest and most athletic dog around.. the show even had various experts on in regards to canines and they all stated that they are great dogs.. no more agressive than any other.. so what is the most aggressive "bite" dog.. the cocker spaniel.. where did the pit rank?  93rd..  get educated..

[liberalismo]

Fucking hell...It's WRONG to "Ban" an entire breed of dogs just because they are more apt to attack people than other breeds.

The REAL CRIMINALS HERE ARE THE PEOPLE BREEDING THESE DOGS AND RAISING THEM, NOT THE DOGS.

Punish the people breeding and raising them for fighting or violence. These gang members and drug dealers!!!

Theres no denying that an attack from a Presa Canera or similar type dog is more lethal than that of a Min Pin. There's no denying that these canines are in the hands of some irresponsible folks.

There have also been the majority of people breeding the aggression out of these dogs and they have done a great job of it, unfortunately there are breeders/owners that have different motives and they are hurting the animal's possible existence. Everything negative associated with these dogs is most often the result of human intervention, so why is it this breeds fault? I don't believe it's fair that we paint with such a broad brush and have responsible owners with well behaved dogs pay the ultimate price through banning.

If theres an aggressive, unattended animal running around, shoot it in the head for all I care, fine owners, there are bi laws that need to be enforced. Public awareness, no different than all the other campaigns that exist(ed) like, wear seatbelts, dont drink and drive, shit like that, so owners  learn to become more responsible,  but just banning a specific breed entirely is retarded.

Dude, judging from the way you post, you probably tried to feed kibble to the dog that bit you by inserting it into it's cornhole and then claimed it just attacked you out of the blue.

I get the feeling "big"Ldawg was fucking with that dog that bit him and is still afraid to come clean to his parents about it.

No, haven't seen the video.  But I have read numerous stories about pit bulls attacking, injuring, and killing innocent people.  It has happened here more than once. 

Regarding your petition, we should include white males too, but only if we're really trying to put a dent in pedophilia, serial killers, and mass murders. 

No, I'm not serious.  Just highlighting how absurd your petition would be.

Yeah I understand that people are most likely the cause of these dogs becoming dangerous, but it's hard to deny what happens when the dogs are mistreated, not properly trained, etc.  Seems like they become killing machines.  Just look at the lady in the story I posted.  She was minding her own business, was attacked by the dog, and wound up in the hospital.

I know dogs get mistreated all the time, but I never hear about Border Collies attacking innocent people.  At least not here.

What about lions?  Can I keep a lion in my house and walk him down my neighborhood, or is that against the law?  I mean, I don't like kittens that much, but I do like lions.  Lions are nice in the hands of a responsible owner/trainer.  I don't think it's fair to ban lions just because they are stronger and potentially more violent than those darn kittens.

And let's get one going to ban white men as well then  - to protect the kids and people since white men are far more prone to be child rapists and serial killers statistically speaking.

In fact, we can ban all men - as regardless of race - you guys are FAR more prone to commit crimes, and especially violent ones. I, as a black woman, am far less likely to kill then any white man if you look at stats.

[SAMSON123]

Nobody needs a fuucking pitbull.

I'll bet 95% of them are in the hands of people who have no business having pets at all, let alone a killer dog breed.

Nice, happy middle class suburbanites do not have these animals.

You are right... those people are the gun totting idiots who have children who often kill the parents
