They're animals. All of them will attack you if you piss them off.

If my neighbor's Boston Terrier went off, one kick would launch it halfway down the block.

As other's have said, don't get something larger than what you can physically control if their tiny brains go wonky for any reason.

I do think the best course of action though it to freely give them an arm or leg to latch onto so you have the rest of your extemities to battle for your life lol

...as your bleeding to death on the street, slowly getting weaker by the minute from the blood loss from the ripped vein and shock from the excruciating pain having a crushed arm that the dog is ripping through like butter.

...Then your MMA TV watching skills kick in.

.....ground and pound. GROUND & POUND!!

Actually when dealing with canines I should think greaves would be the most helpful. Followed by leggings, then gauntlets, then perhaps pauldrons. A chest plate is unlikely to help you at all, not a chain shirt.

Much of it the result of someone trolling/mistakenly believing he's invincible vs. a pit. He's going to poke its eye out (until the pit decides to latch onto and remove his finger).

Got 9 more.

Most of Europe has banned Pits. So it'd be hard to go look at theirs. Unless that's what you meant.

Except the countries that haven't? Besides the point I'm getting as is the breed as it is now in America has only been around a few generations. The ones with 30 inch necks and weigh 100+ pounds.

Humans originally were able to wrestle, tame, and submit wolves. So honestly a pit is a lot easier of a fight than a fully grown wolf.

Humans back when wolves were first domesticated probably had a little bit more fight in them back then. The pussification of america has far reaching impacts.

You don't have a spear, sword, armor or your tribe or fire to defend yourself, kid.

This whole discussion is about "mano a mano" combat.

In Gypsy camps it's not unheard of for them to pit a man vs a Mastiff or some other huge dog in a fight to the death. While the men fighting in these situations aren't exactly typical males. They're very far from a skilled MMA type fighter either. A grown man in a mano a mano situation against a dog should be the victor. If a Pit attacked me, I'd obviously get very banged up, maybe even partially crippled for life, but I wouldn't be the one left dead.

Stereotypical trash dogs .

"But they're so sweet!". Yeah, if they're brought up right. The point of the matter is that they attract people that shouldn't own dogs to begin with just because they're "cool" or "manly".

Mountain Lion's are much bigger than 75lbs. A shark?, I'm out of my natural habitat. You don't fuck with monkeys. Badger or wolverine?...get punted for a field goal.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahha. thinking you could take on a badger or wolverine. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
you do realize that wolverines will fight bears, right?

Yea a spear or sword isn't going to leave much wolf left to be tamed and domesticated. So it was clearly done with hands.

Proof requested.

I highly doubt a little 120 lb gypsy guy would cage match a rabid Mastiff to the death with no weapons of any sort. Spartans wouldn't do this either.

If they did that, they'd run out of men to procreate with the women in the village.

All that would be left would be the "black sheep" Woody Allen villager that all the women would be forced to procreate with for the good of the species.

Ya, so? Robbing puppies to domesticate? Big deal.

You have bears and killer whales that have been trained with "hands & brain". It doesn't mean that humans can grapple with a non-domesticated wild thing hand-to-hand.

This whole discussion is about hand-to-hand (no weapons) with a mature wild rabid animal out to kill you. There is no "pussification", as you bluntly put it, to avoid such creatures.

You'd be the village idiot and first ballot Darwin Award winner if you think you could put your pipe and whisky down and grapple with these creatures to the death.

It's highly unlikely the early wolf pets were acquired as adults and were almost certainly picked up as pups. An abandoned wolf pup would not be a significant challenge for even a child to handle so spears would not be required.

Raise them and the selective breed them and 10,000 years later you have a Beagle.

Never hear about people killed by their kitties.
Apparently they are thinking about 'how' to kill you. It is just that humans are a bigger challenge than the kitties thought. So, they are taking their time trying to figure out our weak spots and whatnot.

OOOOKaaay.

Go back, read the thread.

I'll come back and address the points that make you an idiot later.
I am still waiting for the beatdown you were going to issue. I have waited a number of days but...nothing.

So allow me to educate you. My post wasn't and was never intended to be an analogy. It was a post about perspective. You are more likely to win the lottery than be killed by a pitbull. That's a fact, and we all know how people around here scoff at the odds of winning the lottery. Yet certain people in here rant on and on about pitbulls. Ironically, some of them are the very same people who laugh at those spending money on a lottery. Go figure.

If you want an analogy as well as more perspective, OK, here's one - an automobile is far more likely than by a pitbull to kill or seriously injure you. I don't imagine that will stop anyone from driving/riding in vehicles though. I don't see people calling for a ban an automobiles for that reason either.

So can we drop all of the sensationalistic BS about pits once and for all?
