Well I'll just start with a top search result when looking for their history..
https://pitbulls.org/article/brief-history-american-pit-bull-terrier
I have owned and read about these dogs for decades, I don't have nor am I going to go find all of the sources I've read over that time. I can tell you that you are incorrect in your assumption about the breed, as are virtually every other person who hates these dogs.
People like you are historically not worth talking to, you will deny any sources or information that I provide because you have already made your mind up about the breed.
I'll leave you with this: this breed was created by humans, is in a constant state of misery because of humans, and is persecuted by humans because of human behavior.
These dogs are not at fault. But ignorance is rife with folks like yourself. I hope you actually put effort into learning their history but I know you won't.
So no sources, nothing, what a pointless discussion.
I did and then encouraged you to use the same search terms I did to find it. It's OK though you had no intention of legitimately engaging in this, I know. Later fucko.
I read your 'source', and pitbulls.org is not an unbiased source (wtf how can you think that even). Wikipedia is. Wikipedia supports my claims, end of discussion.
Goddamn you need to go back to school maybe learn about credible source materials.
Man it wouldn't matter what I provided, you're gonna bitch about it anyways. People using "uMmM sOuRcE?!" Online today are just grasping at straws trying to be on the offense desperate to look intelligent.
"My source supported my claims therefore I am right and you are wrong" is such a dipshit move, you're a bitch dude. Kindly fuck off.
You really don't grasp the concept of unbiased sources?
If you would read what I sent you, you would realize what my point is. It isn't some hype article about the cutest bestest dog breed that does no harm. It is a truthful background on the breed.
But no, you see the name of the website and cry about how bias it is. You're a jackass. I'm not responding to you anymore, go live your life.
