    unreasonable hatred of an animal that’s popular among POC.

    ???

    Nobody was talking about POC, lmao, are you trying to accuse pitbull awareness of being racism? Never read a story about a POC viciously attacking a loving family member out of nowhere for no apparent reason. Human beings don’t do that. But pitbulls do.

    I personally knew an older woman in the neighborhood who was the sweetest person in the world, lived by herself with her dog after her husband died, and her pitbull hospitalized her with a completely unprovoked random attack while she was walking it on my block. And I witnessed that ‘windshield incident’ myself, different animal, there is no other breed that is so aggressive/tenacious that it’ll start headbutting a windshield to get at a squirrel running around in front of the car, much less keep doing it even after it’s gotten its face all cut up from the windshield cracking. That is insane behavior.

    There’s nothing unreasonable about not wanting those living ticking time bombs around. Again, you will NEVER find an image of golden labs eating littermates down to the head. Denying the existence of breed-specific traits is just delusional.
