Not so - banning pit bulls makes as much sense as banning Batman. People don't analyze things deeply - they want easy solutions and readily identifiable culprits. Man kills people at movie - ban the movie. Dog bite kid - ban the dog.
Shallow thinking is useless.
While we are banning things - why don't we just ban people?
Batman is not the topic of this thread. Take that to the Colorado Shooting thread or create an entirely new thread centered about banning Batman.
The topic here is the banning of a breed of dogs, not a fictional character.

Wrong thread, wrong topic.
Umm - I wasn't discussing banning Batman - I was pointing out the stupidity of banning a breed of dog and thinking that it will solve a problem.
But given your ability to selectively ignore what I write - as evidenced in the past in other threads - I am not surprised that my main point went entirely over your head.

I didn't try to derail the thread - I made a point about pit bulls in an indirect manner. You wouldn't be complaining if the Batman reference didn't have something to do with a current event.
Is this better: should we ban cars?
Banning pit bulls sounds just as stupid as banning cars does, in my opinion.
Oh my gosh, the bird and the baby pics..............heck with the money & poision
I see why you used the Batman movie to compare, some are calling to ban the movie like that's the problem. Same with dogs if people would just know their dog or not own a dog the world would get along with dogs much better.
Dogs are not wanted in the ME and now their being sent to the United States.
Great story, the wife didn't want the dog that her son brought home.
I only found this story on 2 links, msn and Huffington Post. The Post has a video.
