Yeah, so you've got nothing. Where's the study? You've had more than enough time to look for one, while claiming you're too busy to look for one.
You made the claim, you substantiate it. That's how it works.

Pit bull defenders continue to try to knock this thread off-track. Lest we forget, here's one account of how the horror went down:

"According to neighbors, the boy's father was at work and rushed home. Police said the boy's father was so distraught that he had to be restrained.

A mother's scream is a sound neighbor Joseph Messam will never forget.

"I heard the mama rolling around out there screaming on the ground and neighbors came and we tried to see what we can do, but I stayed back to look and I saw all the blood on her arms," said Messam.

That's when Messam said he knew something was terribly wrong.

"'The dog killed the baby, the dog killed the baby,' that's what I heard her say," said Messam."

So, you think all the news reports are wrong and it was a cocker spaniel who killed this child, right?

I am genuinely sorry that a dog killed this child.

But that is not the point I am making -which you keep missing. I have to wonder - is this intentional or are you truly unable to understand what I'm saying? Seriously - I don't know.

This is the second time you've twisted what I've said into something that I absolutely did NOT say. So I'm done talking about this with you. I don't like your deceitful tactics.

I do miss your point. What are you saying, as it relates to this tragedy and not your personal affinity for pit bulls who can be warm, snuggly teddy bears who would never attack a two-year-old child?

More than 90% of YOU cannot identify a copperhead snake or a cottonmouth (water moccasin) snake but that doesn't mean that they are not killers - more so than the other breeds.

I am not defending the guy or even saying I agree with the premise, but if you google L-tyrosine and pitbulls, there seems to be a lot of info on it...whether or not it's true is another thing.

But if I call any snake I run across that scares me, a copperhead or a cottonmouth, then at some point you gotta know - I don't know what I'm really talking about.

I don't think L-tyrosine has anything to do with this thread topic. I don't know but am pretty sure the two-year-old's parent's don't give a hang.
