I acknowledge that Pit bulls, more than any other breed of dog, have a genetic predisposition for violence, lockjaw being a perfect example. TRAINING AND A GOOD, LOVING ENVIRONMENT, however, are capable of eliminating almost all inherent agression though--my dog is living proof.
Pit Bulls get a bad rap because they are the breed of choice for the assholes that raise animals to fight. Not all Pit Bulls are evil.
