When I was around 8, a neighborhood kid was swinging around a light pole, just a plain metal pole but it had the wirenut box attached to the side about a foot from the ground, which he was standing on while spinning.
His foot slipped, the corner of this box ripped his ankle open, cut right up from the top of the shoe about 6 inches into his lower calf/ankle.
He screamed and ran home, blood pouring everywhere. Saw him a few days later with massive stitches and bruising all over his leg. Wasn’t as bad as it looked, but fuck me it still makes me wince thinking of my ankle being sliced by a dull metal corner by weight and gravity alone.
But people who actually see people who have been bitten by pit bulls agree they should be banned: https://www.cincinnati.com/story/opinion/contributors/2014/06/29/doctor-says-ban-pit-bulls/11709481/
Yes, but people with trauma tend to look at things emotionally and not rationally. People who were attacked by dogs wanting to ban dogs is as valid as people who were mugged by a black person wanting to bring back race segregation. But the truth is that several studies have shown no correlation between breed and aggressiveness. Not to mention that people misidentify Pitbulls. Also breed specific legislation is not the answer.
