  • Again, there is no database of dog genetics that police maintain in the US, unless it was created after 2021.

    Meaning all the stats you have are based solely on media reports of dog attacks and not actual dog attacks.

    You can also contact the people compiling the lists. If they respond, they will admit that they do not track the rate of attacks committed by German Shepherds in the line of duty.

    We also know that Cane Corso’s probably attack a few people per year, yet almost every list excludes them… Because they are counted towards pit bulls.

    If you can provide an actual scientifically validated list, I am happy to see it. Otherwise your numbers are fiction and you know it.


  • The world’s first ever police DNA program started in the UK in 2021, and it was created for dog thefts, not dog attacks.

    And seeing that there is no national database of all precinct’s police reports, you will have to go to your police department and see for yourself that they are not even cataloguing the breeds per attack.

    As for your comment that there are 5 dogs that fall under the umbrella term of pit bull, that actually helps my original point that these lists are unscientific. Chihauhas aren’t lumped together with Mexican shorthairs when the numbers are tallied, neither is any dog lumped with their types. These lists also don’t break down which of the pit types are most responsible for the most attacks.

    1. because the numbers aren’t collected by anybody, meaning the lists are lying, and
    2. if the pit types were separated by their actual breed, the numbers would show an average or a slightly higher rate of aggression, not the majority of all attacks.

    I would also point out that almost none of these lists you read online include German Shephards, which is strange since they tend to be the only dog in the US that is commissioned as Police Officer and are frequently attacking people as part of their job. Further evidence that these lists are unscientific and politically motivated.



  • Just a head’s up but not a single police department in the nation DNA tests or even has a spot on their reports to label which specific breed of dog caused the attack, there is also roughly a dozen different breeds on the list of dogs commonly mistaken for pits.

    Anybody telling you pits are responsible for any percentage of dog attacks is lying by giving a number not scientifically achieved.


  • I once had a Republican tell me he was, “black woke, not trans woke.”

    I told him I didn’t know what that meant, and he said, “I don’t hate people for who they are, but people can’t just be whatever they want to be.”

    Cue the Nathan Fielder meme of him just saying, “oh… Okay.”

    People acting more terrified at the loss of tik tok from their lives than they did during covid, while losing people from their lives.

    Tik tok might as well just change their name to empathy box, because they have convinced their users that the act of watching content on empathy box makes them more moral and politically aware than the rest of us.

    At the end of the day, we have to be nervous when a foreign nation has content reach to 80℅ of Americans. This foreign nation is banning Americans from accusing it of genocide while allowing an economic incentive for Americans to accuse themselves and everybody else of doing it.

    Deep down, every one of us knows tik tok is a power nobody can or should be trusted with.
