Ban PitBulls
Dog bite severity varies by the breed of dog, and studies have found that pit bull–type dogs have both a high rate of reported bites and a high rate of severe injuries, compared to other non–pit bull–type dogs.
Pit bull–type dogs are extensively used in the United States for dogfighting, a practice that has continued despite being outlawed. Several nations and jurisdictions restrict the ownership of pit bull–type dogs through breed-specific legislation.
The sole goal for this comm is to ban pit bulls from every jurisdiction and to treat the remaining ones with respect while every caretaker follows the required safety precautions to keep everyone safe. Dog breeds with documented health issues should also be prevented from being forcibly bred into this world.
Rules:
-
Keep it civil.
-
No advocating for violence.
-
No pit bull advocate gaslighting. Though good faith debates are allowed.

The community says nothing about culling and does specify that remaining animals can be kept.
Pitbulls are statistically more likely to bite, and they have a more dangerous bite. There is a very good reason to take banning certain dangerous animals seriously. People aren’t allowed bears for pets, there are always limits.
Just because you don’t agree with a wildly accepted movement, doesn’t make it trolling, and you don’t need to make their movement seem worse by lying saying they want to cull them.
