I'm not saying put bulls are the most dangerous breed, but when was the last time you heard of a retriever or a lab shooting someone?

I don't want to defend pitbulls, but a chihuahua with a small kalachnikov would be deadly as well.

I can confirm. As a person who had a chihuahua for 11 beautiful years, he yearned for the most violent death of any and all that displeased him, which was anything bigger than him.

I forgot Siamese cats too. If you're the owner, they love you. If you're a stranger, they'll rip your head off.
