Serious question: how is this not just dog-racism?

No, I mean like racism against pit bulls as a dog breed. They're just a different colored and shaped dog, right?

A breed bred to viciously attacked, and withstand pain. If a black man had attacked and savagely bit a little girl, you'd expect him to be arrested, and wouldnt cry racism.

But certainly a lot of that is in the way the dogs are raised. In my experience, they're usually owned by the lowest class of people, who often mistreat them to make them mean on purpose.

Of course not, but if someone said "Another black flipped out and attacked for no reason. But they arent going to kill the nog. I hate this planet." it would seem a tiny bit racist.

Even if thats true, why does it matter? Its a combination of breeding, and socialization. Also, many fatal maulings have been by family pets who were well cared for. If some man had attacked and started biting a child, what would you want to happen to him? Would you say, dont arrest him, he had a hard life?

He'd go to prison (or possibly a psychiatric hospital) after he had a trial, but the focus wouldn't be on his ethnicity.

Perpetuators of this myth also cannot account for the many instances in which pit bull owners and family members are victimized by their pet dogs. From 2005 to 2012, pit bulls killed 151 Americans, about one citizen every 19 days. Of these deaths, 52% involved a family member and a household pit bull.4 Notably, in the first 8 months of 2011, nearly half of those killed by a pit bull was its owner. One victim was an "avid supporter" of Bad Rap, a recipient of Michael Vick's dogs.5

http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Pit-Bull-Owners-Sentenced-in-Fatal-Attack-197056591.htmlJust this LAST MONDAY JUSTICE WAS DONE HERE IN San Diego County
Pit Bull Owner Sentenced in Fatal Attack
The judge described the violent attack in which the dogs chewed through the victim’s skin, fat, tissue, ligaments, muscle and bones
Source: http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Pit-Bull-Owners-Sentenced-in-Fatal-Attack-197056591.html#ixzz2NXKWJTR0
The husband of a San Diego woman whose limbs were nearly torn off in a pit bull attack asked a judge to make sure the dog’s owners suffer too.
Emako Mendoza, 75, was attacked June 18, 2011 when she stepped outside her home to get the newspaper.
Her husband, James Mendoza, spoke through quivering lips as he described his wife’s attack at Monday’s sentencing.
The dogs' owners, Carla Cornelio and her mother Alba Cornelio, were convicted of involuntary manslaughter and death from a mischievous animal.
The Mendoza’s Paradise Hills home shared a side fence with the home where the pit bulls were kept. The dogs entered the yard through a hole in the fence.
James Mendoza recalled the morning when his wife of 55 years was blindsided by her neighbor’s large dogs.
Mendoza said his wife, who was barely 5-foot, had no way of getting away from them. “She had no one to help her,†he said.
Even with his years in the military, Mendoza said he had never seen anything like it.
“She was completely tore up,†he said. “All of her limbs were completely dangling, hanging.â€
Judge Richard Whitney said it was clear to him that one of the dogs was trying to feed herself and was probably in desperation of hunger when she saw Emako Mendoza as a potential food source.
In his sentencing, the judge described the violent attack in which the dogs chewed through the victim’s skin, fat, tissue, ligaments, muscle and bones.
“All along, Ms. Mendoza was alive, screaming for her life,†he said.
“The amount of suffering that woman went through is beyond human comprehension.â€
Emako Mendoza suffered a heart attack and her left arm and leg had to be amputated. While still hospitalized six months later, she died on Christmas Eve.
"She suffered so much, she just finally gave up," James Mendoza said.
“I hope they do some suffering just like my wife did,†Mendoza said of the Cornelios.
Carla Cornelioreceived the maximum sentence of four years in prison. She was also ordered to pay restitution to the Mendoza family. The amount of restitution was not yet determined.
Alba Cornelio was not sentenced Monday because she's suffering a number of medical issues.
The dogs were euthanized by animal service officers, along with their three-week old puppies.

Yea I see this shit on news all the tyme. Daily when I do my 10 mile beach runs I include running up a Bluff and back down 4 time total on different trails- Dogs are common out on walk with owners and I look forward to this because by now I and many of the dogs have become good buds. Some even drop a tennis ball for me to throw. A few still bark at me and this is after over 5 years of doing this daily run.
But I do not reach down on the run to pet a pit bull and I often take another trail on the bluff to avoid the few pit bulls I come across. Only been bitten once and of course it was my fault for reaching towards that dog to fast. I figure the dog has the rite away cept when its a Pit Bull. Jaws that are too powerful for a so called tame animal.

Dog breeds are the result of eugenics. Not acknowledging the differences between breeds would be irrational.
A team of Shih Tzhus has never won the Iditarod.

Yet "pit bull" isn't a breed, it's a collection of different breeds classified by looks. And most people can't tell the difference between them and breeds that look similar.
Pit bull is a nearly useless descriptor.

Its one of a set of dogs bred to be pit fighters. Also, there are many pitbull rescue shelters, when people cant tell a pitbull by their looks.

> The owner of the dog was also present and reportedly yelled at the crowd to leave his dog alone
This is how these kinds of owners are.
They also go around sending propaganda saying pit bulls are nice and misunderstood.

Very true, every time that someone is attacked, they go on reddit, and blame the victim! Also, when I was attacked the owner said that his dog would kiss you to death.

What can you expect from pigs but grunting? A black family owns a pit bull and expects it to babysit an infant. Something goes wrong, and it's somehow the dog's fault.

I especially love those "there are no bad dogs only bad owners" bumper stickers, which of course feature a picture of a pit bull.
