>>53314934I've lived in the northeast, Florida, and the mountain west and pitbulls are both pretty common overall and especially common in poor shitty areas. Ghetto poor people seem to have a priority of pitbull > rottweiler > dobermann and the primary reason they like these dogs is because they have reputations for being tough and violent breeds.
It's really fucking insane that a dog breed that needs active discipline and exercise and WILL constantly test your boundaries and control is so intensely favored by a demographic that will absolutely not provide these things, especially because the outcome of a fuckup is their dog attacking someone else's pet or fucking child.
