Ok,maybe the owners of the staffs in my town are all morons,that is for sure but it doesnt change my opinion that these dogs have an inbred instinct for agression toward other dogs.they were bred to fight in the pits and while that can be controlled by responsible owners most of the time there will always be an element of doubt in my mind that one will turn on my dog,or god forbid,on one of my children.I will always try to avoid close contact with one whether this is taking my kids from the park or crossing the street whenever i see one not entirely under its owners control.
