"Pit bulls: villains or victims? exposes crippling ignorance and the roots of sadistic human behavior behind pit bull driven hysteria. The violence, cruelty, and overall bizarre mythical guesswork aimed at these dogs have nothing to foster safety in our communities. In fact, the results have been quite the opposite."--Container.
