I’m not a fan of breed-specific legislation, but I’m more amenable to breed-selective homeowner insurance[1].
Interestingly most people misunderstand what a “pit bull” is. There are a few very similar breeds:
- American Pit Bull Terrier
- Staffordshire Bull Terrier
- American Staffordshire Terrier
- American Bully
In my experience, most people don’t specify which they mean, so they don’t actually care about the “breed” (the bloodline), but care more about their intuition of a breed based only on visuals.
