Can you provide any sources that show that pitbulls are genetically predisposed to aggression toward humans? Because I presented several that discount that notion.

Once again, my point is that I don’t think that proportion of DNA inherited itself is any direct indicator of inherited traits. I don’t have a source for the claim you mention because I’m not making that claim. In fact, isn’t it in favor of your argument that being a pitbull mix doesn’t automatically equal aggression?

Okay but that was the point I was making to begin with that even the genetic claims are bullshit. What even are you saying here? That all dogs are potentially violent? Because that is not a refutation.

Your whole argument seemed to be trying to refute my post based on that when it in fact reinforces my post.

I’d encourage you to go into the modlog and reread my comment where I said “I don’t think this specific point is meaningful.” It was not meant to address anything but that specific point because I believe it’s not good reasoning regardless of who’s using it for whatever purpose. That is where my “argument” begins and ends. I’m sorry if it was unclear, but I really did try my best to make clear the scope of my critique.
