    Well your article isn’t a study, it’s a literary review from a very biased source of a Colleen Lynn

    In fact if you want to read up on your source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogsbite.org

    You can see that she complains about science and ignores expert opinions in the field because they disagree with her.

    It’s very telling when her literary review comes to very different conclusions than actual scientists performing studies in the field.

      The site’s founder is also contemptuous of people in the relevant sciences, including those at the AVMA, the CDC, the Animal Behavior Society, etc. She refers to them as ‘science whores,’ which alone is enough to discredit her claims.

      Science whores? And people take her seriously?

        Not really, most people see her and her garbage site as what it is; unscientific propaganda. The only people who fall for it are the clowns at r/banpitbull and the like.

        No actual experts buy in to breed specific legislation, and there are strong links between pro-BSL groups and racism.
