That's the first impression I got when I read the "pit bulls ain't even real dogs" part."<br /><br />Doubtful, since 90% of Joe Q. Public does not understand the whole "pit bull" as a slang term for various breeds thing. I doubt that's what he meant, because if so he probably would know that it would be lost on most of the audience.<br /><br />I'm 99.9% sure his intent was to imply that like another poster said, that they are "less than" other dogs.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01587068543096760911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-10713205280480580912009-10-26T12:44:23.740-07:002009-10-26T12:44:23.740-07:00That's so great.

Dogs have been used against people throughout human history -- look to Berlin's WWII use of german shepherds and rotties and more recently dogs used to torture in Guantanamo by US soldiers. Yes, it was a silly comment and yes, we're glad Mrs. Pryor plugged her nose in a public way. I don't care who's getting tortured, black men, jews, middle eastern people or the dogs themselves -- It's just not a good fodder for late night giggles.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05881171300084907158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009181.post-59076619604365172112009-10-24T07:26:04.645-07:002009-10-24T07:26:04.645-07:00I have seen Mrs. Pryor on the Dog Whisperer show a...I have seen Mrs. Pryor on the Dog Whisperer show and I thought that she was awesome in what she did for the dogs.

It was a silly comment, not something you should try to read into. And while I can appreciate that pit bulls get a bad rap as to their suitability as pets because people have abused them, that's not the issue here.<br /><br />And no, I don't think Chris was saying that black men should torture dogs... just that they might not love dogs so much since during slavery and the civil rights battles dogs were used as instruments of torture.<br /><br />If you have any more questions, ask him.
