The family is safe and the owner of the dog doesn't have to spend any more money feeding it. It's a win win.

I don't agree with shooting it.... But it was on your property and you have kids so I can't really fault you without picking saying you didn't have to kill him, rather just let him go away or call animal control.
Do what we do man. Neighbor behind us has a beagle and some type of bulldog looking dog. When those frickers come in the yard and we have people out, we just use mace on them. Mace that arse, and if they come back, then you call animal control or pull the trigger.

As cowards do. Seems like that was an action out of ignorant fear (aka cowardice), considering there are more humane ways of dealing with that issue.

The fact is that pit bull blood lines are genetically predisposed to exhibiting unwanted, dangerous behaviors.
Ultimately any beneficial behavior that a pit can have a genetic predisposition for, other breeds beat them out in those areas without also possessing the predisposition for the same level of dangerous behavior.

Or finding its owner and having them keep it inside, as you should with any other kind of dog.

Try animal control next time.
I could call the sheriff's department who would send some fat deputy out there in a day or three who would simply do the same thing I did. I live in the country in the middle of nowhere. People (cowards) bring dogs out there all the time and drop them off. I've took in my share of these dogs over the years. I'm not taking in a wild mangy arse pit bull that some piece of shite decided to bless me with. And I'm not going to let it hang around my house for the time it takes for some cop to come out there and shoot it. I have things of much greater importance than some dog to consider.

Because most people refuse, or are too stupid, to understand people are just animals. If we were all "advanced" you wouldn't have the violent crime rate we have.

It's a shame that had to happen. I was imagining a suburbs kind of area. I still don't agree it needed to be shot.

Its not the breeds fault that its typical tPOS people that normally own them.
Yeah, and I'm sure a standard poodle or a black lab in the hands of these "tPOS people" would end up being just as dangerous as a pit or a rott.
Give me a fricking break!
There's a reason why you never see labs and goldens used as police/army/guard dogs.

Please name the breeds that can apply similar jaw pressure as pits.
Bite pressure isn't the issue here. Pits are unique in that they can still breath while biting. They also have a very high pain threshold (i.e. it's very difficult to beat them off once they've clamped on).

And this takes away from their inherently aggressive nature how exactly?

Well you're certainly entitled to your opinion. I can't think of anything that dog needed more than a bullet. I don't trust any pitbull. I certainly don't trust mistreated, run down ones that are in the same yard my 3 and 5 year old kids are in.

No. It is like the movie Ender's Game. He eliminated the threat of a future attack. Ender was considered a brilliant tactician. As is our friend here. Dangerous dog gone....precious children safe. I have 4 children, all under age 14 myself and would do the exact same thing if it was walking through my yard. But I would give it a proper burial.

Like you gone get out there with a pit bull that you know nothing about and try to find his owner to tell him the business. FOH

Oh...so you place the responsibility on our friend to go and "make" the owner keep it inside. How is he supposed to make the owner do thar?

Your mistake wasn't downing the pit, it was living in a neighborhood where pits roam free.

I think it's because it gets to the heart of the nature v. nurture debate. That and most everyone loves his or her own dogs and kids, so it's also an emotional one.
that and everyone loves them some broscience.
