"Is there anyone here who would let their 6 year old child play, unsupervised, with a random pit bull? How about a random chihuahua?" Neither - they shouldn't be unsupervised with "random" dogs.
That's why I presented a hypothetical question. It's like answering the trolley problem with "make laws against tying people to railroad tracks". Hypothetically speaking if you had to leave your kid with one or the other, which would you choose? Or would you say "doesn't matter"?

Please stop violating the HN guidelines. I get that you're emotional about the subject and have a religious zeal for it, but that's no excuse for name-calling. There is no evidence that anyone you're replying to is writing in bad faith.

It's not your job to police Hacker News. If I've violated a rule, that's up to the moderators of this site to police, not you. You are a user, same as me. I'd even argue attempting to enforce the rules as a user is a violation of those very same rules. I believe the people I'm talking to right now are supporting racist ideas and policies, and that makes those people, definitionally, racists. Including you! I apply no…

This study/paper is ridiculous. Anecdotal, but I've had lots of dogs growing up. We have five right now. This does not reflect the reality I know. Shiba inu act like cats and prefer to spend time away from their person. They frequently get kicked out of dog parks for not being friendly to other dogs. It's documented and well-studied. They're not at all like other dogs. Corgis are protective, commandeering, and can be…
