LOL where did I ever say there were evil? And where is your objective evidence that any owner that crops ears is a "loser". Care to cite something or provide evidence rather than your standard of making a claim and calling everyone else liars?
As far as evil goes, my claim is that pitbulls are naturally aggressive dogs. You actually supported that multiple times by pointing out that is what they were bred for to begin with, as fighting dogs. Due to breeding, any pitbull, and to a lesser extent, any dog, can become unpredictably aggressive. You ASSUMED I selected that picture BECAUSE of the cropped ears. Actually, I grabbed the first pic I clicked on of a pitbull that was not too large to fit in the forum (the first 2 or 3 were huge pics). ANY pitbull would have fit that particular post, that they look more dangerous than a teacup poodle.
Obviously owners play into it. Sure you see cases where the owner obviously did not control their dogs. But there are plenty of cases out there where you read how well-mannered the dog was and everyone was surprised. Also, if this breed does attract all the loser owner, what better reason to ban it. Either that or require a background check. If it is primarily owners who are going to make the dogs dangerous that buy them, then don't make them available for sale. Pretty strong argument for a ban (which by the way I never said I supported. I said early in the thread that I did not support an all-out ban of the dog, but don't let that get in the way of you misrepresenting and mis-stating facts and opinions.)
The most hilarious thing is your insistence on all or nothing stances. EVERY owner that ever crops ears are nothing but wifebeater-wearing rednecks who fight their dogs every weekend and cropped the ears so they could be a better fighter, and if they claim it is for aesthetics, they are lying. EVERYONE who ever used marijuana had EXACTLY the same experience you did and if they say they didn't they are lying. Basically, everyone with an opinion or actual experience different than yours is a liar. It is a very convenient, if entirely specious, assertion.
That makes it so hard not to just laugh at everything you post. You are obviously very narcissistic, very young or naive, or not very intelligent if you can't see that in life there is actually mostly gray area and not very much that is as black and white as you would have everyone believe. And your insistence on black and white in all arguments shows how desperate you are to win and represents absurdity at its finest.
So you can go on believing your assumption that every pitbull owner that likes a different look in the breed than you do is nothing but a dog-fighting redneck idiot, while the rest of us will go ahead and observe the evidence that some entirely responsible owners might like that look better for any of a hundred reasons.
You know, the more I dig around on the internet to find out why people crop their dogs' ears, it is amazing how many baldface liars there are, and how many owners that talk about the great temperament of their dogs and how their dogs are harmless are really just fighting them on weekends and teaching them to be aggressive while claiming they are "well-mannered". Here are some:

Here is a pitbull that had natural ears that killed a kid. Strange since all aggressive dogs have cropped ears so they can fight. This owner must just not have gotten around to it yet.

Since then, Sullivan has struggled to understand why Ruger snapped. In the three years they owned the dog, she said they had never been a hint of violence from the dog.
"Ruger was never mean to anybody," she said. "I wish I could have been in his head to figure out what happened."
So you have fun railing against all available evidence in your quest to be right despite the evidence and facts.
