Pit Bull Myth: Being famous holds such people to higher standards and that is why they do not own Pit Bulls or mistreat them. Pit Bull Fact: As seen from the above well known names this is obviously not true. Unfortunately many famous Pit Bulls owners do not advocate enough on the Pit Bull breeds behalf. Even more unfortunately is when people like Michael Vicks own Pits they cause great harm to the breed that takes significant re-education of the public to overcome. Our opinion on Michael Vicks is he deserves the treatment he gave to his Pit Bulls and that society should not hold such cretins in esteem or give them a chance to become heroes in the minds of our children.
