The vast majority of all recorded dog attacks are pit bulls. Just choose some other breed. CMV - eviltoast

    I don’t disagree with you but asking to get your view changed in a community whose entire purpose is to have the same view might not be very productive.

    When pit bulls get banned, owners just switch to some other breed and that one becomes the new highest recorded dog attacks.

    In fact often banning pit bulls makes dog attacks go up, not down.

    Owners that raise dogs to attack others choose pitbulls specifically often.

    Banning pitbulls has never been shown to have any impact on rates of dog attacks anytime it was done.

    The numbers simply just can’t be argued with, it’s been tried multiple times by various cities, it doesn’t fix anything because it has nothing to do with the species and everything to do with the owners.
