I love this arguement...So polarizing. Lets look at the facts and let them speak for themselves. Pitbulls were originally raised as working dogs for use in killing or subduing prey for human consumption. These targets include anything which shows its back to the sun and would taste good between two slices of bread. These targets are large and do not want to die and thus the dog bust be equal to the task. Example of this...When put against a Wild Boar the Pit Bull has a 30% chance of making it home in one piece. Better bring the bad ass and breed it... You get the idea. Your trusty Lab or Shepard is completely useless for this task. Humans bred this dog into existance for that purpose. It was never intended to be a pet, rather a tool. A killing weapon. Basically it is a shotgun on four legs. Is it any wonder they do what they were bred to do? Attack, Lock on, do not let go. If it does not do this as the hunting appliance it was intended for it does not come home alive, period. Have I owned a Pit? Yup. Dumbest, most stubborn, most loving, most protective living thing ever birthed. I'll never have another though. Too much poor/questionable breeding. A shotgun with a hair trigger.
One of the best arguments so far! A Pit, or Rott, or any dog for that matter has been bred as a "tool" will always have the potential to cause severe damage and even cause death. I've owned 3 Rottweilers over the years. My brother recently brought a Rottie into his household and I asked him if he was willing to shoot/kill it should it attack a family member. He was dumfounded to say the least and had no clue as to where I was leading him with the question. It's as simple as this: A Pit Bull has the potential, and tools to kill. However, unlike a gun or a car, the Pit Bull comes with it's own mind, will, personality, perception, etc., and will decide on its own, or through manipulation, if it's going to use it's tools on someone or something. And no matter how loving, loyal, blah blah blah it is, it still holds the potential to kill, just like a revolver in Russian Roulette. Owning a dog of this nature is like pulling the trigger... you really don't know what's in the chamber. I'm all for owning whatever it is that you want, but you better be willing to own up to the consequences, should they arise.

Everyone has valid points on both sides but at the same time your taking just as much risk driving your mustang 100 mph . Life is full of risks everyone will choose their own.

curiosity had me google this subject, found this insteresting. Most say pitbull owners are to blame, but the numbers dont add up. these are copy and pasted off dogbites.org. dont shoot the messenger...
Report: U.S. Dog Bite Fatalities January 2006
to December 2008
A 2009 report issued by DogsBite.org shows that 19 dog breeds contributed to 88 deaths in a recent 3-year period. Pit bulls accounted for 59% followed by rottweilers with 14%.
Of the 88 fatal dog attacks recorded by DogsBite.org, pit bull type dogs were responsible for 59% (52). This is equivalent to a pit bull killing a U.S. citizen every 21 days during this 3-year period.
The data also shows that pit bulls commit the vast majority of off-property attacks that result in death. Only 18% (16) of the attacks occurred off owner property, yet pit bulls were responsible for 81% (13).
Many U.S. courts have declared pit bulls as "lethal weapons." Police officers have the right to shoot and kill pit bulls when under threat or when protecting citizens. Examples of police officers shooting dangerous pit bulls are so common that DogsBite.org began tracking these instances in 2008. In a recent 11-year report released by the New York Police Department, the data showed that when dangerous dogs are shot 72% were pit bulls followed by rottweilers with 10%.7
The inability for the average person, much less a child or senior citizen, to stop an attacking pit bull may be the single most powerful reason why pit bulls must be regulated. A 2009 incident shows that Chicago police officers were forced to shoot an aggressive pit bull 10 times to stop the dog's assault. Prior to being shot to death, the dog attacked a pregnant woman, hospitalizing her.8 This incident clearly illustrates the undeniable public safety threat that pit bulls present.

Here is the difference between a car and a dog. My car will only do what I make it do,it won't escape from my garage and run someone down. The dog on the other hand has his own mind,yeah you might have your dog under control when you are present but who controls your dog when he runs out and you are not around...
Its real simple, everyone has biased opinions. From the couple who was hit by a drunk teen driving a mustang, who know thinks every mustang owner is a threat on the road. To the old lady who was mugged by some minority teens,who freaks out when she sees minority teens. Dogs are the same situation. We frequently see in the news how pitbulls are involved in attacks,your brain sets off your spider senses when you see a pit if you are not use to being around them.

Some great points here
I learned something this weekend, thought people reading this thread might find interesting: 95% of dog attacks are un-neutered males, while the other 5% are comprised of neutered males, and both spayed/unaltered females.
Seems fairly straight-forward to me - if you are gonna take the responsibility/liability of owning a 'dangerous' breed, why not just lower your risk SIGNIFICANTLY by having the dog neutered?
Any pit bull owners willing to answer this?
