Tell that to all the parents that had one of their children killed by one of those things too.

Here's a stat for you:

"According to the American Canine Temperament Testing Association, 82.5%of the American Pit Bull Terriers that took the temperament test passed, compared to a 77% passing rate for all breeds on average."

82.5% is the 4th highest passing rating among ALL dog breeds.

That means that Pit Bulls, as a breed, are better tempered than the majority of all other breeds on average.

The problem is, Pit Bulls are an extremely loyal and eager to please breed, and some bad owners know this and use it to train them for the wrong purposes.

Since 1975, dogs belonging to more than 30 breeds have been responsible for fatal attacks on people, including Dachshunds, a Yorkshire Terrier, and a Labrador Retriever.

Since 1998 the breed most responsible for fatal dog attacks has been the Rottweiler, not the Pit Bull.

To sum things up, bad owners make bad dogs.
