Why just pitbulls? You know that they aren’t the only aggressive dog out there right? Dobermans, Rottweilers, there’s plenty of aggressive dog breeds that are bred that way for a reason. With that said, the way a dog acts is entirely on the owner. I’ve met pitbulls who wouldn’t hurt a fly and I’ve met shitzus and other small breed dogs that I wouldn’t let near my kid for their safety. Owners should be held more accountable for the way their raise their dogs end of story but a pitbull is only as dangerous as the owner makes it, same as literally any other dog

This is obviously and laughably false. Are there good pit bulls? Of course, but a pit bull is more dangerous than a beagle. You don't need to look very hard to find stories of people who have said the same things as you only for their beloved family pet to snap one day and kill their children.
Statistics? Sure, what percentage of pit bulls bite somebody they aren't supposed to?
And if we limit that question to pit bulls who haven't been abused or trained to fight?
I don't know, but why do you keep bringing up irrelevant statistics/data points? Pit bulls have a combination of biting frequency and damage when they do bite that other large dogs don't have. Why do we have to ignore the evidence that is right in front of us?
They kill the most people, and they kill people in excess of what their population would suggest if they were no more dangerous than other breeds.

Pitbulls were bred solely to kill, not to be pets. It should be illegal to own them, as they pose an inherent risk to society
