When you look at the statistics of all the human fatalities and hospitalizations from dog bites—not the little "nips" and small bites—they are LARGELY from pit bulls.
Over 500 people have been killed by pit bulls since 1980 – more fatalities than all other dog breeds combined.
75% of fatal dog attacks between 2015 and 2017 were perpetrated by pit bulls. Again, more than all other dog breeds combined.
Numbers simply do not lie. I love animals, but these dogs are simply not safe, and they reproduce faster and more than most other breeds, making them not only a public nuisance, but a public hazard and a threat to humans—especially children and elderly people living in urban and suburban areas, where the majority of children and the elderly live.
