"There are 16,651 labs and only 2,520 pit bulls, which means pit bulls in King County are 8 and a half times more likely to bite than labs."
"Cities like Auburn, Buckley, Enumclaw, Everett, SeaTac and Sumas have banned pit bulls all together."

Congrats, that’s not easy to do!

Watch your face, bro.
It’s about to get ate off.
To: Uncle Miltie
Yeah, I’m like you calling BS on this.
A lot of breeds don’t like little children, in my experience. It’s up to the adults to control the situation.
I’ve never met a nasty pit bull except if it was owned by the likes of a Michael Vick.

While being attacked by any dog is at least annoying, I’m more interested in which dog attacks are more likely to result in death, amputations, and permanent disfigurement.

No disagreement from me. However it doesn't help that the majority of the people who want to own pit bulls are the worst owners one can imagine.

It looks like there are 8 1/2 times more bad pit bull owners than bad lab owners...or something.

Blacks are 10% of the population but commit 80% of the crimes.
Ban ‘em.

I’ve met and been attacked by nasty pit bull. And several other breeds. The bigger more powerful dogs are of course more dangerous when they attack. But in my long experience, many of the smaller breeds have been much more likely to attack.
Big powerful dogs need strong knowledgeable owners/trainers. A lot of times this isn’t the case.

In before Its the owners, not the breed.Yay! Now, let's ban guns! Obvious it has nothing to do with the owner. It's most certainly the gun.

Meaning no nastiness or malice toward you, but, please research the history of the breed. One of the most complacent and loving, but, it has an agenda and that is to protect its family unit.
Where do the nasty ones come from. Minority drug dealers, sick dog fighters (ala Vick), and sicko low-life whites.
Otherwise, I’ve never met an aggressive one.
So minorities, and low-life whites, stop abusing your dogs.

I understand that in most cases, they eat children's faces with love and complacency.

Education and Pit Bull ownership.
Now there's an odd pairing.
