Who ever wrote this crap did not review the factual numbers that document that clearly demonstrate that the majority of dog attack on humans that either cause death or cause great damage are by pit bulls. The center for disease control has these numbers and they are easily found.

Not all pit bulls kill people but the majority of people killed by dogs in this country are killed by pit bulls.

Not in Canada...any idea why that might be...?

And they have clarified the problems with the stats on p. 3 of their document: lack of proven objectivity in identifying a dog’s breed - to the point, the public has been “trained” to believe that certain breeds are more aggressive, therefore the dog that bit Uncle Charley was surely a pit bull type; lack of media objectivity (so hard to imagine that conservatives would swallow the bilge pumped out by the media day and night, but I suspect more than one “conservative” on this board has liberal tendencies on this issue); lack of discernible way to accurately assess the breed of dog — you might want to pay particular attention to that one.
