Yes but pit bulls do it far more than others. That’s the point.
“Although fatal attacks on humans appear to be a breed-specific problem (pit bull-type dogs and Rottweillers)
other breeds may bite and cause fatalities at higher rates.”

That is not to say you are wrong, but it may be an effect of the size of the population. The denominator in the equation.
Where I come from most attacks are from Husky/Sled dog types/breeds.
There are many more of them than there are ‘pit bull’ type/breed dogs.
Regardless, strategies, including effective by-laws, rigorous enforcement and an emphasis on education
are appropriate measures that will lessen dog bites/attacks by all types of dogs.
Obviously, larger dogs can potentially do more damage
but even small dogs can cause disfigurement and on occasion fatalities.
I favor an approach that targets all dogs and all owners.
The principles of responsible dog ownership are not breed/type specific,
although their application can be tailor to specific types of dogs.
For example, containing your dog is important regardless of breed/type,
but the fence surrounding your yard must take in account
the ability of your specific dog to jump it.
Freedom of the individual is a cornerstone of our Western Culture
but it must be matched with a keen awareness of the personal responsibility it entails.
