Sure, you can choose not to eat a hot dog, but what about your child? How will they know the danger? It could be Served up at the school cafeteria, Grandma's house, or Six Flags. People and institutions they trust allow them access to hot dogs. What if your toddler finds a piece of hot dog on the ground at the park and stuffs it in his mouth before you can get it away from him? You can't pretend that simply not owning any hot dogs will keep your children safe; do you think that it's any comfort to the parents of hot dog victims, knowing that you're exercising your personal judgement and eschewing hot dogs? No! We must eliminate the problem at the source. A government ban will ensure that no hot dogs exist, therefore removing the danger.
The question is, how does a parent ensure a pit bull never comes near their child?
However they like; Seal them in a locked room and slide food(not hot dogs!) under the door, if that's what they want. A better idea would be to carry their firearm around with them and just remove the dogs as they enter the property.

The kids have to carry the firearm to kill the dog. I think that would solve all the problems. :-)
