There are over 3 million pit bulls in the country right now. Your odds of being killed by a pit bull are significantly lower than dying of many illnesses, dying in a car accident, etc

Once again you admit, people do die from pitbull attacks and by your logic, you are much more likely to be killed by a pitbull compared to being killed by their pugs, golden retrievers, yorkies, Chihuahuas, greyhounds, poms, corgis , bassethounds, etc. Pitbulls are not an illness, the only illness is in the brains of anyone who thinks they are getting a kind and gentle pet.

Your logic crosses all kinds of barriers including a strawman argument ,apples to oranges comparison and circular logic

They love to put out that Dobes and Shepherds are just as likely, etc. or had “bad rap” in past.

But there’s a huge problem with that theory.

PBT (which is a TYPE, not a single breed)/bullies (ha ha) even combined are NOT NEARLY as popular as German Shepherds have been for almost a full century. Yet as a group, the PBT/bully types have accounted for about 2/3 of the killings the last few decades. Though they’re more popular now (due to do-gooders OT1H and no-good thugs OTOH), they’re still not as populous as GSDs and their mutt mixes. Ipso facto, the PBT type is MUCH more dangerous than the GS breed.

(Wow, this is sort of like saying 1/10 the pop accounts for 50% or more of the crime, hhhmmmm.)
