I know that we are the only ones on this thread, but the whole reason I put this information here in the first place, is that I've seen all the other Pit Bull bashing threads, that make statements such as "only white trash owns pit bulls", "kill all pit bulls" and on and on. Funny how every one jumps on a thread that bashes pit's and talks about them killing someone.
If you wanted a hunting dog, would you choose your lab or would you settle for a German Shepherd? That's ridiculous. Pit Bulls out-pull any breed and currently hold the record for the most weight pulled.
I think you are helping to make a great breed of dogs, owned by more losers and trash, instead of good, caring people that would be able to give them a good home and family.
My first encounter with a Pit Bull was at my friends house, she owned a Pit and Taco Bell dog! When I walked in her door I saw a huge 90lb Pit rushing me. Suddenly, I was knocked to the floor and bathed with a big sloppy wet tongue. I've never seen a dog lick that fast in my entire life! On the other hand, the taco bell dog, bit me a total of 5 times when I was there, and consistently pushed the Pit around.
Moral of my story is that a lot of dogs can be vicious, but all can make loving and wonderful companions if given the right home, and good people, and a freaking chance for goodness sake. ANY DOG! I do not have a favorite, my heart only goes out to those wonderful, beautiful animals who have been tortured and abused. And NO dog has been the VICTIM of abuse more so than the Pit Bull. And that is a fact.

I think I know what you are saying here. The trouble is you are outnumbered by the losers and trash, and it is silly to not admit that they are not contributing more to the gene pool than the good people are. You are outnumbered by a power of 10. So well-meaning as you are, you are acting as if your intentions change the reality. They don't. If you wanted to help individual pit bulls, you could rescue them, spay/neuter them, and advocate against their further breeding.
