"I haven’t seen any stories about maurading Beagles or Yorkies killing kids, for example"

More relevant to this argument, I've never heard of this with Labs or Golden Retrievers, both of which are large enough to really do damage. I do agree with you, this breed (Pit Bulls) were bred to fight and kill. I have seen a few that were loving pussycats however.

I did run across a show that followed the rehabilitation of many of the dogs from the Michael Vick dog fighting debacle. These dogs who were “bred to fight” were retrained and became very different animals. Would I rush out and adopt one to be around my grandkids, no. But the change in the dogs was remarkable when given proper socialization.
