There was a report on a local radio station last week that a pit bull in our area was killed by a deputy sheriff after the officer went to investigate complaints by neighbors.

Law enforcement did its jpob. Many of these attacks occur in situations where the neighbors knew their neighbor was not acting responsibly and law enforcement/animal control did nothing about it when notified.

They are dangerous animals to own

Can you cite any scientific evidence that pit bulls are more dangerous than other breeds of dog?

I haven’t made a scientific study. I own a cairn terrier. Given enough time, he might be able to chew a hole in your sock. Likely, however, he would fall asleep before he accomplishes it.

So I would say that, yes, at least as between two breeds, pit bull vs. cairn terrier, the pit bull is more dangerous. Happy to have others weight in on comparisons to other breeds.
