There is one halfway rational use for pit bulls and one only i.e. hog hunting, and that does not go on in or around urban or suburban areas.

Great Danes and Boxers were originally bred to hunt boars. Shall we ban them from urban and suburban areas? What about the mastiffs that were originally bred for bear-baiting or to attack human soldiers?

Should we ban ownership of beagles in those areas because they are bred to hunt rabbits? Pits score better on temperament tests than beagles.

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

The stat I’m not seeing is the percentages of cases in which one or more humans die.
