The argument that the breed is dangerous by nature is wrong. The pitbulls who attack in these type of stories were bred to be violent. Has anyone on this site ever saw a Westminster dog show where the American Staffordshire Terrier attacked its owner, or another dog - I didn't think so. If we are going to say creatures that are statistically more probable of doing harm by violence should be eliminated we would have to institute genocide against black males in America. They make up less than 10% of the population but commit more than 50% of violent crimes. An argument saying that Black Males are all killers would not be accepted, and neither is an argument that all pitbulls are killers. To think this is a good argument is ignorant and moronic.

Oh, puhleeze. Should I be able to keep a lion or tiger as a pet behind a white picket fence in suburbia? How about a grizzly bear? Yeah, I've got a thing for grizzly bears in my apartment right next to the playground. Are we going to have a public commission that determines whose dog was bred to be viscious and whose wasn't? What's moronic speaks for itself.
