“This has nothing to do with them being pit bulls. There are just as many deadly attacks by collies, golden retrievers and beagles.”
Do you have statistics and links to back that up?
City and county animal control departments in at least 20 U.S. states report that pit bulls are biting more than all other dog breeds. These states include: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, Nevada, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Utah.
The often-quoted myth that pit bulls "do not bite more than other breeds" is categorically false. In addition to the fact that pit bulls are the leading biters, the pit bull bite is also the most damaging, inflicting permanent and disfiguring injury.

Hell, I'd just like a link to a news report of a fatal beagle mauling.
