Same with people, some are wired differently than others. Some differences are genetics, some is environment, some are truly unique situations that have no real explanation. Only thing we can go by are the numbers. Pits have attacked far more people than any other dog, and far more of those attacks have resulted in deaths. Any owners should be able to accept this as fact and care for their animal properly or accept whatever consequences there are for not properly attending to their responsibility.
#1. Pit bull
Attacks doing bodily harm: 3,397
Deaths: 295
Pit bulls are a dog type that encompasses several breeds such as the American Staffordshire Terrier and Bull Terrier. These dominant and powerful dogs, made headlines a staggering 3,397 times with harmful attacks resulting in 295 deaths over the 32 year period of the study.
#2. Rottweiler
Attacks doing bodily harm: 535
Deaths: 85
The Rottweiler is very territorial and can exhibit jealous behavior in its mission to protect its owner. Rotties are also so active that they can be bored and annoyed easily. Between 1982 to 2014, 535 harmful attacks were reported involving this breed and 85 attacks resulted in death.

You left out a very important statistic... Pitt bulls are the breed of choice when it comes to Service Animals... at least here.
I have always had a no pet policy but half the tenants have Pitt bulls under the service animal exception and getting a Doctor's Note is as easy as asking...
At one time I have had my Insurance Company audit rentals looking for prohibited breeds... since then there has been an explosion of the Pitt population here in the Oakland/East Bay...
