I know some will vehemently disagree, but I actually think allowing Pit Bulls for pets is meant to contribute to depopulation. My neighbor has a pit bull and it's sweeter than my husky. That's why whenever there is a tragedy involving pit bulls they aren't dealt with on a government level to ban them. Those they do not kill face a lifetime of medical care, may never find a mate, may never have children. Depopulation.

That being said these are the facts:

Pit Bulls make up 5.8% of America’s dogs.

Pit Bulls account for 65% of American human fatalities by a dog.

Personally I think the breed should be banned. It takes a special person willing to what is correct to own one. If they are allowed, the owners must be interviewed and how and where the dog will live. Their fence strong, escape proof and must be checked for weaknesses. No running free in the neighborhood and no breeding. There should be periodic welfare checks to ensure the well-being of the dog and safety to others.
