What's your point? We can do that with anything. Does this mean we should start banning races?
hmm...cause races are exactly the same thing as dog breeds? interesting take. also interesting that that's what popped into your head, but not relevant to my post. i was actually posting some relevant stats, specifically to the comment(s) about it being somewhat unusual to hear Rottweilers killing people, which i suppose it is, but more prevalent than many might think.
but, yes, i'm all for banning the breeding and buying of pit bulls and Rottweilers.

I thought it was pretty well known Rottweilers were number 2 on the list behind Pits

According to the statistics you posted, Rottweilers were responsible for 45 deaths within a 12 year period. If you find that concerning, and think Rottweilers should be banned because of it, then you will have a long list of other things to be banned that could be held responsible for far greater fatality rates.
ETA: You should stop leaving your house, as that within itself is more dangerous than owning a Rottweiler.

It is relevant because those stats don't take into account who owns and trains the pits or rots. As someone earlier posted it's usually assholes who train them to be assholes. That being said, even as much as I love dogs, a Lab is the only larger dog I would ever own. I prefer terriers. In the sense of protection, I don't need the dog to be a threat, just a distraction or deterrent.
