Again, 7 times more likely to be involved in a fatal attack....the breed should be discontinued for public safety. 
The same could be said for half the people on the OT.

You're really overreacting now.


Seven times more likely to be involved in a fatal attack than all other breeds.


Seven times

Dog Bite Statistics 

Approximately 4.5 million dog bites occur each yearDogs that bite the most: 
Chihuahua 
Bulldog 
Pit Bull 
German Shepherd 
Australian Shepherd 
Lhasa 
ApsoJack 
Russell Terrier 
Cocker Spaniel 
Bull Terrier 
Pekingese 
Papillion 

In 2016, there were an estimated 78 million dogs in the U.S.80% of dog bites cause no injury at all or only minor injuries that do not require medial attention 

Dog bites sustained by children have been decreasing in the past decade30+ breeds of dogs and mixes are incorrectly identified as “pit bulls”* in dog bite incidents, attributing the pit bull with an unfair and overstated number of incidents (*pit bull is not technically a dog breed; breeds that are commonly referred to as pit bulls in the U.S. are American Staffordshire Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and American Bully)You have a 1 in 112,400 chance of dying from a dog bite or strike 

You are at more risk of dying from:Cataclysmic storm: 1 in 66,335 
Contact with hornets, wasps and bees: 1 in 63,225 
Air and space transport incidents: 1 in 9,821 
Firearm discharge: 1 in 6,905 
Choking from inhalation and ingestion of food: 1 in 3,461 
Heart disease and cancer: 1 in 7 

Most dog bites involve dogs who are not spayed or neutered 

Fatal Dog Attacks states that 25% of fatal attacks were inflicted by chained dogs of many different breeds

What Breeds Have the Strongest Bite?

Below are the top 10 dogs with the strongest bite in terms of PSI (pound per square inch or pound-force per square inch), as reported by PetComments.com. This list is not indicative of any specific animal and should only be viewed as a scientific study.

We certainly recognize that there are many well behaved and sweet dogs of these breeds, especially when paired with responsible owners.

Kangal: 743 PSI
Doberman: 600 PSI
English Mastiff: 556 PSI
Rottweiler: 328 PSI
African Wild Dog: 317 PSI
American Bull Dog: 305 PSI
German Shepherd: 238 PSI
American Pitbull: 235 PSI
Dutch Shepherd: 224 PSI
Malinois: 195 PSI

Now your statement is what I would define as Horse shite.

No one but you knows anything and all the reputable dog trainers of the world are just "covering their arse."

You are just being a douche bag now. I only pointed out it was the first response to show that it isn't some fringe concept. There are hundreds of responses saying the same thing. You are right, we shouldn't use the vast internet to back up our positions. It's all BS (oh I am sorry Horse shite) because you know best. I believe that you believe you are right but your opinion is at odds with plenty of reputable authorities on the subject. But you keep flinging poo and stomping your foot to try to prove your point.

I noticed there weren't any statistics there on killings or maimings.

Look, I get that you like your dog, but what you're doing is the same as taking the position that the earth is flat because Kyrie Irving said so, despite overwhelming evidence of the facts of the matter.

I'd like to see some standard deviation on the attacks/kllings/maimings to establish significance. A breed committing over 75% of the killings but only being 6% of the dog population is crazy.

I already addressed that.

I said they bite more but it's not heard about bc it's usually little scratches.

There isn't a mountain of evidence because there is no way to accurately tell what the dog breed is without testing.
Which one of these is a "pit"?

I saw that site. It refutes nothing that I've said already and doesn't provide any stats on dog bite fatalities by breed.

Pit Bull Stats

57 dog attack deaths & 645 disfigurements in 2017, led by pit bulls

1. American Pit Bull Terrier These dogs repeatedly make headlines for attacking people. Their aggressive temperament matched with their strength historically saw them bred as fighting dogs. While dog fights are illegal, many of the dogs still exhibit the traits of fighters. These dogs were also used for baiting both bulls and bears so their genetic makeup is rather fierce. Pit bulls have been known to attack children, the elderly, their owners – anyone that happens to be in their path. If the dog feels provoked or startled, it has been known to bite. Many owners swear that their pet would never attack them; however, this breed has led to more human fatalities than any other. The sheer volume of Pit Bull attacks have prompted many insurers to deny coverage associated with homeowners insurance. Many owners have to seek a special policy for coverage liability protection where their pet is concerned. Of course, some don’t bother to tell their insurer about their new pet and this could lead to problems, especially if the dog does bite or injure someone.

Topping the list of deaths by dog in a twenty year period is the Pit Bull and Pit Bull mix at 66 human deaths.

They bite more because the population of Chihuahuas are much higher than pit bulls
