Dog bite severity varies by the breed of dog, and studies have found that pit bull–type dogs have both a high rate of reported bites and a high rate of severe injuries, compared to other non–pit bull–type dogs.
Pit bull–type dogs are extensively used in the United States for dogfighting, a practice that has continued despite being outlawed. Several nations and jurisdictions restrict the ownership of pit bull–type dogs through breed-specific legislation.

It's fucking wild how many people hate dogs online, I never encounter these insane attitudes in person, but online everyone's out for dog blood for some reason.
Also, without looking, let me guess, Carmel or another wealthy area?
Pitbulls were artificially selected for dogfighting. They're not made for families.
