There are a lot of dog breeds out there that pose same level if not more of a threat than a pit. I have been around pits and never felt a single second of anxiousness. I have been around Chihuahuas that I would not turn my back on for a second. I personally have Boxers and they are just as gentle as can be except I have a friend that my male just does not like for whatever reason. He is the only person this dog reacts to in a uneasy manner with. He has not been aggressive but I think he would given the opportunity.

Yes, but you can kick a chihuahua like a football. You try that with a pit and it’ll eat your leg off.

In 2019 there were 20 direct lightning fatalities, compared with 21 in 2018, according to the National Weather Service. From 2010 to 2019 on average 26 people died each year from lightning strikes in the United States.

That's more than fatal dog bites from all breeds.....it's also more than unarmed African Americans are shot by police......so.....narratives are rarely fact driven.....

So, for the slow of thought, you're more likely to die from a lightening strike than a dog attack or a police [censored] up.....

Was thinking more along the lines of temperament. If the damage they can do is the bar that is set then any of the medium to large build dogs would fall into the same category as the pit.

A Pit killed my Sister's dog in her front yard in front of my niece and nephew. My Dad put 32 grains of lead in it's ear in the middle of the night about a month later.

A Pit jumped on my other Sister and chewed up her arm when she was on a walk in her neighborhood. She was unable to ID the owner and never saw it again.

A Pit showed up at my house and attacked my Black Lab. Fortunately the Pit latched onto my dog's thick heavy collar and got no meat. I was able to beat the Pit off my Lab with a rather large stick that happened to be handy. I got my Lab in the house and took the Pit out with a 100 yard shot with a .308.

Pit Bulls are good for 2 things. Target practice and Buzzard food.
