The, "It's all about the owner" argument is really silly, for several reasons. First, if the breed attracts miscreants like moths to light, I couldn't care less if responsible, upstanding dog owners would make for peaceful pit bulls. And if wishes were horses, beggars would ride. Second, the physical/anatomical makeup of these animals makes them far more dangerous than all but a few dog breeds when they go haywire. Third, the disposition of the breeds at the top of the fatality list differ from other breeds, thus why they're overwhelmingly chosen for everything from guarding property, to chasing down criminals, to dogfighting. Golden retrievers are abused, too, but good luck getting one to rip off the face of a home invader, do anything but lick the face of a burglar, or fight in a pit.
