Pitt bulls are a good fit for some people, but for the majority of the population, why bother? There are plenty of dogs out there who are just as much fun, without the fuss.
Look at the kind of people that tend to by 90% of the pitt bulls. They tend to be the dog of choice for bikers, trailer trash, and crack heads. No wonder so many have issues. They require a lot of responsibility because of their physical abilities and fearlessness, but unfortunately, they often seem to get obtained by people who want them more as a status symbol than a companion.
