People just don't get it. With a pit bull, it doesn't matter how they were brought up, trained, loved, cared for, coddled. They can and do lose it anyway, causing severe damage or even death. I know this for certain because I have seen it first hand, it completely changes your perspective. When a pit bull that has been loved all of its life attacks its owner and has to be shot to death, you start to realize that the breed has the potential to go off the rails for no apparent reason.
Now with many other breeds, it doesn't matter so much, with a pit bull it easily has the ability to kill you. I firmly believe a person should never own a pet that has the ability to kill you, but if you do own such an animal, at least make it one that doesn't have a history of losing its mind and reverting to some sort of instinctual rage.
