You know pit bull is not a Breed right? It is a term that refers to multiple different breeds. One of them Is the American Terrier. American bull type terrier's were actually bred for Cattle Herding. Any dog could have been made into fighting.
If your so pleased if they die off then do you fell the same about Retrievers and Labradors?? They attack more people then pit bulls. What about Dalmatians? There one of the top ten most dangerous dogs.

In the past Bull type terriers Often were called " The nanny dog" as they would be used to babysit children. Bull type terriers were also one of the First breeds used as Therapy dogs.
