It's no secret that Pitbulls are sensationalized in the media following attacks, as a supporter I am well aware of this, there is no ignoring it.
Pitbulls, like any other animal are capable of attacking. The outcome can't be ignored either, when they attack, it normally results in severe injuries, or death. They are extremely strong dogs. The issue, again, is the owners, not the dogs. Punishing a dog because of it's physical traits, that have made it so desirable for many reasons other than the fighting that is shown on TV in the news, is not just. It is the owners who are responsible to ensure their pet, no matter what breed, can function properly in society, and to be quite honest, it is harder to train a pitbull to attack and fight, than it is not too. It is not an instinct for pitbulls to attack people, or other animals, it is quite the opposite.
