Banning a specific breed based on the bad behavior of a few is not the answer. Once you ban pitbulls, people will demand the next breed on the list be banned since it is now the "most aggressive". After we ban that one, there will be another.

In the previous article, pit bulls and rottweilers are apparently at the top of the list in attacks and deaths in Calgary.
The second paragraph reminds of the gun arguments in the US. "If they try to take my double barrel fully automatic assault weapon mounted on my private tank, then they're going to try to take away ALL the guns!!!"

Just like the gun argument. If you've at least taken away the most dangerous breed then at least the attacks that do happen would at least be less damaging.
Injury versus outright and immediate death regardless of how bad owners can be with their lack of responsibility.
