This is heartbreaking. But isn't there stats out there about dog attacks from other breeds just increase when pitbulls are banned?

Every data point I've seen shows a link between dangerous dog breeds and bite frequency. The fact that irresponsible owners are still allowed to got out and get a rottweiler or a German Shepard when Bit Bulls are banned, doesn't make Pit Bulls any less dangerous. The answer here is clearly further regulations, and regulation aimed at ownership.
My thinking has always been that all dogs can go nuts and bite someone. Not all dogs are engineered specifically for the purpose of killing other animals in fights. If you live in the city, why do you need a dog like that when other dog breeds are available, many specifically for the purpose of solely being companions to humans.
I was renting my basement suite out, and it's amazing how many people think I'm going to let their pit bull(s) share my backyard with my one year old child. Even one claiming it was some kind of human rights violation not to rent them the space.
