    When pit bulls get banned, owners just switch to some other breed and that one becomes the new highest recorded dog attacks.

    In fact often banning pit bulls makes dog attacks go up, not down.

    Owners that raise dogs to attack others choose pitbulls specifically often.

    Banning pitbulls has never been shown to have any impact on rates of dog attacks anytime it was done.

    The numbers simply just can’t be argued with, it’s been tried multiple times by various cities, it doesn’t fix anything because it has nothing to do with the species and everything to do with the owners.

      Can you cite the sources for your claim that an outright ban shifts the numbers to a different breed?

        No. He cant. Because there is no such study.
