    Put bulls are not an objective bad for society. They’re not ruthless killing machines. They’re not even more aggressive than other dogs.

      Arguably not more aggressive, but definitely more damaging and lethal.

      Do they do anything that other dogs can’t do? Besides killing people. What’s the benefit of having pit bulls?

      Do you perhaps know what the word “pit” in the name pitbull stands for?

      But they are for more capable of killing/maiming and kill more often than other breeds.

        Any large breed dog is objectively more capable of killing a human. Pit bulls are just 20% of the US dog population and rottweilers are 2%.

          Yet it’s still almost never a Great Dane, Bernese, St Bernard, Mastiff, or a Newfoundland. Pitbulls are 20% of dogs, yet [this study found they make up 53% of dog bite injuries requiring ER treatment.]) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34100808/)

          The fact is, they are disproportionally more likely to case injury or death.
