I believe that pits should not be banned. why should good owners suffer the consequences of bad owners. to actually understand how loving and good a pit can be, you have to own one. I own pits and I trust them more then i trust humans. I just think it all depends on the environment they're raised in. if they're raised in a bad environment they'll do like what any dog or even a human being would do, Protect them selves and try to survive. and if you raise them lovingly and properly, like how other types of dogs like chihuahuas and toy dogs are raised then you'll have the most amazing companion ever. so punish the deed not breed.........screw you terrible owners...
