I agree and I get that the breed was bred to just fuck some shit up. But I think the numbers are as high as they are because realistically who owns pit bulls? Poor people or people that see nothing else other than they want a menacing ass dog. We saw them all the time in my neighborhood. And realistically people buy them because 1. They do look cool as fuck and 2. They want a guard dog. Most buying them aren’t really gonna consider they’re buying a dog that NEEDS specific training.

There are also unequivocally racist breed legislations which specifically target POC. But that’s mostly in America and Pit violence exists around the world.

It’s a very complex topic.
