I got a purebred Pitbull aslo, who's extremly friendly. But I have to admit the power these dogs have in its body, mouth and mind is simply amazing. I could see how they could become dangerous because combine that much strength with that much determination and that equals a deadly weapon for sure. With that said , a untrained owner should never own this breed, thats like giving a kid a loaded handgun. Only experienced dog owners with a proper enclosed fence area' should have access to this breed of dog. A Untrained owner using the breeed for idiotic reasons will of course resault in a bad outcome. So punish the deeed not the breed.
