I'm not an owner I'm but someone with a lot of friends that own pitbulls. Pitbulls aren't some magically special, dangerous breed that is prone to random acts of violence.

Any dog can snap. So why do we see proportionally more news stories about it happening with a pitbull...?

EDIT 2: So. Many. Downvotes. But not a single comment refuting the statistics with facts and evidence... You're not flat-earthers, right? So don't act like them. Use your brain, not your feeeelings! I love dogs. All dogs. And yeah, if my dog was a Pittie, I would be defensive too, but I would also be honest that people need to take extra precautions...

EDIT: You're literally arguing against facts.
