In south Africa recently they have put up a petition to ban pit bulls as domestic pets, saying that they are dangerous and unpredictable. Though this is not the case I have had pit bulls growing up and they are loving, and loyal . The only reason they'd ever attack someone is if you hurt them , hurt there owners or if you're breaking and entering, or your antagonizing and teasing them . Especially with little children they tease the dogs and it aggravates them . So if people avoid doing those things there's no problem. Educate yourself and your kids instead of trying to get rid of the dogs . You're the problem not the pit bulls .
