    I don’t disagree with you but asking to get your view changed in a community whose entire purpose is to have the same view might not be very productive.

      It works fine. The vast majority of people who will see the post are not community members.

    Agreed, it’s not surprising a dog breed raised for dog fighting is dangerous.

      Can you cite the sources for your claim that an outright ban shifts the numbers to a different breed?

        The other breeds are still much safer. I trust a rottweiler more than a pit bull, their rate of bites is much lower.

        You seem to be implying bans would be futile if the intention is to reduce attacks because other breeds will simply start attacking more. Am I misunderstanding your assumptions? That sounds like a bizarre position to take.
