historically, pits were bred to be great family dogs, and any pit that displayed aggression toward humans was never bred and was usually killed, thereby preventing passing along that trait.
when well-meaning people like yourself outlawed dog-fighting, you effectively took the breeding decisions away from the experienced breeders and thrust it upon puppy mills and normal everyday people. dogs were not bred for traits, and no selection was made because killing animals is brutal.
so, now there is a problem, and you want to ban the dogs! i would prefer that people become smarter instead, and find a way to encourage responsible behavior instead of placing blame where undeserved. The result of any legislation should strengthen the breed that millions of Americans love.
