[quote](Fatalities, on the other hand, are by definition seirous--dead is dead)[/quote] Deaths are tragic but to use the few fatalities by 'pit bulls' or All dogs to claim that there is even a remote problem with "pit bulls' or Dogs in general is ludicrous. Taking a high average of 30 fatalities by all Breeds/types and dividing by the estimated # of dogs .(75 million) and multiplying that by 100 gives you .00004 % That means that 99.99996% of dogs are not a problem. So trying to use fatalities to "prove" dangerousness of certain Breeds of dogs is sheer and utter nonsense and anyone who has reached the grade level where they teach percentages would understand that. And the assertion that 'pit bulls' are a problem because they caused the majority with so few in total is also ludicrous. If there were 4 fatalities one year and 'pit bulls' caused 3. You could state honestly that 'pit bulls' caused 75% of the fatalities that year. That doesn`t make 'pit bulls' more dangerous than other dogs or prove they are dangerous. You can make all the claims you want about the "danger" of these dogs but nothing backs it up.
