  You can wonder all you want, it won't change the fact that these dogs were bred to fight until death, and that is exactly where the danger is. The danger isn't when the dog is sleeping, the danger isn't when the dog is docile, the danger is when the dog's gameness kicks in and its instinct is to fight until death. And they're very good at doing what they were bred for. When most other dog breeds attack, the attack is usually over quickly, people can separate the animal from its target, but not with pit bulls. There are videos of pit bulls attacking horses for fun, and continuing to attack even after the horse kicks the pit bull several times. This is not behavior due to how the dog was raised or trained. Nobody can train away this kind of instinct the dog was bred to have. Even the famous dog trainer Cesar Milan's pit bull has attacked and killed other animals, famously killing Queen Latifah's pet dog. So no, it's not because pit bulls aren't being trained or because they are owned by shitty owners. These dogs are a menace to society, and rightfully banned in many countries.
