Well, their temperament is shit, too.
They are dog-aggressive by nature. Go read the link I posted a few posts up. Those are pitbull owners and lovers talking. So it starts out as a shitty dog to have around. Then you have absolutely horrible breeding practices that are rampant where human aggression is not culled like Big Daddy was suggesting. You get thousands of pups just found on the side of the road from whoever didn't bother to get their dog fixed and doesn't want to deal with it. Then you have the bleeding hearts that want every dog adopted, no matter what asshole behavior it has shown in the past.
There needs to be a serious culling of the pit population and get their breeding back to something in the neighborhood of responsible. But every neck tatoo wearing douchebag with a padlock chain is breeding them in their backyard and trying to make a buck. And every hippie with a love for dogs is trying to save every last one of them, no matter how bad their breeding and behavior.
It's time to stop trying to save every damn one of them and get the population under control. Then maybe we can have a discussion about breed characteristics.
