Well one is stated as an opinion, and the other is a biased website. I consider neither acceptable sources.

    ┌────────────────────┐
    you took me into your arms
    you taught me to smile, be brave
    you were my teacher, my lover, my life
    but one day, you shot me down
    and i never got back up

Yes! I know that, and I have said it many times! But unfortunately humans have been messing with these dogs for too long, that they have gotten too dangerous. If the government had done something earlier then this breed would have been saved from this!

Yes clearly if you banned/killed all pit bulls then there would simply would be less pit bulls and therefor less attacks. But if we banned/killed all people then wouldn't there be less robbery and murder. Sure pits are big strong dogs so clearly deadly dog attacks are usually done by pits, but that's because there bigger and stronger then most dogs. If a little chihuahua nips you it's no problem. If a pit nips you you burst out bleeding. I visit the animal shelter quite often and not once have I seen a pit bull show any signs of aggression and there are quite a lot of pits there. So I don't see why we should kill or ban them because of that.

"You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium"
-David Guetta Titanium

Between school, my pets, homework, art and life I have not been able to get on cs often, so please don't be surprised if I'm not very active.

No. Any dog breed can be turned into something nasty, but none of them deserve to be destroyed. A dog that has bitten a human needs serious rehabilitation and training before being rehomed into an experienced home. The entire breed doesn't need to be wiped off of the face of the earth because a few idiots ruined it, we just need to help better the breed.
