I have, sadly, also known a few assholes with pits. A guy I used to live across the street had a couple of pits. He was one of those white trash guys who thought having a couple of badass dogs made him tough. He would love it when the dogs would rush the fence, snarling and growling at people walking by. Those are the kind of dogs that one day eat your kid.
Anyone who chooses a pit bull as a pet is asking for trouble especially if they have a family. If a family wants a dog, go for a Labrador, Boxer, Collie, etc.
