37 years as a liability insurance adjuster, I can tell you that a pit bull will get your policy cancelled as quick as anything. And if you end up in a lawsuit due to a dog bite, good luck trying to convince a jury "but he's a good dog".

Being put in jail or fined doesn't raise people from the dead and does very little for their loved ones.

People are wrong when they blame a firearm of any kind when someone murders another human being. The firearm didn't do the killing. It was the idiot who fired the weapon.
A person who owns a pitbull is like the person who fired the gun. It's not necessarily the dog's fault as it's in a pitbull's nature to become aggressive. I've always felt if you own a pitbull knowing their history and it kills or maims someone you should be held criminally liable same as the person who fires a gun and murders someone.

A guy from our church was visiting his son in TX. It was the last day of his visit. He went out to get the mail from his son's mailbox. He was attacked by 3 pitbulls. He said they would have killed him, but a passerby in a truck jumped out with a baseball bat and was able to beat the dogs off of him long enough to get him in his truck and to a hospital. He lost most of the muscles on his forearm and thigh. He was hospitalized for nearly month. He now walks with the assistance of a walker. The owner of the pitbulls who lived about a half mile down the road from his son's, had no insurance (big surprise). The dogs were put down. He doesn't know if the guy was ever arrested or held responsible.
