Well causing a bigger mess is kind of a big deal. If a toy poodle attacks me I can likely win. Against a pitbull, I don't like my odds.

And there are a LOT more pitbull fatalaties than your average mutt. See http://www.dogsbite.org/bite-fatalities-2010.htm




I can see now what I did there, I'm not a native speaker so formulating complex ideas is still pretty hard for me in english.

It was wrong of me to say that Pits are less dangerous than your average mutt - because that is clearly not the case, since your average mutt is NOT 100 LBS of muscle and determination.

I should of said that pits are (inherently) less likely to attack humans than your average mutt - meaning they take "encouragement" (read training) towards human agression.
