Breed specific legislation isn't a real solution. Pit bulls are one entry on a long list of strong dogs that require good training and a careful owner. There's plenty of other breeds antisocial assholes or uneducated owners can't and/or won't control to replace them. Dog attacks need to be treated like a negligent discharge. When that happens, you will immediately see a massive drop in the number of people with poorly trained dogs they can't handle.
