All dogs are good dogs until they are bad dogs. That's the point of training them. Pits are naturally aggressive though.
Pit Bulls are terriers, literally ALL terriers are animal aggressive. Saying a breed is naturally aggressive without any context is incorrect. What kind of aggression? Animal or human? The two are very different traits and because a dog is animal or dog aggressive it does not mean that it is human aggressive and vice versa. And in the greater scope of things, all dogs have aggressive tendencies, doesn't matter how cute or soft it is.
You need animal aggressive dogs for vermin control, hunting, livestock guarding, etc. Does that mean that the dogs will declare a fatwa against all other animals? No. Human aggression in breeds that are traditional guardian breeds like German Shepards, Rottweilers, Robermans, etc is a trait for them to do their job. Does this mean that the dogs will automatically attack every person in sight? No, it means that they are more aloof with strangers on their property or in protecting their owners, exactly like my Cane Corso.
I mean, pits are prone to random and unprompted outbursts of aggression whereas most dogs tend not to be. Any dog can be aggressive if hungry, mistreated, trained in a specific way, etc. sure.
Dog attacks do not happen out of the blue or for no reason. It's not random, there are always precursors and signs that people do not often pick up until it blows up.
Feel free to believe that while everyone else keeps their kids away from you. ---
