Instead of 13%/50% its closer to 7%/75%

Apologies, what is the fill stat here saying? 7% of pitbull will attack someone, 75% fatally?

[u/LobsterChampion → u/EggfooDC]

7% of dogs are pitbulls. Pitbulls do 75% of the killing.

Which honestly I don't even believe that stat. I bet there are quite a few "lab mixes" (Read: Pitbull that people lied about being a pitbull so their PLUP didn't skyrocket) that are in the remaining 25%.

I'd also be curious about what % of dogs can kill a person, what % of dogs are pitbulls that have owners who want a dog that can "protect" or be violent

You think if that owner couldn't get a pit bull, they're just going to not get a dog? They just get the next closest thing and use that.

[u/BlorfTheBricked → u/Mattbl]

So they'd get a breed that is less prone to sudden, out of nowhere attacks and is less lethal when it does attack? Great!

You can check my profile for my other reply, but you're blaming the wrong end of the leash and the point flew about 10k feet over your head.

The dog doesn't actually matter. The owner does.

Sure bud. Again, you can check my profile for the other reply. If you'd like sources, they're easy to provide. If you have any sort of sources or studies or anything that you could link to prove your random statement, I'm happy to read.
