However, if they are properly trained and loved they are no more dangerous than any other breed of dog.

My pit got out of my house once but as trained didn't leave the property. When I found her she was sitting at the edge of my yard watching people walk around my yard in the street but she didn't bother them.
In this story the dog's owners were not around and the dogs were out running around the neighborhood. That's not the definition of being well trained. I blame the owners.
