How my understanding has changed

For the longest times I have had strong opinions about Pit Bulls being mistreated (in the U.S. more specifically).  Now, I want to put my pro-Pit Bull opinions to the test.  I want to double check my opinions with facts.
At first I was setting out to prove people who are against Pit Bulls wrong (which I still want to do).  Although, I think that will come naturally when I find facts that (hopefully) prove me right.

I never realized how many Pit Bulls there are.

They make up 30-40% of the dog population in the world.  There are about 5.4 million Pit Bulls just in the U.S. and there are about 1 million Pit Bulls killed each year (in the whole world).

I found a very interesting website that broke down all of the scientific information on Pit Bulls and it turns out there is a higher chance of a human killing a Pit Bull than the other way around.

The Pit Bull was originally made back before the 1800's to bite and hold onto large animals.
Every 60 seconds an animal is abused
