Most of the dogs on the ban list are big. But what they really need is stricter owner selection. On the other hand, that would be to hard to implement.

It wouldn't be hard to do some sort of licensing programs for animals similar to drivers licenses. It could cost quite a bit of money, but could also bring in enough revenue to pay for it if done properly.
That said, everyone who owns a dog, not just pits should be required to take it, as plenty of dipshits are incapable of taking care of the dogs they own, big or small.
Monty has been attacked by 3 off leash dogs, none of them pitbulls, while he was on leash.
A shepherd looking mutt that was about 30-40 lbs more than him, a sharpei, and a black lab, who actually attacked him twice in succession. Going for a bite, being warned off by Monty, then coming back and biting him on the neck before I kicked it.
They were all owned by fucking idiots, and the dogs actions have no bearing on wether their breeds are safe or not, because when improperly handled, trained, and treated, all dogs have potential to be dangerous.
