Wouldn't be surprised to see something like this locally. Would be interested to see objective data from other areas with bans in place. I suspect that pitbulls are responsible for a disproportionate amount of bites and severe injuries.
I saw what was posted about Ontario and I see that bites from other breeds went up. But I know I'd much rather be attacked by a golden or a gsd. You can't deny what pitbulls were bred for and they can physically do a lot more damage than other breeds.
