Dog bite severity varies by the breed of dog, and studies have found that pit bull–type dogs have both a high rate of reported bites and a high rate of severe injuries, compared to other non–pit bull–type dogs.

Pit bull–type dogs are extensively used in the United States for dogfighting, a practice that has continued despite being outlawed. Several nations and jurisdictions restrict the ownership of pit bull–type dogs through breed-specific legislation.

You seem to be implying bans would be futile if the intention is to reduce attacks because other breeds will simply start attacking more. Am I misunderstanding your assumptions? That sounds like a bizarre position to take.
