Pitbulls account for 70% of fatal dog attacks, while only being 6% of dogs. It's not a dog whistle, pitbulls are a violent and dangerous breed, and everyone I know with a pitbull is white as fuck.

Nope, pitbulls are a violent and dangerous breed. Labradors vastly outnumber them, yet never kill anyone. And there's plenty of shitty Labrador owners out there.
Breeds do matter, and shit breeds make for shit dogs.
