Why don't you trust them? Just because media(TV,books,News,ect.) states that pitbulls are agressive doesn't mean anything. Media lies half the time. Maybe pitbulls attack people on occasion. But guess what? SASSY has attacked more people then I can count and do you see "Maltese Discrimanation". No. Just because pitbulls have stronger jaws then other dogs doesn't mean they use them to attack people. It's the usually the owners fault they attack people. First off, I don't see why people have to tie up dogs and leave them outside on chains. They get absolutley no love and attention from anyone and probably see us humans as threats. Second, fences should be checked regularly to prevent the dog from getting out. These are just LITTLE reasons. A major reason pitbulls are known as "aggressive" is because of illegal dog fighting. People just don't realize that idiots whom have no lives train these animals to attack each other. Pits are VERY loyal dogs and always want to please thier master. As a result, they want to obey the owner and fight the other dog. They know nothing else therefore it's not their fault. ANY dog is capable of attacking someone if they wanted to and I see no reason to not trust pits. If I have offended anyone with this post, sorry. But this is my opinion. I do not see any reason not to trust pitbulls.
