It's sad that many people are killed by rogue dogs. But you can't tar all fighting dogs with the same brush. With gentle handling as puppies, any dog would surely grow up being a lovely natured pet for a caring family. I think that dog owners are also slightly to blame. I often find that people where i live that own the pits or the rottweilers etc tend to be, well... fairly incompetent when it comes to looking after a dog. I'M NOT SAYING THAT FOR ALL FIGHTING DOG OWNERS, I KNOW MANY WHO KNOW MUCH MORE THAN I DO!!!! But sometimes it just seems to me that they are not fully aware about the abilities and power of their pets. I mean, for example, i've seen large dogs yanked on their leads, slapped on the back and kicked in the chest by boys with shaved heads and thick accents. That would just encourage them, as it would any animal,to be nasty to humans.
How many people did it say were hospitalised, about 3400??? When you think about it, that is a very tiny fraction of the population of the UK. Way more people are killed by careless driving. The government would do better to ban something like alcohol abuse or smoking, as these two things cause millions of deaths every year.
