Pit Bulls aren't automatically dispositioned to be killers. The problem is that people who buy these dogs aren't prepared to deal with this difficult breed. Plus, I'm sure there is a stigma that makes people raise these dogs in a more agressive manner.
It also doesn't help that these dogs have been overbred and inbred way too much. There is a huge difference between a very expensive, well bred Pit and an inexpensive, poorly bred Pit.
I don't want to stereotype, but it seems the majority of Pit Bull's that attack people are owned by poor, urban families. Not being able to afford a well bred dog, a large enough and well fenced yard, and adequate obedience training all factors into making these dangerous dogs.
And if there is any question on whether the owners should be charged... there is none. Throw the book at them and destroy the dog.
