Yes. They're dangerous in the sense that they're capable of harming people, property, and other animals... but that's my point: SO IS EVERY DOG.
I've seen the damage a pitbull can do first hand (e.g. my carpet, the french doors that go out to my deck
) and it's severe. I've actually seen a pit go after a person (but not hurt him) in an aggressive manner before and it was terrifying! But I've seen my friend's golden retriever do much worse.
