You seem to have shifted your position from bull breeds being bad, to owners being bad so I'm content with that.

Oh wow,
That is funny.
Let me be clear though. I don't think Bull Breeds are "bad", but I do believe they are inherently dangerous and I think only 1% (made up number but you get my point) are actually qualified to handle the breed.
The breed is usually just doing what it is bred to do. I don't blame a lion for attacking a gazelle and I don't blame a Pit Fighting dog for attacking other dogs, (or humans)...
So while it is the owner, the responsibility will always come back to the breed, especially as they become more popular.
Here is a recent story of a young girl, her baby sitter and the neighbor, all getting attacked by a friendly, family pet, that almost killed the girl.

Whose fault is it? The owners, they should never have had that dog, as most owners should not. I should not be seeing Pit Bulls in the park, everyday, by the average, "I want a dog" twenty something, or soccer mom. It is a speciality dog for speciality handlers....
These are specific dogs bred for specific reasons and should only be handled by specialized owners who understand the risk, potential, strengths and dangers of having a breed like this in the backyard.
