I'm not usually looking for more government regulation, but I don't think that animal abuse in the form of dog fighting or the methods that they (allegedly?)used to kill the dogs who lost should be tolerated in our society. If banning or very strictly regulating the breed would make it enforcement easier, maybe people who really love pit bulls should consider that they are better off not in the hands of dog fighters, even if it means that few others can own them either?
(Basically, I'm assuming that with a bane, someone seeing a Pit Bull will give probable cause for an investigation.)

I suppose that you are in favor of racial profiling also? That makes enforcement easier.
