Would you get a pitbull as a pet?

I heard a lot of talk about how awful pitbulls are, and how they are very aggressive. I've always wanted a pitbull myself, because I think they can be good and loyal dogs when trained right. I think they get a bad name because they are often used in dog fighting rings and aren't usually properly trained. But a well trained pitbull is just like any other dog, at least imo. My cousin has a pitbull and it's the most lovable idiot out there. I think if you train them properly and give them the attention they need, they will be perfectly fine to have as pets. But what are your thoughts? Do you think pitbulls get a bad wrap because of bad owners? Or are they in fact more aggressive than other dogs and therefore more dangerous? What do you think?

    Nothing wrong with pit bulls, if a pit bull has problems it's most likely the owner who messed the dog up.
    My daughter loves pits and she has a few, no problem with them at all. Me personally I wouldn't have one because I don't like the way they look. My favorite are Dobermans.
