Staffordshire terrier if registered with the A.K.C. These are the real pitbulls.

Not an actual breed of dog, but a category containing the American Pit Bull Terrier, the American Staffordshire Terrier, and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. However, it's a term used by the media to describe any dog that shares the same physical characteristics of the above breeds, including the American Bulldog, Argentine Dogo, Boxer, etc.
Because of the wide range of breeds called 'pit bulls', people have an unclear perception of what they actually are. Any mixed breed that looks like an APBT is also often called a 'pit bull'.

Originally: A shortened name for the American Pit Bull Terrier
Today: A term used by the media to label all bully breeds and any mixes of these breeds. It is also used by backyard breeders who have no other intention than to make money or produce fighting dogs or guard dogs.

'Pit Bull' is the only term commonly used to report these attacks. It is often used many times and the dogs is often not an actual American Pit Bull Terrier.

(2 words) Short for American Pit Bull Terrier. A breed recognized by the UKC and ABDA historically bred for hog hunting, eventually for dog fighting. The AKC recognizes this breed as the American Staffordshire Terrier- a show line strain of the APBT since the 1930's. The name Pit Bull exclusively applies to the purebred American pit Bull Terrier.
Dude, a Pit Bull isn't a breed. It's a term to describe various dogs with similar features.
Nope. It's a recognized breed since 1898. Shortened name for the American Pit Bull Terrier. Anything else is a different breed or a a Bully/mastiff mutt.

A breed of dog that is often stereotyped as being violent, when they are actually some of the most gentle creatures on this planet. Ranked 2nd behind the trusty Golden Retriever, Pit Bulls aced the "temperant canine" exams.
Because of their strong build and "iron-jaws" Pit Bulls are often trained for dog fighting and used as guard dogs, giving them a violent reputation. Many of the weaker Pit Bulls are left wounded and bound to die in the streets by Human Hands. These wonderful and kind-hearted dogs have potential to be outstanding pets and companions when treated correctly, and still thousands are sent to be euthanized for no reason every year.

I rescued my Pit Bull mix from an abuse shelter, and he's never even barked at anyone, and is very patient with cats and children.

A shitty dog known for attacking all living things, including humans (adults and childrens), and other dogs. Idiotic pit bull apologists will claim that whenever a pit bull kills someone, it's the owner's fault, saying "Uhhhh it's not the dog itself that's shitty, the dogs known for attacking just had bad owners!". While pit bulls who are trained well usually exhibit a loving personality, many of those same pit bulls have been known to be angered by small things and attack someone. Remember, these dogs were bred to fight. All it takes is to accidentally step on their tail to have them maul your newborn son to death. These dogs are a favorite of ghetto low-lifes. I personally think that there should be a ban on pit bulls in the United States.
Person 1: Aw what the fuck, this dog is fucking mutilating my leg!
Person 2: Oh, you mean Baxter? But he's a kind soul, he would never attack anyone!
Person 1: He's attacking me right now, what the fuck are you talking about!
Person 3: Look, asshole Person 1, it's not that poor dog's fault you kicked its leg a little (by accident). Stop being a pussy crybaby!
Pit bull: *proceeds to eat a newborn baby's face off*
