Bad logic is bad logic, whether applied to dogs, humans, apples or whatever.
Racism is racism, whether it’s direct and obvious or just casually equating ethnic minorities to the most feared “dangerous” dogs whilst claiming that you’re “just explaining logical errors”.
No, you don’t get to pretend you didn’t make an awful and offensive analogy (based on your irrational belief that the pitbulls are falsely maligned).
If the logic is as flawed as you claim, there must be hundreds of analogies you can draw that aren’t racist and don’t equate black people in the USA with pitbulls.

There might be, but I’ve only ever heard “X is a minority yet causes the majority of fatalities” used for two Xs, it’s bad logic in both cases, it would be bad logic in any other case too, feel free to find me another example of that logic that people instinctively understand it’s wrong and I’ll use that next time.
