Clearly, if every owner was nice, they would be more or less ok, but that's impossible because dogs like this will always have a sort of appeal to unpleasant people.
That sounds like an argument that pitbulls are only conditionally more dangerous, rather than inherently so. Their appeal to the wrong sorts of owners doesn't make them more dangerous than other breeds. It makes them more attractive to unpleasant and/or lazy owners. What you have pointed out is a factor which skews the data, not proof that they are inherently less trainable than other breeds.
