How could I find the % of murders by the "Pit bull Breed" in America?

Question

I am doing a school project against rascism and I thought this would be a good way to show that rascim does not only exist amoungst us humans. It also exists among dogs.

What I am looking for is a % of how many murders there have been in Canada by the Pit Bull breed or any country. Than I would compare this to ciggarates, crime, automobiles ..etc and show the real stats.

Does anyone know?

Thanks
