Until they snap and will attack your children out of the blue. So many stories of good owners with well behaving pit bulls that attack their owners.

No one is going to admit they regularly beat their dog after the dog snaps. Blame it on the dog, put the dog down and the responsibilty dies with it.

So many? Like, a statistically significant amount that would show in an unbiased study, or just anecdotal accounts from social media?

Ah, yes, the same chart from DogsBite.org that all the anti-pit-bull types pass around like highschoolers passing around a particularly juicy note. The website with an incredibly obvious and documented bias against pit bulls. Surely I can trust their spin on things over the multitude of studies that conclude that breed isn't a reliable predictor of aggression.
