Breed Specific Legislation



"Don't go near that dog, it'll bite your hand off! And what are you going to do when you have babies? Those kind of dogs kill babies. Its not their fault, it's their nature. What do your neighbors think about you having that kind of dog in their neighborhood?"

GoogleNews the word "pit bull", and the first 4 stories today are about attacks, and the 5th story is about a city in Missori banning pit bulls in "an effort at citizen protection."

PETA (http://www.peta.org/about/hottopic007.asp) supports the ban of pit bulls.

The ASPCA, the CDC(http://www.aspca.org/about-us/policy-positions/breed-specific-legislation-1.html), and the PSPCA (http://www.pspca.org/events?id=469) all opppose Breed Specific Legislation, because it does not work.

Read the CDC report on dog bites and still think that Pit Bulls should be banned? Play this game and realize why the results are not accurate -

Ok, now I will get off my soap box. :) Have a nice day.
