I am in route to LA, and have faced several areas that I have been restricted from because of my loving, gentle, well trained dog (happens to a pit). Some of the reactions are horrifying. I don't read on bans against Labs, or even Chihuahas even though I do know of cases that THOSE dogs bit a child or acted in an "aggresive" manner. Pit bulls are loving, playful, loyal. If you raise a child with love and nurture and compassion and patience, you have a loving child. Beat that same child, talk to them abusively, then , perhaps you have raised an uncaring possibly agressive child that shows hatred and violence. It's not the breed, IT'S THE OWNER.

BSL is just ignorant in my eyes. I am not saying that it is 100 percent the owners fault these dogs are this way. Some of it has to do with breeding, and the temperments of these dogs, and the mixing that is going on that contributes to today's american pitbulls being unstable. Ownership, and socialization is the key, and people are being responsible dog owners. My dad was going to get a puppy, until he found out that his parish or town had an ordinance on pitbulls, that they had to get 100k insurance on the dog, couldn't walk it on a leash longer than 4 feet, and the dog had to be muzzled while walked. Couldn't be in thier back yard along, and if the dog was in the house, the windows couldn't be up! Are you kidding me? I understand that there may have been alot of incidences with pitbulls attacking people, but check the records and statistics, there are plenty other dog breeds out there that are MORE likely to bite than a pitbull, but yet when something happens with one of those breeds, it just gets over looked. First thing when its a pitbull, its plastered all over the news! IGNORANT! If BSL is the way we are going to handle this situation, might as well start banning the reproduction of white people, or black people, or mexicans. All races cause trouble, and kill, and rape. But it would be IGNORANT on our part to Specify one race to be worse than another, and ban the reproduction of that race! LETS STOP THE IGNORANCE!

I have 2 beautiful Pit Bulls they are the best family dog anyone could ask for. I have 2 small children and have never felt like i can't leave them in the room with our dogs!! They are awesome and there is no reason for all of this. IT all has to do with the way they are raised!! Please leave our babies alone!!

BSL is provin to be ineffective in many ways and is biegn turned over in multiple court cases Nation wide. If animial Control would do their job and inforce viscious dog ordiances and leash laws, no teathering, ect there would not be a problem. Plus BSL is Unconstitional as it violates the 5th and 14th amendedment to the US Constatution.

I am the proud owner of a Staffordshire terrier. He is a 70 lb loving, family dog who is as gentle as a baby! It is ridiculous to continue to punish this breed as well as the american pitt bull terrier. The way that these dogs are treated is inhumane! These dogs are abused and fought by vicvious individuals, and the general public tries to persecute them simply based on their breed as well. Bad people breed bad dogs, responsible dog owners do not!

I had an incident recently where a neighbor called the police about my dogs. They didn't want to say who they were or really why they called. So the officer showed up expecting to see fighting dogs in our yard. What he found was just the opposite. All the dogs were secured. There were no worries about them getting loose and terrorizing the neighborhood. He even felt comfortable enough to let us release them for a play session in the large, fenced-in yard while he was there. The officer seemed to really enjoy playing with these dogs(The same dogs everyone else assumes are vicious beasts). If these dogs are raised properly and cared for they are the best pets you can have. The public needs to be educated. Irresponsible owners need to be stopped. To ban the breed would not fix anything. Bad owners will only choose another breed to abuse and exploit.

I am a proud owner of a staffordshire terrier. The breed itself has been given a bad name because of stupid owners. My dog is 70 pounds and can play with my 2 year old nephew without causing a scratch. My dog is the closest thing I have to a kid, and it would take a real idiot to ban such a powerful, loving, athletic breed.

I own two pitbull terriers that are a part of my family. It is not bad dogs it is bad people. People like Michael Vick who make these dogs mean to satisfy thier own need. It is not pit bulls, a dog is what you make of it. My one year old and 4 year old love thier dogs, my one year old learned to walk holding her pits collar. Punish the people not the breed

Please take the time to get to know the real temperment of the pitbull the breed has never been human aggressive bad breeders who place puppies with anyone who can pay them are the problem, punish these people and the breed in general, your wisdome can only reflect as much as you trully know & learn about the breed once you understand that a pitbull is not born human aggressive your informed vote will be one for justice thank you
