Title: RPOA - Should certain dog breeds be banned? Post by: jls41 on September 26, 2011, 09:52:51 am Crossposting is encouraged.
September 24, 2011 http://www.theblaze.com/stories/should-certain-dog-breeds-be-banned/ Responsible Pet Owners Alliance has opposed Breed Specific Legislation for 20 years -- ever since we organized and remain ever vigilant. This link allows comments below the article regarding dog breed bans. However the article is inaccurate to state that "Justin's Law" was proposed in Texas last session but did not pass. Texas has a law prohibiting Breed Specific Legislation as do some other states. "Justin's Law" was never a bill and was not filed by any legislator during the recent session of our Texas Legislature although one local attorney received lots of publicity statewide with her attempts. RPOA knows of one legislator who even owns a so-called "pitbull" himself. "Pit Bull" is not a breed and you cannot regulate what can't be identified. ..............................................................

certain breeders and certain dog owners need to be banned from owning these so called breeds that are in constant peril of getting banned...The irresponsible dog owners that give the responsible owners a bad name...
