    It is our belief that BSL affects all the good pet owners-- the ones of us who are doing right by the breed n being responsible pet owners. When we hear the phrase "BSL" it makes us angry at the discrimination! Discrimination is the same as being racist, And, deeming a breed in it self as bad is wrong!

    This is an act of discrimination against innocent animals. Often times, BSL refers targets "pit bulls" which is not a breed. Furthermore, dogs often identified as "pit bulls" such as Amstaffs are unlike other dogs in that most are very smart and loving animals. It is not humane to put down an animal that has not shown that it will attack. I will fight this initiative tooth and nail. It is unjust and discriminatory.

    This is very threatening to our freedom. The type of dog we own should not be determined by anyone but the family that lives in the household.

    I think BSL is stupid and a waste of time and money. How could anyone judge a dog based on how they look?

    It's how they are raised and has absolutely nothing to do with the breed itself. Of course if our lawmakers weren't so unbelievably stupid we wouldn't be here in the first place.

    This is unethical and traumatizing. Take a moment and truly feel the devastating impact that you will be giving pet owners everywhere , you'll be killing their child. You will be taking away a chance for an innocent to be loved. No breed was ever born bad but there was cruel people who made only a certain group of dogs truly aggressive. Do not punish the wrong animal. The only justice will be to end dog fighting, puppy mills, and stereotypes. Do not kill the innocent you'll be helping the criminal not the victim.

    BSL is murder plain and simple. It destroyes families and has not shown to stop dog bites since most dog bites come from other types of dogs not listed in the legislation. Stop the MURDER!

    The way to save people from vicious dogs is banning vicious owners, not keeping an innocent dog from loving families!

    This is outrageous! BSL is entirely unethical. People train dogs of specific breeds to be "dangerous" IT IS THE PEOPLE WHO ABUSE AND TRAIN THESE ANIMALS! A dog is a mere product of its environment they do what they are trained to do! Animal abuse and malpractice of breeding should have higher penalities. Punish the people who do this not the breed.

    If our main priority is to get rid of a breed, then get rid of the bad owners first.
