    BSL is discriminatory and is unconstitutional. Abolish the act.

    BSL is Discrimmination. Discrimmination is against the law.

    BSL in not a solution. Rather its a problem which needs a solution. Countless innocent dogs are killed everyday solely on the basis of how they look. This is the worst form of RACISM and a shame for mankind. No living being whether human or animal deserves this. Please end BSL!

    So, child molesterers and rapists are given multiple chances, but a pit bull jumps up and scratches someone's belly a little and the dog gets put down? Every time I read about the courts taking control of the matter, with a pit bull involved, they tend to shotgun the process as fast as possible and put the dog down before the owners and supporters get a chance to make an argument. I'd bet my paycheck that no pit bull owner has ever been an official part of the destruction of another pitbull in these cases. Again, my paycheck, I would bet the officials involved were dog snobs or non-dog people. There's so much to love and learn about the APBT or AmStaff breeds. To not do so before approving another one be put down is close-minded, inhumane, lazy, and altogether... un-American. Be mindful of what you do with these dogs and their plight. Someday, someone or something you love may be on the chopping block. History is the ultimate judgment of man. Be on the right side of the story.

    BSL is the beginning of a slippery slope that ends as it did for Lennox in Belfast and Wicca in Montreal. It is a dangerous path to start down, and I implore our lawmakers to recognize that it is a measure taken out of fear and misinformation, not public interest. Please take the time to learn more about the breeds that are being affected and you will find that these extreme measures are both unwarranted and inhumane. We look to you to have the courage to learn more about the ramifications of BSL, educate your colleagues and continue to be the leaders that we look to to make the difficult decisions that safeguard our rights and interests. With great respect, Amanda Bradley.

    I believe that BSL is against our rights as Americans. It is taking away the freedom that makes the United States stand out against the other countries in the world. What will be next you will start killing our children also? It is the owner that makes a dog mean not the breed, this is the same as saying that a child that was abused and turns into a killer as an adult it was his "breed" not the abuse that caused it.

    BSL is wrong and inhumane. Punish the deed, not the breed!! Pit bulls are wonderful dogs, and were even called NANNY dogs because people used them to watch their KIDS!! These kind of things make me question the government more and more..

    Breed bans are an inefficient and prejudice and cruel. Fear and ignorance are powerful motivators. Please educate yourself before you discriminate.
