Letter to dumb asses who do not understand shit about dog related deaths vs dog bite victims. Do your fucking research you Hitler wannabe. BTW pits do not have lock jaw.

http://www.americanhumane.org/animal...dog-bites.html

Approximately 92% of fatal dog attacks involved male dogs, 94% of which were not neutered.

At least 25 different breeds of dogs have been involved in the 238 dog-bite-related fatalities in the U.S.4

Breed-specific legislation (BSL)

* In response to these statistics, many communities have enacted breed-specific legislation (BSL) that prohibits ownership of certain breeds, such as pit bulls, Rottweilers and others.
* Any breed of dog can bite, and research suggests BSL does little to protect the community from dog-bite incidents.
* In fact, BSL can often have unintended consequences -- such as black-market interest and indiscriminant breeding practices -- resulting in subsequent breed overpopulation that leads to increases in the number of homeless, stray and euthanized dogs.
* Enforcement of BSL has been shown to be very costly and extremely difficult to enforce. One county in Maryland spent more than $560,000 maintaining pit bulls (not including payroll, cross-agency costs and utilities), while fees generated only $35,000.5
* Responsible breeding and ownership, public education and enforcement of existing laws are the most effective ways of reducing dog bites.
* American Humane supports local legislation to protect communities from dangerous animals, but does not advocate laws that target specific breeds of dogs.
