I think this is so wrong! What do you think?

Another city in the Denver area (Commerce City) is banning the pit bull. You have to go by strict rules if you are a pit bull owner. You have to register your pit bulls. Anyway, the people so far that have went by the rules and registered their dogs were treated dirty IMHO. The newspaper there put everyones address in the paper. They said everyone that lives there needs to know where the pit bulls live. I saw an interview on the news with one of the ladies that has her address in the paper. She is now afraid for her dog. I dont blame her.

I dont know about Colorado sometimes. Here is the article if you want to take a look at it. http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drm...416508,00.html

To me its just like guns, the honest citizens who are responsible with their dogs and report and registar are not the problem, its the dishonest ones that are using them for aggression that we most need to worry about that will not registar. Although I probably wouldn't tell them that state seems scary to me now.

I would be VERY worried too if someone published my address and claimed I had a "dangerous" dog!

Obviously someone behind this has a vindictive personal agenda.

I agree!

That's terrible! Who knows what people will come do to the so called "vicious" dogs!

**Pembroke_Corgi** · 01-26-2006, 02:01 PM

That is disheartening. People never never ever look at "facts." Tons of people are bitten by dogs every year, mostly kids actually, most of the time by a dog they are familiar with. How many of these dogs are actually pit bulls? Probably a small percentage. The media likes to play on people's fears and it works. I can't believe they are actually publishing people's adresses?

That seems so wrong.

Oh come on! That's ridiculous! Just one more step in the wrong direction

I don't understand people who are so against any specific breed

**Lady'sOtherHuman** · 01-26-2006, 06:22 PM

I totally agree. It's not the breed itself they should be worrying about it's the people who own the dogs and training them to be aggressive. In Massachusetts some home insurance companies will not insure your home if you have certain breeds of dogs that are considered breeds used for guard duty or are known to be aggressive.

This is absolutely insane! I remember reading that out of all dog breeds most likely to bite, pitties were fourth from the bottom of the list!
I really hope that people start to get a grip...Pitties are just as loving, and kind as any other dog breed. This really makes me angry...

Lets see..

Hundreds of addresses with Pit Bulls are listed to the public.
A thug wastes his 25cent drug money on a paper, gets the contact info for and steals hundreds of money-making Pit Bulls (to him), and he has a whole new business!

GREAT.

What idiot put these idiots in charge of such things?

**bckrazy** · 01-26-2006, 09:23 PM

Wow, it's like an innocent pet Pittie is being treated like a freakin sex offender. >:[ how repulsive. I totally agree with Jessika, that all dog breeders/owners should register their dogs so they can be kept track of.
