I don't agree with it. My solution is if your dog - regardless the breed - attacks someone, you, the dog owner, get charged with the equivalent crime as if you did it. That should help people put a little more thought into the "my dog wouldn't hurt a fly" attitude.

You'd damned well better hope not.

I'm not sure I would go that far, but I would definitely agree that owners of dogs, no matter the breed, should be held responsible for their dog's actions. Now if the dog develops a habit, yeah assault charges seem to be warranted at that point.

As to the legislation, fairly typical and disgusting.

My dogs won't bother you unless you are aggressive to me or come in my house when I'm not here. Either if those happen, then it's you a$$, not mine that's got trouble.

Misleading title is misleading.



There are several municipalities all across the US that have such-democrat and republican.

If certain breeds become resticted to own, where do those dogs go, what happens to them? Is there really a problem with a whole breed of dog or certain ones? Why dont they go after all the white/black dogs or the short/long dogs.

LIST 1
1. Chihuahua
2. Beagle
3. Pekinese
4. Shar Pei
5. Bull Terrier
6. Cocker Spaniel
7. Dalmation
8. Jack Russel Terrier
9. Chow Chow
10. Dachshund

LIST 2

1. Pit Bull Terrier
2. Rottweiler
3. Siberian Husky
4. Saint Bernard
5. German Shepherd
6. Great Dane
7. Doberman Pinscher
8. Chow Chow
9. Alaskan Malamute
10. Akita

Municipalities already stick their noses into their citizens' lives to a ridiculous level, trying to make sure everybody's yard is pretty, banning non-running cars in driveways, and lots of other crap that is none of their business. Just one reason I can't wait until I can afford an acreage in the country. People in our society really don't seem to know how to live and let live.
