PIT BULL RALLY

The City of Denver currently has a ban on “pit bulls”, and the City of Aurora is proposing a ban. Whether you are a lover of the bully breed or just against government imposing unconstitutional laws, please join us at the rally.

250+ INNOCENT FAMILY PETS DESTROYED SINCE MAY 9TH, 2005


OPPOSE breed-specific legislation (BSL) and join the fight against the City of Aurora pit bull ban. BSL continues to spread even after studies have proven it’s ineffective. BSL is ruinously expensive for a city to implement and enforce. Determining a dog's breed or mix is extremely difficult, often resulting in mistaken identities and ensuing lawsuits. It increases the financial burden on taxpayers, animal shelters, and animal control agencies. It affects dogs based on appearance, not temperament. It does not stop dog attacks or bites. It does not stop irresponsible owners or dissuade criminals. It does not educate anyone about proper dog care.

Just some of the groups opposed to breed specific legislation:


* The Humane Society of the United States · American Kennel Club
* American Veterinary Medical Association · United Kennel Club
* Centers for Disease Control and Prevention · Denver Dumb Friends League

Unfortunately stuiff like this has happened in many places the APBT as a whole fights the best we can from out of state but the people within the states have the most power to get out there and speak up as they vote there and can use that as leverage.

I don't think most understand the awful after affects this has such as causing chain reaction in neighboring places and also that once one breed is singled out others are surely to follow.

Don't think the irresponsible owners won't just move on to another breed because they will and then that breed will suffer as well while the real criminals get away with it due to the ignorance of the politions and AC and law enfircement that don't enforce the laws on the books already

It is just SAD!
