So if one dog bites one child...it's allright to kill hundreds of dogs who will never bite a child? Just on the off chance that they *might* bite someone. Tippy *might* bite someone , then again, she may decide to stay in the air conditioning all day long. This legislature sounds too much like a "racial" profile to me...and guilt by association. I'm all for punishing the animals who train these dogs to do things like that, but it really isn't the fault of the dog. A properly trained and socialized pit bull isn't going to gnaw poor little Johny's arm off on a Tuesday, just because he's a pit bull.
and also, it reminds me of shark panic. One person gets bit by a shark...so let's go kill hundreds of them because they *might* bite someone.
and killing a dog because it "looks" like a pit bull is, in a word, bullshit. Absolute and complete BULLSHIT.
