Ohio wants to outlaw Pit Bulls...

[mtlhead 10+ year member]

Ohio House Bill 568, introduced by Representative Tyrone Yates of Cincinnati, seeks to prohibit the ownership, keeping, or harboring of a dog that "belongs to a breed that is commonly known as a pit bull dog." Furthermore, if this bill is passed and adopted into law, all such dogs will be seized and euthanized. It is imperative that all concerned dog owners in Ohio contact their elected representatives and express their vehement opposition to this draconian legislation.
HB 568 unacceptably provides that:

No person shall own, keep, or harbor a dog that belongs to a breed that is commonly known as a pit bull dog. No later than 90 days after the effective date of this bill, a person who owns, keeps, or harbors a pit bull dog will be forced to surrender the dog to a dog warden. Within ten days of surrender, the dog warden shall euthanize the dog.

If an officer has probable cause to believe that a dog is a pit bull, the officer may apply for a search warrant. After obtaining a search warrant, an officer shall seize the dog and transfer the dog to the dog warden, who

shall euthanize the dog within 10 days.

Seriously, what the hell, banning a specific breed of dogs? Anyone can raise a dog to be mean, it doesn't really matter what breed it is... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

That is awful to slaughter hundreds of thousands of dogs because some of them are RAISED to be mean and fight; I have friends with pits and they're some of the nicest dogs.

Ohio legislation needs to stop playing Hitler.

If someone tried to take and kill my dogg cop or no cop he or she would be dead I think of my dog just like a human and will blow the brains out of the back of a pigs head if they came a knocking

These dogs are vicious ruthless child killers and are naturally unstable and untrustworthy.
