379. The facts don't support BSL laws.
If speeding in a car is a problem do we make red cars illegal? It's obvious they go faster - because they're RED, obviously! And when that doesn't work, would we outlaw yellow ones? The black cars? And then, after tons of study - because focusing on the color doesn't work - we outlaw big "dangerous" engines. Then manual transmissions, ten turbocharging & fuel injection. None of which would work.

If speeding is a problem, the stop & cite people who go fast!


Outlawing Pit Bulls because some dogs are aggressive is like outlawing red cars because some cars speed. For both problems, the issue is really with the owner.
