What is anyones opinion on BSL. Im currently a Pit Bull Mommy and a very responsible one at that, and Im hearing and reading more about this breed specific legislation and saw video and photos of what happened in Denver, It broke my heart. Im generally not an outspoken person, but the day comes that anyones comes and tries to take my dog from me will be a cold day in hell. I thought I lived in a free country where because of irresponsible, uncaring dog owners, I have to pay for their wrong doing and lose someone thats as big and important part of my life as my children......

I live here in Denver and am one of just a very few fighting the ban. The reason why the ban exists is several fold: Denver is a Home Rule Authority City... only the federal government can supersede local law (The state of Colorado made it unlawful for any city or muni to enact/ enforce BSL is 2004. Denver keeps on.), and the fact that the community wont take an active role in policing city government. Im originally from Los Angeles, CA. Ive been on the Denver ban 6 years and learning more and more that Colorado people refuse to take a stand unless it is about an issue that directly effects them. Denver city officials bank on this fact.
In other cities in the US and abroad, BSL has been discussed and it never even left the bathroom stall before it was shot down by the community. That sort of support doesnt exist here.
