You're right, we will need to agree to disagree, theres so many problems with this law and what people like you think it does for you, its not even funny. false sense of secuity.

When did I say I had any sense of security as a result of this legislation - false or otherwise - I didn't and I don't. But again, that wasn't the intent.

Because of course bad owners will be bad owners regardless of the breed they own (something I assume we agree on) ... but we're talking about a very small step here that will do two things ... potentially eliminate the threat of pit bull attacks in Ontario (to whatever degree Ontarians obey the law), ... and it has perhaps opened the eyes of dog owners in general, and especially those who have other so-called dangerous breeds, that they have a significant responsibility to the rest of the community to ensure their dogs do not endanger anyone; and should behave accordingly.

As a good dog owner Nate I see how this legislation is unfair to you should you wish to have a pit bull ... and I'm not insensitive to it. But until you or a group of dog owners can come up with a plan to eliminate pit bull attacks that has the same certainty as eliminating the breed, I'll continue to vote in favour of the community in general versus the priviledges of a few dog owners..
