My sister's neighbor, her "adopted daughter", if you will, is trying to raise money to go from Brooklyn to Montreal with a van to rescue as many pit bulls as she can before they are put down this Monday under a new law. My sister is driving up there. (I'd be going, too, if I weren't allergic!)

No more Sanctuary Cities or pitbull trafficking!
Caring for animals does not necessarily equate with not carring for humans. For liberals it may, but not pro-life conservatives. In any case, I care nothing for Pit bulls.
Plenty of trained pit bulls already in this country to guard all the meth labs and crack houses and let guys with physical limitations strut like men. No need for more.
Yea, they are loving, loyal pets - until they eat a baby.
Real dogs have a snout.
Pit bulls have a mouth.
Put them ALL down. As of yesterday.
I love the animals and, of course babies. It disturbs me that FR has such a heartless kill em all attitude about a mistreated and maligned animal. Shame, shame, shame. I have more feelings and respect for animals brought up or put in a loving environment than the ruthless spittle exhibited by some Freepers here.
Wow I had a rescue pit that had cancer and we had to put down. Yup my pit was aggressive with other dogs and I never left him unattended with children. I know you all hate pits but my pit was a good dog and I miss him.
If I had a way to hinder them, I would.
Pit bulls are animal IEDs waiting to go off.
Pit Bulls are not good companion animals. These dogs need to be banned everywhere.
Wow! I am proud of the wise Freepers’ responses here.
The Communist Manifesto says to trash all social good.
Good is bad. Violence is peace.
Violent breeds are fluffy, loving pets.
I rest better knowing Freepers are not conned easily.
Invading with violent religions and violent breeds is a clear pattern to bring trouble to good people.
That’s the first thing that came to my mind when reading this story......
Here here!
Hundreds of documented instances of Pitbulls going from mushball to mauling killer for no apparent reason.
Eff that beady eyed, T-Rex jaw breed.
RE: “It would be a good idea to put them down here too... IMHO”
Say you’re sorry and stop mauling and killing innocent people:

Breed discrimination is archaic. It’s the owner not the dog. Give the pit bull love and the pit bull will give love 100x over.
You can be conservative and not have this be your #1 issue.

Kid, you cant be a Conservative and for abortion also...
Abortion is the first issue used to separate the Conservatives from the frauds...
Kill it. Kill it stone dead.
34 U.S. dog bite-related fatalities occurred in 2015. Despite being regulated in Military Housing areas and over 700 U.S. cities, pit bulls contributed to 82% (28) of these deaths. Pit bulls make up about 6.6% of the total U.S. dog population.2
Together, pit bulls (28) and rottweilers (3), the second most lethal dog breed, accounted for 91% of the total recorded deaths in 2015. This same combination also accounted for 76% of all fatal attacks during the 11-year period of 2005 to 2015. (Dogsbite.org)
As much as I love animals, I can’t get on the “save a pit bull bandwagon”. Sweet little puppies (who can also be dangerous) grow up into unpredictable death machines, and I’ve seen it first hand. I don’t want to hear about owners being the problem, either. They are genetically programmed to latch on (their massive jaws lock up) and kill. Period. Most of their victims are children, other animals, and elderly. I was a nurse in the ER long ago, when we had a 2 month old baby boy flown in, by helicopter, where the family dog (a pit bull pup)chewed/bit his penis off while his parents were playing cards in another room. I held that baby while he screamed and we called in specialty urologists to see if they could do anything for him. He was horribly disfigured. After seeing the damage, the father killed the puppy. Stupid, stupid people. Thankfully, the parents were not allowed in the ER, and the court appointed a guardian.
Abortion was the issue that got us ObamaCare.
National Right to Life was the organization that used it as a sledge hammer to force the House vote.
A. Not "people", she's one young lady, and a friend.
B. I don't know, but I know she's religious, which is more than you know about her.
C. She loves dogs, and so do I even though I'm allergic, so I'm sharing her message.
Does one issue stop you from helping with another issue?
