OP Passes pit bull ban
 

They just said on channel 9 news that this passed.

I guess my question is, what the hell good is a pit bull anyway?
There was a baby here in Omaha that had his genitals bit off by one. Ever since I heard this story I agree with any law banning them from communities.

So it will be really bad if you let your Pitbull smoke in a bar in OP.

Ah, damn. Wait till Big Daddy sees this. ROFL

Now with no PitBulls-OP is the best place in the world to live. Gods Country.

I don't think its the dogs fault, I think its the owners fault. Try banning the people who have a history of mean dogs from having one, or make people have to pass a background check, a lot of these horrible incidents are from the dogs of people trying to hide things they do which are illegal.

My grandparents old next-door neighbors had a pitbull who was meaner than hell. My cousin and I fed him a porkchop once and he was nice to us from then on, until the guy got busted for selling crack out of his basement (which explains the mean pit bull).

Though I have heard that pit bulls have 4 times as much biting pressure in their jaw than any other dog (boxer comes second closest I think). So maybe the severity of the incidents will go down, but the occurance of them won't.

Moooo

It's not the dogs fault. It's how their raised. The point is most communities are trying to ban agressive dogs period. Next they'll go after Chows, then Rottweilers, then Dobermans, then Shepards ect. ect. ect. It's like smoking bans they don't know when to stop. It's like people elect the most pussified people to run their towns. It's sickening. :shake: :cuss:

we looked at this awesome house on a culdesac in Lees Summit... beautiful house and really good price... however, next door was two pitbulls in back yard. Since, we want to do a daycare... heh. Deal breaker.

In Waterloo (IA), a pit knocked an old lady down and shredded her smaller dog. The pit will not be executed because he is normally a "good dog" and probably thought the smaller dog "was a toy."

That is the pit bull quirk. They go into "hulk mode" and freak out over weird things. They'll hear someone yell and freak out, or something like that.

A lot of dogs do that too, but the capability of a pit bull makes it a lot more dangerous.

Moooo

I don't like pits,
and for the most part I do think it's the owners fault,
no offense to the pit supporters here , but there are the jack holes who wanna big tough dog...

I am a german shepard owner and they bite a lotta people to...

and you know if the ban one breed for biting

When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

When they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

When they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

When they came for the Jews,
I did not speak out;
I was not a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out.

same sorta idea

Is Big Daddy dead or something? This thread has been up for a couple hours and no rant.

If anyone watches Dog Whisperer , you know that Pitbulls are always uncontrollable except for one person.............Caesar Milan.

Most of the PitBulls weren't being abused. They are just stupid beasts that don't listen to anyone.

It is still pretty early in California.

Bravo!

I live and work in OP and will be sending kudos to all the council people who supported this measure. There are pleny of other locations (how about Tonganoxie) where people can live if the MUST own pitbulls. :clap:
