American Pit Bull Terrier: should they be forbidden?
Public consultations to amend the animal control regulations were launched on Saturday by the Minister of Public Security Martin Coiteux. A few hours before the start of the consultation committees on the bill to supervise dangerous dogs like American Pitbull Terrier, he refused to pledge to ban the American Pit Bull Terrier like the province of Ontario and many other countries already did. Have he forget something?
I don’t know. However, let me tell you that I find a little bit ironic that those public consultations were launched only one day after that a pitbull's owner name Karim Jean-Gilles gets an exemplary sentence of four years of prison for criminal negligence causing injury because his pitbull dog, that was walking in a public space in the park of Brossard, have brutally bit, without any apparent reasons, in the face a seven years old young girl name Vanessa Biron. Like many people, her father fears that pitbull will makes new victims.
A second thing, we can note that those dangerous dogs are fighters; it is even inside their genetic. The words used by Fredric Labbé, dog handler are proving it: “Often, what we forget is that they some are born to be fighting dogs.” Behind that danger, don’t you think that an human’s life is more important that a dog’s one?
When walking in the streets, I found out a lot of senior persons scared of dogs. Here is an example : “I am afraid of going to some parks because I fear the young people who frequent the place with their pitbull.” report an old lady. The statistics could explain her feelings:“ In the United States of America, 71% of the deaths due to a dog in 2017 were due to a pit bull.” Isn’t proving that some dangerous dog are a risk for the public safety?
For a bill to supervise dangerous dogs at the benefit of the children, the seniors persons and the safety in the public space, will we need deaths?
