You can’t in Texas“) that slanders innocent bully breeds, shows the picture of a Labrador or shepherd insinuating that it is a “pitbull,” and highlights the seeming ease with which a town in Colorado passed a “pitbull” ban last month, we can smell the conspiracy in the air. And really why should the bought-off media, the animal rights groups, or politicians change tack when it has been so easy, in some places, to negate 14th amendment rights to life, liberty, and property, to equal protection, and due process under the law?? And what is local and state government’s vehicle for taking away inalienable rights? Hysteria and the slander of innocent breeds of dog by the local media, which, you have to admit is pretty base. Indeed, the time of the newspaper as watchdog is long gone. It’s more accurate to say that the media is now complicit in the conspiracies they ought to be exposing.
