President Obama Speaks Out Against BSL
Posted on: August 22, 2013 - 10 Comments
The President himself has condemned BSL in an official White House response titled "Breed-Specific Legislation is a Bad Idea." Despite staggering research that shows BSL is ineffective and does not have a positive impact on public safety, there are still fierce proponents of such legislation. The White House has adopted the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's stance on BSL, which states that a community-based approach is more effective than breed bands.
