Ginger Cleary,Rome, GA ww.rihadin.com <http://www.rihadin.com> Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it. ~Thomas Paine Member GSDCA Member Sawnee Mtn Kennel Club GA Director Responsible Dog Owners of the Eastern States. -----Original Message----- ******************* http://wjz.com/topstories/local_story_122164332.html Baltimore County Councilman Vince Gardina wants to create a database of pit bull owners...like they do with sex offenders. "If a sex offender is in the neighborhood, you know he's there. If a person has a pit bull, the neighbors should know it." (http://wjz.com/topstories/local_story_122164332.html) If you have a moment, please contact Councilman Gardina and respectfully express your disappointment at the inappropriate comparison of pit bull owners to sex offenders.
