Ginger, can you tell me the point of posting a story PUBLISHED ON JANUARY 5, 2006, and saying that "the hysteria continues to spread." With all due respect, I think YOU are the one who's hysterical. Lone Tree did pass its pit bull ban. Parker's town council voted unanimously to defeat the ban. Centennial strengthened its dangerous dog laws as did Lakewood. Neither passed BSL. I believe Lafayette is still debating the issue. Members of the Rocky Mountain and Pike's Peak clubs have worked hard to educate the public and the councilmen in a number of jurisdictions and except for Lone Tree, we've been mostly successful. I just don't see what you hoped to accomplish by printing this OLD news. What was the motto? Encourage not discourage??
