Ypsilanti Township, MI: Council may discuss breed-specific MSN, Oct 19

[StopBSL]

<p>Ypsilanti Township city council may consider breed-specific MSN during their Oct. 19 council meeting at 7:00 PM at in the Civic Center Board Room, 7200 S. Huron River Drive, Ypsilanti Township.</p>
<p>Remember, breed-specific mandatory spay/neuter is breed-specific legislation. It carries all the same flaws and moral dilemmas as any other type of breed-specific law. It is difficult to enforce, does not improve public safety, and results in the needless death of pets.</p>
<p>And, once you allow a municipality to identify a “pit bull” for mandatory spay/neuter (something which cannot actually be done in a fair or scientific manner), that municipality has the ability to identify a “pit bull” for additional restrictions. One Ypsi resident makes a telling statement: “We’re not saying get rid of them, yet. And that’s another ordinance that could come up.”</p>
