Cranston RI Mayor orders killing of pitbulls due to Bad Rep

[Guest Anonymous]

Mayor Stephen Laffey ordered mostly pitbulls to be euthanized because
of their "aggressive" nature. No temperment tests were given. Truth
is most of these dogs could have been taken in by rescue groups, such
as Defenders of Animals, and found loving homes. This was
irresponsible and unnecessary.

That's terrible. But, I couldn't get the link to open up... stupid computer of mine. A couple questions... were they fighting pits?? What other kind of breed(s) were euthanized?? What city was this in???

And these dogs they ordered destroyed - where did they come from, or did he just want a bunch of current family pets euthanized?
