While a breed-ban seems to make sense, there is no evidence to support its efficacy. There have been breed-bans effected in many municipalities and there has been no observed change in such things as: rate of dog-bite incidents, rate of hospitalization for dog-bite incidents, or rate of fatal dog-bite incidents.
As there is no scientific evidence to support breed-bans, I oppose them as needless government intervention. Show me data that supports their effectiveness for the desired outcome and I will support them.
