If your dogs can kill an 11 year old boy, your dogs are at least as dangerous as a gun.
There are all kinds of guns you can own - you can’t just go out and get them.
If you want one of these monster dogs, it isn’t unreasonable to ask you to answer some pre screening questions, carry separate “dangerous dog” liability insurance and attend certified training courses to ensure your time bomb of a pet doesn’t kill someone’s child.
Failure to do so should come with severe criminal penalties.
This honestly shouldn’t be a difficult problem to solve. It seems entirely non-partisan. There’s no constitutional protection guaranteeing the right to own whatever stupid creature Joe Rogan turned you onto.
You can’t own a tiger - so clearly there exists a standard of pet that’s unacceptable.
Anything with a bite force over 300 psi requires more care and understanding on the part of the owner, and if you disagree, you shouldn’t own own an animal like that.
