discrimination. If the government can ban a specific breed of dogs, then what is to stop the government from banning all breeds of dogs or punishing all canine owners? Will this lead to the government banning specific breeds of the human race? We often treat our beloved pets as one of us, basic human beings. Pit bulls fall into that category. Canine rescue operations and many pit bull owners claim that pit bulls are not aggressive. They are proven to be loyal and caring of their owners. These “unpredictable” dogs are said to be some of the most caring dogs out there. At one time, the pit bull was an American canine icon. The breed was desired because of its remarkable loyalty and affability(Flanagin). Pit bulls were stars. A pit bull named Sergeant Stubby won 13 decorations for his service in World War I.

People often claim their dog was wrongfully put to death. It was on the Nashville news the other…

well known as the Blue Book, helped standardize the Non-Commissioned Officers responsibilities and duties for corporals all the way up the ranks to Sergeant Major. In his book von Steuben wanted the American Non-Commissioned Officer to truly buy into the ideals he had set forth.
