Massachusetts Dolts

I love dogs, well most dogs.  There are some dogs which just don’t fit in.  You know the ones, those dogs whose supposed masters are not actually masters, but rather puppets on the wrong end of the leash.  You see these “masters” being pulled down the sidewalk, or, hollering up a storm for Fido to sit, stay, heel or come, commands which no matter how loudly or often are hollered, Fido simply does not comply with.

In Massachusetts, there must be a plethora of bad masters, as the following indicates.

State legislators will hold a hearing later this month on whether to outlaw pit bulls, though Walsh said lawmakers hope to look into broader issues regarding dog safety.

And this.

Meanwhile, state Rep. Martin Walsh is howling mad about dogs running wild inside moving cars and is considering filing legislation requiring drivers to buckle up their canines. “When I drive down the road and I see a dog running around the car, particularly on the lap and front seat, that’s crazy,” said the Dorchester Democrat.

Beyond bad masters, why is Massachusetts considering banning pitbulls?

“You can’t allow people to be afraid all the time,” said Avril T. Elkort, vice chairwoman of the Canton Board of Selectmen, where a new ordinance limits residents to one pit bull per household. “It was a public safety issue.”

Additionally, Massachusetts State Rep Vincent A. Pedone chimes in with these moronic words regarding pitbulls.

State Rep. Vincent Pelone (sic) said the state may consider either banning pit bulls outright or requiring owners to get training or a dangerous dog license.

“If you want to own a pit bull, which in my estimation can be the same as owning a weapon, the owner and the dog should receive training,” said the Worcester Democrat.

I think that the individuals living in Massachusetts would be better served by muzzling their supposed political representatives.  What dolts.
