Amnesty for Pit bulls not Mexicans

There is a a two week amnesty period for pit bull owners to surrender their dogs without penalty in KCK. Unfortunately, KCK politicos will soon find discover that dangerous owners and not any particular breed of dog will keep animal attacks at a relatively constant rate.

But we shouldn't let facts get in the way of a popular political gesture backed up by a media inspired frenzy. Just like illegal immigration, the war on drugs, sex predators, myspace hookups, the population bomb and other TV watching hysteria . . . I guess the only rational thing to do is act quickly so that the media can move along to something other story with frightening video footage that will scare people into making quick, ineffective gestures that rarely contribute to anything worthwhile.
