X2 on the sky is falling. Most government will often "borrow" ordinances and/or laws that are already "tested."
Yes, bad laws are still passed, but a majority of these laws are quickly overturned.
RE: Pit Bulls, It is NOT a matter of if the dog is "good" or "bad," or if the owner is "good" or "bad."
The facts are that the very design and construction of a Pitt Bulls bite, and it's nature to fight, perfected over hundreds of years of breeding, is to lead to much more damage when it does bite. That's what they were bred for. Just like a Labrador Retriever is breed to retrieve water fowl with a "soft" mouth and love water, or herding breeds are designed to herd and protect farm animals.
