I would imagine there would be exclusions and exceptions to the rule if this were ever to see the light of day… But IMOP… the article is nothing more then a wake call to pet owners… hopefully a few will see the real message… Pet owners need to be accountable for the actions of their dogs.
Children have a right to ride their bikes… joggers have a right to jog without being savagely attacked by said “domesticated” animals.

This concept is great, and will work just like gun control. Here are the steps:
1: Enact a law aimed at people who could care less about the rule of law, but make sure that the law either confiscates tangible property or money from people who obey the law.
2: Prevent the courts from punishing people who violate the law. Just like gun offenders.
Net result-the state will be up on cash, and the number of bites won't go down.
I'd think Mr. Kass would be familiar with the arrangement-Chicago has some of the tightest gun control laws in the United States, and numbers among the highest handgun homicide rates. He even admits that the people he's talking about can't be reasoned with. Meanwhile, I'll have the unique privilege of giving the government another $1,000, and getting another crass bureaucrat involved in my private affairs. I can't wait.

Captain Pedden,
You are absolutely right. Write this bum and email, I did. I basically told him as professionally as I could, that he was an idiot and he should pay his 1000 dollars a year to the government so he can have some piece of mind. Punish everyone for the irresponsibility of a few. What a moron!

I knew we were in trouble up here... Three attacks in a week will have every bleeding heart idiot proposing asinine schemes to "save the children" $1000 dollar fee... Jack Kass must live in Lake Forest. BSl is bad enough but now a huge fee for owning anything bigger that a drop kick dog. I really should move down south, at least there the crazy people will get you drunk.
