petsmart charities awarded a $240,000 grant to the utah religious cult known as BEST FRIENDS. BFAS will use this money in their SAVING AMERICA'S GRIPPING DOG program. their strategy will be to target a handful of cities and inundate its citizens with pit bull propaganda in an effort to decrease dirt naps and get more gripping dogs into family homes. accomplishing this irresponsible goal is not possible with the pit bull's current image as a savage fighting dog, ie, the truth.
hillsborough county, florida is one of the four lucky recipients of the grant money. they have been hand picked to redefine the pit bull image and increase adoption rates and to decrease euthanasia by at least 10%. hillsborough county takes in over 7000 pit bulls each year. approximately half will be euthanized. the county need only save 350 pit bulls to earn that $60K check (assuming the grant is divided up equally). that comes to $171.42 for each pit bull.
hillsborough pit nutters say they will focus on community outreach. they will set up booths & workshops and pimp wiggle butts and wiggle butt trinkets to the gullible. in order to do this, they will have to rewrite history. tampabay.com provides a sample of the nutters' turd polishing agenda:
From the 1900s to 1970s, pit bull terriers reigned as the ideal family pet, historians say. The breed was the all-American poster dog for both World Wars. Obedient and kid friendly, pits popped up in middle and upper class households worldwide.Then ugly stories started to make the news. Illegal dogfighting. Children maimed.
never mind that those ugly mauling stories started to make the news in 1877 or that dog fighting rarely made the news prior to the 1970s because it was still LEGAL in many states and not taken seriously in other states. the nutters present this as if using pit bulls in dog fighting is a recent phenomenon.
be careful what you wish for petsmart. if BEST FRIENDS is successful, there could be a constitutional amendment replacing the bald eagle with america's gripping dogs. that might force you to re-open your doggie daycare doors to all that frankenmauling fun.
