      Think it's pretty short sighted to think that America and UK are really all that different culturally. These are laws that are being passed across the west right now, so it clearly isn't just a UK problem. People of all classes and races own every dog breed, just like people of all classes and races do pretty much everything. But the information we have available on Pitbull owners say that they're predominantly black or latine. These regulations come with enforcement, which yes, would mean people driving around to look for Pitbulls. I mean how the fuck do TV licenses get enforced, right? Saying that laws come with no active enforcement is willfully ignorant on a board like Hexbear.

      Also, British colonialism is one of the key cornerstones of American race issues. Y'all literally had people nuke the economy to dunk on the rest of Europe for liking brown people. To suggest that the UK doesn't have another strain of typical western race issues is also willfully ignorant. This is literally the point of casually racist laws, to give people plausible deniability because it's really actually about keeping people safe from trashy dog owners, ignoring that those "trashy dog owners" are predominantly minorities according to the information we have. This is another law to send people around neighborhoods, looking for people to ruin their days.

      Also, you suggesting that the dogs won't be killed. Pitbulls are getting banned on the island. What the fuck else are they going to do, deport them to Australia? If they're a pitbull, they're automatically classified as a dangerous dog under this act. So yes, they're going to drive around neighborhoods and look for dogs to put down. If you want a pitbull ban, say it with your chest. You are supporting the government killing people's dogs. To try to deflect with "only the dangerous ones" will be killed when the legislation says pitbulls are dangerous means you either don't understand what you're saying, or you do and are just intentionally dishonest.
