Hazel Park has had BSL for “pit bulls” for years. They have now passed an amendment that bans any new “pit bulls” from the city. Current “pit bulls” can stay, but only if they are registered with the city by Feb 1, 2012 (and of course, subject to the breed restrictions already in place).

Stop BSL 
That is the most unbeieveable thing I’ve ever heard in along time. It is NOT the dog it is the owners, the bred of American Staffshire Terriers also known as “PITT BULLS” are the most friendly, loving dogs I’ve ever had. He is friends with everyone he meets including other dogs! He is AWESOME with all 4 of my grandchildren!!! Again it’s not the bred it’s the owners!
I agree! I live In the city of Newaygo Michigan there is a similer ordinace in place.
