Animal Advocates Radio ”Voices Carry for Animals #324 - MCABSL- HELP STOP BSL!

Hosted by Debbie Dahmer
Guests will be:  Dahlia Canes- Director and Founder for the Miami Coalition Against Breed Specific Legislation
http://mcabsl.com/
https://www.facebook.com/MiamiCoalition/
TOPIC: Polk County Fl. shelter not allowing the adoptions of Pit bulls. UPDATE: MCABSL and how you can help out to REPEAL BSL in Miami. The ordinance was enacted in 1989
The Miami Coalition Against Breed Specific Legislation (MCABSL) is a non-profit organization in the State of Florida. Its mission is to eradicate Breed Specific Legislation (BSL) implementing education and awareness. BSL is a form of canine genocide, discriminating a specific breed of dog based solely on physical characteristics and myths. It is fueled by ignorance and fear.
MCABSL’s main goal is to lift the Miami Pit Bull Ban that is responsible for the thousands of innocent dogs killed by this hideous ordinance. The ordinance was enacted in 1989 as a result of an alleged Pit Bull attacking a small girl. The knee jerk reaction taken by the Miami Dade County Commission at that time was to Ban Pit Bulls in the county. This led to a slaughtering of all American Staffordshire Terriers, American Staffordshire Bull Terriers, the American Pit Bull Terriers and their mixes. 
These sentient beings are voiceless on their own but their undying plea is being heard worldwide by the likes of MCABSL!

TOPIC: Animal Abuse and Domestic Violence - How the Court System handles it
In April 2011 a dog named Desmond, a beautiful boxer/pit bull mix, was adopted from a shelter in New Haven, CT 
March 11, 2012. Desmond’s body is found in a trash bag in the woods. He is emaciated. He is bruised. He is dead. On March 15, 2012, a necropsy reveals that Desmond’s stomach was empty except for fragments of plastic, gauze and fabric. He had broken teeth and hemorrhages on his stomach, ribs, and head. This group, led by a former volunteer shelter worker, Micah, who had been Desmond’s caretaker, formed what was then known as “Justice For Desmond”.
Desmond’s body was found having been brutally murdered by his adoptor and was arrested and confessed to the killing in May 2012.
Desmond's Army seek to raise public awareness regarding laws as they relate to animals and the statistical connection between animal abuse and domestic violence
“Desmond's Law” – Public Act 16-30 enacted into law on October 1, 2016.
