Debra Boswell of Mississippi Animal Rescue League (MARL, a shelter) just recently opted to kill the 24 “rescued” Pit Bulls from a shoddy situation in Utica, rather than actually rescue them, and this decision was all admittedly based on the lies spread by Colleen Lynn and her anti-Pit Bull website, DogsBite.org.
^This, taken from a statement made by Boswell, clearly embraces the shit sandwich that hatemongers like Colleen Lynn have made a career out of serving. None of the dogs were assessed. Any attempts at any kind of rehabilitation apparently wasn’t considered. They just killed the dogs, and then put out their vaguely damaging diatribe that essentially leaves you wondering what is going to happen to any future Pit Bull-type dog that finds itself in her shelter, especially now after seeing her embrace the misinformation peddled by the likes of Lynn.
^And then there’s this gem, towards the end, that looks like PETA actually wrote it themselves. Debra, no, euthanasia isn’t a “kind” or a “good” death. Euthanasia means kill. Don’t fluff up language. You think that you “saved” the dogs by killing them? I think that you’re misinformed. You killed the dogs. They won’t “suffer again” because you killed them. They’re gone now, dead. That’s why they won’t have the potential to ever suffer again, nor will they have the potential to never suffer again and live and actually be happy with someone who loves them–because you took their lives and you killed them. And now you’re justifying your actions by parading around bullshit statistics from a website that was created solely for the purpose of demonizing any dog that remotely resembles a “Pit Bull.” That’s what you did.
