IN DEFENSE OF THE PIT BULL
By anybody's reckoning, Joshua Holland is a credible
writer... with sufficient ethos to publish (quite prolifically) in Alternet, Salon, Moyers & Friends, etc. He is a producer
of a digital magazine, radio host, and author of what many consider erudite books. I disagree with
him on many issues, but I am also a fan. That's a rare occurrence for me, I am not much into fandom - although, I am also a
fan of Bill Moyers - a truly wise and objective journalist.
I don't know how I missed this last year, but here is an
article by Joshua in Salon. He calls them as he sees them. Personally, I would have picked the picture of an American Pit Bull Terrier, not one of these design dogs, but maybe that's his point. "They are just dogs."
I enjoyed the article and I hope you will, too.
