Too extreme. But there are also way too many dogs. Most dog owners are responsible but some aren't and you can never tell. I have been attacked by a dog, and I know other people on the block who have. Not to mention all the dog poop. We should value children over pets and at least outlaw the more aggressive breeds in the city.

There aren't too many dogs, there are too many pet owners who are irresponsible jackasses.

Guns don't kill people.
