Lots of us love All DOGS and it helps to be aware how we can help prevent discrimination and increase community education.

That's a great start...and I'm glad there are people out there trying to change things for the better concerning the breeds people fear and loathe. Unfortunately, there are still so many people out there who will continue to discriminate against certain breeds because they believe media hype, had a bad experience with a particular breed, and/or don't understand that low-life owners out there intentionally train certain breeds to attack and fight instead of training them to be friendly, loving, well-behaved dogs. Until pet stores, byb's and ignorant "oops, my dog is knocked-up and now I have to find homes for all these puppies" people stop placing these breeds in the wrong hands, the general mindset will not be swayed.
