Nothing but propaganda from the Humane Society of the United States That's what he's paid to do, and that's what he does.

Goodwin, HSUS's 'issues expert' on dogfighting has just one mission: get HSUS propaganda in front of the public. Hint for journalism students: take those HSUS press releases for what they're worth. It ain't necessarily so if it comes from the Humane Society of the United States People phone in complaints about each other's dogs because they're mad at each other. The idea that a couple of 'pit bulls' tethered in someone's backyard means that they are dogfighters is bullshit. Its kind of like Goodwin's continued fixation with New York being the 'dogfight capital of the world.' citizens that own pit bulls have civil rights. citizens from unreasonable search and seizure.Д®ven U. ConstitutionД«y building a case for making the simple ownership of more than one pit bull prima facie evidence of dogfighting, Goodwin begins the process of dismantling the civil rights of all dog owners. They have been indoctrinated with the belief that the mere presence of several tethered pit bulls means a crime has been committed. Not yet, at least.Д«ut Goodwin's Army of Snitches doesn't know, and won't care, about the law. No searches because John Goodwin says a couple of dogs in someone's backyard is a bad thing. Under the law, there can be no fishing expeditions. A search warrant requires probable cause. Goodwin doesn't mention it, of course, but no lawful search of private property can be conducted without ' probable cause ' - a reasonable belief that a person has committed a crime. That could be a sign that a dog-fighting ring is working in the area.

People should call police if they see several pit bulls kept on chains in someone's yard, said.
