To raise awareness of the protection these dogs need from cruelty and abuse
PIT BULL
Burned, made to fight, betrayed and baited
I have no rights, my light
is fading
Sold and traded...
And I'm still waiting in this blood
soaked room
Lost, to evil hands and legislation
This life I have
knows no consolation
I'm living proof a pit bull doomed
Used abused, I
need a saviour
When will my bloodshed end?
When will my heartache
mend?
I'm only one but I...
Can't tell the world how long I've cried
Can't tell the world, I'm gonna die...
Oh I need a friend to take
this pain
Fight for me, trust in me
Truly see me for what I am
A
lonesome soul on a lonesome road
When will my bloodshed end?
When
will my heartache mend?
I'm only one but I...
Can't tell the world how
long I've cried
When will my bloodshed end?
When will my heartache
mend?
I'm only one but I...
Can't tell the world how long I've cried
Can't tell the world I'm gonna... die.

Sad, Crazy, Law was written to
send a strong message to UK politicians in order that we might speak up loudly
for breeds of dog under threat from the Dangerous Dogs Act, many of whom are
innocent family pets.
Thank you to Alison Green of DDA Watch for your
guidance in helping us to give voice to this issue.

PETITION, RESCUING
THE RESCUER'S
Rocky's rescuer's -
ANIMALS IN NEED, UK
Animals in Need are a rescue
organisation offering sanctuary to many abandoned animals each year. A
registered charity, they have operated in Liverpool UK for 18 years.
Now
the rescuers need rescuing.
With a strict spay/neuter policy for all
their own animals they also spend a great deal of time and finance working with
dogs and their owners within the community offering free neutering, chipping and
training to those in need. As a result they have prevented the birth of hundred
or even thousands of unwanted dogs.
During the "pit bull amnesty" of 2007
they offered free help and advice to owners caught up in the Dangerous Dogs Act
(DDA) 1991. To this day they still do all of the above.
However at the
end of 2007 the DDA turned to the rescuers as two of their dogs were accused of
being pit bull type. Then, in January 2008 a young dog was left abandoned and,
being a law abiding rescue they notified the authorities. Animals In Need were
then taken to court under section 4b of the DDA for three counts of possessing a
banned breed. The rescue refused to accept the first two dogs were "of type" and
funded a legal team and experts to defend the dogs. They won and both dogs were
deemed to be legal cross breeds and re-homed.
The rescue agreed with the
authorities on the type of the third dog, however having a strict non
destruction policy they funded experts and a legal team to ask the courts to
register the dog to Animals In Need. This was allowed and the dog’s life was
spared. She will live out her life under the care of Animals in Need who are the
ONLY rescue within the UK to currently own an exempted dog.
However the
nightmare was not over and at the end of 2008 the DDA struck again and a further
dog was accused of being a banned breed. Unlike the previous three dogs this one
was seized and removed to secure kennels pending court proceedings. Animals in
Need founder, Fran Ellis is now facing another charge of possessing an illegal
breed and with penalties that could include up to 6 months in prison, a £5000
fine and a criminal record.
Please support Animals in Need by signing
the petition.

It's time to rescue the rescuer's.
Sad, Crazy, Law
Dangerous dogs you got 'em all sewn up
From your high n' mighty offices you
pull out the stops
Go pick 'em up, go kill 'em off
Go clean up the
streets, go snuff out their lives
Knock on every door, carve tattoos on their
thighs
Go pick 'em up, go kill 'em off
Every pit bull 'type' every
family pet
Don't matter if they're innocent just get, get, get!
Go pick 'em
up, go kill 'em off
The law is the law and it can't be wrong
So put
another bullet in the 'bad' dog's bones
Go pick 'em up, go kill 'em off
Don't matter if the suicide's too sad...
Don't worry about the tears of
mum and dad...
Don't worry if the kiddies cry all day...
Your dog wagged
its tail but it's goin' to die today!
This is a sad, crazy law
It's
time to fight for justice, paw by paw
This is a sad, crazy law
What is it
all for? Don't drag my family to war...
Bang, bang, bang there's puppies
in the house
They're 'dangerous dogs' gotta put 'em all down!
Go pick 'em
up, go kill 'em off
Cute little face and a wiggle in the tail
Drag the
mother to the cage, breed specifically she's nailed!
Go pick 'em up, go kill
'em off
Bishop n' Bruce they had their heads in the noose
You couldn't
give a damn you just wanted 'em gone
Go pick 'em up, go kill 'em off
There's no sense at the top, you just give 'em all the chop
Give a dog a bad
name, it's the politicians game
Go pick 'em up, go kill 'em off.
Don't
matter if the suicide's too sad...
Don't worry about the tears of mum and
dad...
Don't worry if the kiddies cry all day...
Your dog wagged its tail
but it's goin' to die today!
This is a sad, crazy law
It's time to
fight for justice, paw by paw
This is a sad, crazy law
What is it all for?
Don't drag my family to war...
