For me, this boils down to 'outlawing' certain breeds. At the very least, it is thinly veiled class discrimination. Few people can afford that. One of my buddies has already tried to insure his pit bull. His homeowners insurance company said "Hell no". He called literally every insurance company in our town. No takers.

Now I wonder why that is? Normally insurance companies are pretty keen to take your money - do you think they know something?
