Amazing pictures from a rescuer who went into the city!

My thoughts for the day:
What is the most ethical thing to do with all of the confiscated fighting pit bulls? Obviously it would be wrong to return a dog that shows signs of being used for fighting to their owner, but the alternative - euthanasia - is pretty sickening, too. I know some of these dogs would be adoptable to a knowledgeable home with no kids, no cats, probably no other dogs...but those homes are too few and far between. What a sad situation.
Why are the breed rescuers encountering so much resistance? It makes so much more sense for a breed rescue that is expert in that breed's needs, behaviors, and special health considerations, to help the rescued dogs or cats of that breed. Why are they having to fight tooth and nail to do so?
I want to quit my job right now and leave and go back to Louisiana. Reading about it and seeing the pictures and wishing I were still there to help is driving me nuts.
