Columnist Lori Welbourne isn’t surprised that a recent piece she wrote in an attempt to debunk pit-bull myths and pro-pit-bull messaging received an onslaught of criticism. “They’re a really strong group, very well-funded, and they put out a call when these types of columns come out, to get people to react to them so the reactions can come from all over North America,” Welbourne said of the various pit -bull advocacy groups that abound.
