I doubt that ohio incident really had much to do with it, with the exception of bringing some public attention to it. And PETA/HSUS are always behind any ban on pet ownership, whether they started it or not. Its one of PETA's founding principles. I wish I could hear what gets said behind closed doors in political allies when theses bans are proposed and debated by PETA, HSUS, PIJAC, USARK, etc...
