You could read the article...

Is that allowed?

It always seemed like cheating to me.

Substitute the word “gun” for “pit bull” and what you have is a standard liberal bit of bed wetting.

Did you read through to the end? I found a kind of reluctant acceptance of the possibility that the British breed ban was not working and that dangerous dogs of many different breeds could not be touched by animal control, because they weren;t on the government’s clearly delineated list of ‘inherently vicious’ dogs.

Some food for thought for those that like to cite the UK’s BSL.

If pit bulls are not dangerous then explain the attack I witnesses of a young pitbull (owned by a young woman, not a street punk thug) against a 10 year old female Lab which did nothing to provoke the attack by the pit. The young woman had the pit bull off leash and was playing with her pit. Then, when they were walking back towards the playground BBQ/bathroom area of this neighborhood park, the pit (still off leash) attacked the lab which was sitting next to her owner and not even looking at the pit. Not dangerous? My @ss.

Why? Because you want me to change my opinion regarding pit bulls? Not going to happen.

No, because you had expressed an interest in GB's BSL.
Sorry to have bothered you.

“Seems to have worked out well in England.”

” What? You saying that the breed wasn’t banned in England? Funny, but a very close family friend from England would disagree.”

“As far as England, the ban is in place. Just because some people have ignored that ban doesn’t mean it isn’t working.”

“Yep, just as much laughter as from the people in England whose Pit Bull attacks someone and then they have to face the penalty for owning a banned animal that has injured someone. Yes, indeed. Lots of laughs. What a moron. Go make out with your demon spawn.”

Strike a bell?
Anyway as I said, sorry to have bothered you.
It won’t happen again

So, because I made a comment regarding the GB ban that means I have an interest in it? I’ve also made comments regarding pedophiles on other threads. Would that mean I have an interests in them? You need to know that I have a firm opinion regarding pit bulls - as well as those who own this breed and do not respect the rights of others to not be mauled or killed by their dog. Someone’s belief that the English ban isn’t working isn’t going to change my opinion regarding this breed.

When it comes to this breed, or other similar breeds, I’ll be ready to aim with something that has a little more kick than my hand. Yes, I understand your meaning.

Does it affect your opinion regarding the UK’s breed ban, at all?
