Well if you train a dog to be vicious don't complain when it is vicious. Clearly another case of an idiot owner. I feel sorry for the dog ending up in the hands of someone like that. Even before he killed it for trying to help him.

I wouldn't consider a Staffordshire Bull Terrier or American Stafforshire Terrier to be a Pitbull. To me, the only breed that is a PitBull is an American PitBull Terrier. But yes it is a very broad term that different people use differently to cover any number of breeds. So when you are comparing a group of breeds to single breeds the stats are meaningless. It's like lumping all Japanese car brands together and then comparing their crash stats to a BYD Atto 3. An American Bully is not a PitBull. People might consider it one, but they are wrong. It's no more PitBull than an English Bulldog.

Fortunately there is no shortage of overpaid, unelected, authoritarian technocrats in the EU to carry out such a task.

I guess therapy dogs should be killed?

Your friend was clearly an idiot. A dog that attacks an animal that the owner is also clearly trying to kill is completely different to a dog attacking a member of the family. The dog would have considered himself to be helping the owner. Protecting him. Chaining dogs up outside is also stupid. They need to live within a family, especially Staffys (nicknamed the nanny dog due to it's excellent nature with children). There were 3 animals present that day, unfortunately the one who survived was the stupidest of the lot.

This thread is an excellent example why stats for "PitBull" attacks appear high. Mis-identification. These dogs were American Bullys. Yet everyone on the thread is talking about PitBulls. So much ignorance I really shake my head sometimes. Look at the snout, the body type, the mouth, the legs. Looks nothing like a "PitBull" (assuming people using that broad term mean American PitBull Terrier) to anyone with a modicum of knowledge about the breed. When you classify multiple different breeds of dog as a PitBull it's no wonder the stats look high. It's like blaming BMW's for accidents every time a German car crashes. Ignorance.

I love it when they compete the look with a gold chain nestling just above the cleavage. Goes together like beer and pork scratchings. Classy stuff.

That's because you need at least 4 of them in quick succession to survive 90 minutes of turgid football. Keeping Ten Hag because he won the FA Cup was a huge mistake. They were awful against Liverpool, could have been 5 or 6. I predict a similar league position to last year. Top 6 if lucky.

Depends what you mean by racing exhaust. A proper aftermarket system like Yoshimura or Temignoni can increase performance if you adjust the ECU, air filter etc. as well. Power gains are minimal though, it's normally more about weight savings, looks and sound. But putting a locally made 1500 Baht can on a Honda Grom will likely make no difference. Maybe even make it run worse due to lack of back pressure.

I'm sure Thailand will agree to everything if it is financially beneficial to do so. However, after 17 years working for corporations here, I have found that just because Thais agree to follow laid out rules and regulations does not mean that they will. When managers from HQ come here and lay out the rules, it's normally a case of "Absolutely Sir, Goodbye Sir, have a great trip and see you again na khap" followed by "right, let's get back to normal" 5 minutes after the car heads to the airport. The EU will have a tough time trying to control and regulate everything Thailand does, as they will undoubtedly will want to do.

Good to see Aussie police taking it seriously. The UK police did their best to ignore the Rotherham grooming gangs, and were only finally shamed into taking minor action by some well known public figures. Got to see Australia mostly has one tier policing. Unlike the UK.

Best just focus on the right wing media then. Oh wait a minute, they're already doing that.

Fair play? Nothing fair about letting men compete against women. It's pretty much the definition of unfair. Time to stop gaslighting on this issue and tell it how it is.

Sounds like a true man of the people. Like many #bekind Labour hypocrites.

Not really. It's not like a 9-5. Just a few days a month, chauffered to and from events, luxury hotels. Plenty of holidays at incredible places. She just couldn't take being number 2 to Catherine in every regard (rank, beauty, popularity, charisma). That's her fault. I don't believe for a moment that she wasn't given significant assistance. Nor do I believe she's never googled Harry like she claimed. Laughable lies. Yes, and quite a nasty piece of work judging by his vitriolic book.

Just another Biden failure. One of many. The guy couldn't run a bath let alone a country.

She has messed it up spectacularly. From royalty, a life of privilge and public adoration to fake royal tours and flogging dog biscuits on her stupidly named website. She is also one of the most derided women on the planet, being ridiculed on South Park amongst others. Labeled a ******* grifter by the boss of Spotify. Multiple projects that never got off the ground. Netflix/Spotify deals about to be/already cancelled. She's a busted flush and it wouldn't surprise me if they try to weasel their way back into the Royal Family within 3 years. She has been exposed as the lying narcissist that she is. Harry got played, the dimwit.

You are an excellent example of someone so extreme leftist and vocal that you actually drive people to the right. I want expecting validation so quickly but thanks anyway.

Great point. Haven't heard anything about trans issues for years 😆

Agree. Same in Europe. When the centre right let them down and then the left make it even worse people will hold their nose vote far right. It's their only choice. I fear the worst and am very happy to be in the relative sanity of Thailand, a country that protects its borders and culture like many in the East. That's why the East is rising and the west is failing. I remember a philippino colleague in bangkok saying to me in his typically no nonsense fashion" you know the trouble with the West you're too f'in liberal". I agreed.

Another case of ignoring huge problems and deflecting to minority issues. Ageing transgenders? Yes let's focus on that while people can't pay their mortgage and pay their bills due to rampant inflation.

What a surprise the Guardian are also gaslighting about it 😄. Nothing to see here. Shut up and accept it or we will call you racist and far right. The left are creating huge problems labelling normal people far right. I predict it will backfire. Self fulfilling prophecy.

That's the trouble. The left have overreached so far that people will vote far right just to teach them a lesson. It's the politics of division. We need more moderates or I fear the worst.

2 have died now following the Notting Hill riots. Not much focus on that. Nobody rushed through the courts and jailed to unusually long sentences within a week. How many died at the so called "far right" riots? How many stabbings and sexual assaults? But the mythical far right are the problem. Notting Hill was simply a marvellous celebration of diversity marred by a few unfortunate incidents. Yeah right... Two tier policing. 2 tier Britain. 2 tier reporting from the MSM. Gaslight all you want. Everyone can see it.

Also known as the "call out hypocrisy" stance.
