Not baseless at all. https://www.statista.com/statistics/303563/shoplifting-in-england-and-wales-uk-y-on-y/

Yes, wouldn't want to point out your double standards now would we? You can never prevent it. Dogs of all breeds and sizes have been attacking humans in public for centuries. But in terms of reducing it, the one about keeping dogs under control in public would be a start. Because clearly, this is not happening. I've had personal experience in the UK of dogs in parks attacking my dog (which was on a lead) and the owner then complaining when his dog suffered a wound. Maybe the police could actually get out and do some real world policing instead of focusing on veterans posting memes on social media?

Because the chances are, they would. https://www.statista.com/statistics/303563/shoplifting-in-england-and-wales-uk-y-on-y/

Probably didn't want to get stabbed for 10 pounds an hour. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/met-police-asda-security-guard-stabbed-stepney-london-b1192316.html

Hardly a threat to society. Hyperbolic much? 😄 Presumably you would apply the same logic to, let's say, Ooh I don't know - religions that are proven through experience and statistics to be a genuine threat to civilized society via deadly terrorist attacks? Or will you suspend your use of statistics and continue to be an apologist for that?

I guess that depends on what atrocities you commit in the name of your "God". It's quite fitting that you would ask such a question on the 10 year anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo attacks though. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8ew0lzggr7o

Some truth to the health issue part. I have 6 "Thai dogs" and an American PitBull Terrier on our farm. I have far more behavioural issues from the Thai dogs than I do the "PitBull". The PitBull is also a far superior vermin killer to the Thai dogs. Snakes, Tookay, JinJok, Mice, Pigeons. He takes them all out for fun. He's also a superior deterrent for some of the "less than stellar" individuals that every Thai village seems to have one or two of.

I guess some people enjoy defending the indefensible. One of those "Debate Society" types. 😄

You've obviously never owned a farm.

The term Liberal is an oxymoron these days. Not many people are less liberal than the self declared Liberals. Or more hypocritical. They claim to want diversity but attack anyone who disagrees with them. People who claim to be feminists yet defend a religion that routinely treats women as second class citizens, or often much worse. People who claim to want racial equality but support opportunities being given/denied based on race. People who defend the rights of a bloke to put on a dress and beat the living daylight out of a woman in a boxing ring. A strange phenomenon indeed.

Arrested? 😄 Then what? I can guarantee they won't be sentenced to a single day in jail. And why should they? It's not like they committed a serious crime like being "grossly offensive" on X.

Laws tend to be reactive. You can't punish someone before they have done something wrong (unless it's a plot to harm, which is in itself doing something wrong). Sounds pretty sinister to me... How can you remove the possibilty of an animal harming someone? Labradors kill people. Small dogs maim children. Cattle/horses escape and cause fatal car accidents. It's dangerous out there. You wouldn't ban EV trucks because of the recent terrorist attack in New Orleans. What would you propose? Euthanizing dogs over a certain height/weight out of existence? Just the breeds you don't like? Dogs that "look mean"? Dogs owned by "certain demographics"? No, I stand by my opinion. Educate, and enforce existing laws.

What about when a dog of another type kills or injures someone? Are you suggesting a 2 tier justice system based on the breed of dog?

Actually I am both. The two things tend to be mutually inclusive. A bit like being left wing and envious/vindictive. 😄

I gave you my ideas. Did you not like the idea of enforcing laws and educating people?

"Nasty dogs"? 😆 Awwww, are you more of a Labradoodle type of person? That must make you much nicer than all those "Nasty people" 😄. Just an example of a recent campaign. I would have chosen one that wasn't dripping with Wokeness but I honestly can't think of any. 😄 Such a campaign could be useful when it comes to educating people and their misconceptions/stereotypes and illogical fears about "nasty dogs", based on ignorance and blind consumption of a Red Top media frenzy.

You mean like showing support for violent, tyrannical, murderous regimes?

Stop chasing their tails with the flawed policy of breed specific legislation and properly enforce the laws that are already in place. Perhaps an awareness campaign. Instead of Premier League footballers being railroaded into wearing rainbow armbands and shoelaces they could have a responsible dog ownership campaign at Premier league grounds? Responsible dog ownership month? Big Dogs Matter? Let's promote the diversity, inclusion and equity of all dog owners and breeds...

Indeed. Just the prospect of a Trump administration has a lot of the cowards making their excuses and calling for a taxi. Let's hope Starmer is taking note.

The Met police rarely investigate real crimes like burgulary or theft. They've pretty much legalized shoplifting below a certain amount. Much easier sitting in a warm office (or maybe working from home) dunking chocolate Digestives into luke warm tea and scrolling X for posts by the working class that aren't sufficiently Woke.

Exactly. These lefty hand wringers are in fact enablers of the hate and intolerance that they claim to oppose. Essentially, apologists for hate in the name of diversity.

Well, obviously by praising the Iranian regime and specifically Khomeini. Maybe you could do a bit of research on that regime and his hero that he is so quick to publicly praise. It's a bit like me praising the communist party of Kampuchea and saying Pol Pot was a terriffic bloke due to his relentless promotion of farming, but I am in no way promoting genoicidal dictatorships and vehemently resent such an accusation. 😆

I guess you missed this part? Dr. Adrees, in a 2017 article for *Islam Today* following his trip to Tehran, lauded the Iranian regime and the late Supreme Leader Ruhollah Khomeini. He praised the Iranian Revolution as a movement that led the nation to its destiny, speaking favorably about the republic's respect for minorities, despite reports of executions for blasphemy during that period.

Welcome to the UK. Cue lots of excuses about a difficult childhood, some Liberal hand wringing, followed by a slap on the wrist. They need the cells for social media posters.

This guy unwittingly provides an excellent synopsis of why multi culturalism has failed. Especially when Islam is introduced into the mix.
