HOW many more people and animals have to be mutilated and killed before dangerous dogs are banned from the ownership of idiots?
In every street in the country you can see predictable stereotypes parading a couple of dangerous dogs as some kind of substitute for carrying a dangerous weapon.
Any sensible government would have put a stop to this nonsense when it first became a fashionable macho statement.
Where is the RSPCA? Where is the Dogs’ Trust?
Why are they not campaigning to stop such animals getting into the hands of these people?
Why is the Government not legislating against ownership of dangerous dogs as they would ownership of dangerous weapons?
Finally and more importantly, why are the police not harassing dangerous dog owners in the same way they harass motorists?
Well we already know the answer to that question – the police are only interested in soft targets.
If any emergency service needed a complete overhaul, it was the highest-paid but least effective of them all.
