I'm fascinated to hear what you think the value of a childs life is?

Fair enough, the classifications would have to be more complex. I'm not sure that "keep" describes the relationship with cats. :? Balanced against the cost of people who get mauled or killed? No one said it would be easy, the question is is people feeling sad or lonely better that...

I just re-read that and it came out sounding P'd off but I didn't mean it that way at all, sorry. I'm also filling out some bulls**t HR docs for work at the moment and the frustration obviously spilled over :oops: As in all things we weigh the advantages and disadvantages and choose...

I was genuinly treating that as a question, not a a rhetorical feedline to stuff my opinion down your throat. "We're on shaky ground here" You're not wrong, but as you have chosen to argue by taking things to one logical extreme, I'll take it to the other. It is immoral for me to imprison...

Its nice to see that you've adjusted your stance on violence to realise that tactical violence sometimes is necessary. Thats encouraging, I didn't think you were capable of that. I believe you are now into the realms of the more generic question - When is it moral for a group of people...

So both animals can get large enough to do you real damage. Whats your point here? Why are these dogs different? So not being allowed a dog big enough to be dangerous makes someone socially excluded then? I didn't realise the qualification was so simple.

My kids have plenty of things to keep them busy all day. I don't like walking dogs, I've got enough to do without following an animal around picking up its poo. Catching and fetching? Why do I need an animal to do these things for me? You fail to mention that they eat huge amounts of food...

OK Benefits - You have to be a registered dog owner. RSPCA know who keeps dogs, anyone unregistered can therefore have the dog removed without lots of legal shennanigans. This would prevent issues where people who are banned from keeping animals for previous offences of maltreatment keep...

Just a suggestion, never ever use a religious text to try and prove an argument. The whole argument will just get horrendously messy. Lets stick to rational debate eh?

We have just had traffic calming measures installed on our road. Its made a hell of a difference as we no longer get people driving through the village at 60+ while the kids are queueing for the schoolbus. In many cases they are a necessary evil. Having said that they should NOT be designed...

Why is it a bizarre idea?

Obviously I wasn't paying attention either cos thats how this reads BAS. You seem to be saying that no-one has any chance of ever winning an argument with you. That may not be the way you intend to come across, but you do. Thats probably why you are at the top of the list, of many people...

There are plenty of pets that are not physicaly capable of tearing your face off. How about a cat, could shred your face but that would be far too undignified. Gerbils, notorious for their inability to rip your arm off. Rabbit, leg biting skills - 0 Or stick to small dogs - A jack russel...

Well its start anyway....

Don't get me started, the whole ridiculous "half-a-sentence" routine is a whole other discussion.

Problem is unless you got a screenshot or printed out the page with the prior price on , you've got no evidence. something might happen if enough people tell the same story, but really it won't stand up in court will it? Just vote with your wallet and never go back there + tell lots of people...

8 years for the manslaughter of 3 people, sounds a bit on the lenient side to me, I guess there must have been extenuating circumstances.

I'm sure it was a shocking blow to the supermarket that, I expect their behaviour will change forthwith :wink: Really, they couldn't give a monkeys about your little protest, the only person it hurt was yourself.

I encourage debate and argument. Of course I encourage open mindedness too, I suppose you've got the first bit right.

What and you don't subvert the process of the debate? You jump to conclusions about peoples characters, from too limited information. You imply that because someone doesn't agree with you that they are mentaly impaired in some way. You place childishly simplistic labels on people and...
