Sorry I misread it as two fighting-dogs you know two pitbulls or similar, but if one was my pet then not for one moment would I tolerate it.

I agree with *Bob* the stick should go up the owners arse, as the dog has been driven to savagery by him.


Some years ago walking across Brockwell park a dog came over the horizon took one look at me and started to walk towards me, I changed direction and it changed direction. Half a minute later it came at me, it did not run, or bark, it wanted to eat me quietly as it made hardly any noise. Fortunately for me I was carrying a walking stick, I managed to keep it off me by swinging violently for the few seconds or minutes the attack took place. Then across the park came a dog walker with a number of animals on leads and the attacking pit bull stopped turned and walked towards the dog walker and showed no aggression at all. From that time I never go walking with out a stick. It was terrifying and had I been armed with a gun I would have gladly shot that animal dead along with it's owner who of course was not with the beast.

    • Both notoriously “lovely” people to spend any time with or worse, serve 
    • No, just no.  Zero tolerance does not mean we expect zero crime but that we do not accept a standard level as normal and unavoidable. For those who have suffered such “minor” crimes, myself included having had my house broken into,  it is clear from the lack of action that they are considered “acceptable”’. Once small crimes become known to be ignored, it changes where and how we live.     
    • Lloyd Weber and Cilla Black were supposed to leave when Blair got in, but didn't
    • You can't have zero tolerance unless you live in a fascist/police state.  Sadly it is something you have to accept in a democracy.  There has always been crime, even in North Korea, the Soviet bloc, Nazi Germany, Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge etc.   The discussion point is how big a police force we need and capabilities, punishment, and building communities.  And how much we are prepared to pay in extra taxation. Even in the good (economic) times there is crime.  And crime under both Labour and Tory governments. I do not accept that phone thefts and parcel thefts are just statistics.  Police have to prioritise what they do, we might not agree with it.  And most criminals are multi-tasking, moving to where the best return is considering the risk of being caught. And there has to be a market, someone somewhere needs to buy a stolen product (I never buy off Gumtree). A starting point would be to decriminalise all illegal drugs, but that is definitely for a separate Lounge conversation, interesting discussion paper here: https://kar.kent.ac.uk/105520/1/A. Stevens - In defence of the decriminalisation of drug possession in the uk - PPDF.pdf Did you watch any of the series of Peaky Blinders?  This was a very popular series that glorified gang crime and violence.  Funny (ironic) that may enjoy films and TV that does this.  Although only the first series had any historical accuracy in it,  Criminal gangs were around before and ever since.
