		<description>I&#039;m a mentally ill American, and I sure don&#039;t need extra regulations that apply only to me on this side of the ocean!  I hear your frustration - in this country, most homeowners insurance policies will not insure your home if you have a pit bull or rottweiler.  A lot of people buy these dogs because they were victimized and they are afraid. I knew  a tiny woman of asian ancestry who was a graduate of MIT and she bought a Rottweiler after her home was broken into twice in Los Angeles.

Don&#039;t oversimplify this situation. It isn&#039;t always &quot;my dog is badder than your dog,&quot; kind of thinking.

I own 4 violent lap, er, attack cats.

You can&#039;t pigeonhole people based on their diagnosis or employment.  Now, a person with a history of violence, that is another thing.  There, you have a negative behavior that can be punished, but you can&#039;t punish people because they got depressed or had to get a job as a clerk.</description>

		<description>Not all working class people own dogs who kill. That is such a sweeping statement. You don&#039;t often hear of babies being mauled at all, it is rare. The class of the person has nothing to do with it, it is down their capability and knowledge as a dog owner. I&#039;m quite sure you&#039;ll find incapable people in middle and upper class areas too.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s a load of &#039;ignorant bull sh*t&#039; if ever I heard any!
As a &#039;working class&#039; council house tenant who has kept GSD&#039;s and GSDX&#039;s for over 50 years I object to your slanderous comments! My dogs have never attacked anyone or anything! I&#039;ve only ever been attacked by one dog and that belonged to a woman who lived in a &#039;Posh neighbourhood&#039; and it was a Labrador Retriever!!!!
Do you work for a living? If you do then you can call yourself what you like but you are still a member of the working class!
If I recall correctly it isn&#039;t that long ago that a certain Princess was in trouble over her &#039;viscious&#039; dog and I believe it bit someone in a house far more luxurious than any you&#039;ll find in Hampstead!
I believe that people should have to prove their knowledge and understanding of &#039;dogs&#039;, have to show that they are capable of handling the &#039;breed&#039; they choose, and should have to be licensed with certain groups being more difficult to get a license for! As I&#039;ve been through several &#039;Vetting&#039; procedures to adopt my dogs I know I could pass the test easily, I wonder how well you&#039;d do?</description>

		<description>no don&#039;t be ignorant and snobbish
we should be encouraging proper registration and training of all breeds of dog and education for their owners before we become a real nany state and ban anything that has teeth or claws from coming near us</description>

		<description>Why not just ban guard dogs from ownership in the general public?  Require a special license for their ownership.  Let trainers have them and police, etc, but not the general public.  And if there are any incidents with a dog then that person looses their license to own them.</description>
