Dangerous dogs in Denmark Shoot the puppy!

Lars Lokke Rasmussen, solemnly promised a new law to ban aggressive breeds of dog. “We don’t want a society”, he said with furrowed brow, “where you cannot go walking with your child or your poodle without risking an attack.”

According to the Danish Kennel Club, the kingdom’s population of fighting breeds such as pit-bull terriers, mastiffs and rottweilers has risen from 1,000 to 20,000 in the past five years. The incidence of attacks, mostly on other pets, has grown accordingly.

Several people have been mauled, though deaths so far have been confined to cats, rabbits and small dogs. Still, widespread worries that the next attack could kill a citizen have pushed man’s erstwhile best friend to the top of the political agenda.

This, i STILL can take. but not when one of the parliamentary seat holders proposed a solution:

proposed a logical, if drastic, solution: kill all mongrels. Mr Moller claims this is the only way to eliminate aggressive traits from the doggy gene pool.

HOW ON EARTH IS THAT LOGICAL?! You should say that it's UNETHICAL. Shouldnt you focus on training the dogs more, rather than just putting down the innocent dogs who have YET to attack? Such ridiculous pre-emptive measures are just insane. He has probably got bitten by a dog before or something.

Mr Moller is prepared for the backlash: “We will surely see lots of press photos of sweet little puppies being put down but we must be determined,” he says unflinchingly.

Oh for f***'s sake, somebody please wake up his idea!



On a more personal note, I am aching healthy aches! Lol. Badminton w fellow slacking aero buddies then a desperate attempt to swim w rabbit. All in one day! Got a strange tan now. but it should go away! Like how my lobster red-ness on my face went away so quickly :D ahahaha. I need more monster hunter. It's too exciting XD
