Restricting ownership is responsible and it affects a lot more than the right to bear firearms. If you're responsible then you have the right to own a gun, a dog, to work in the care sector etc etc. If you have a record of irresponsibilty, animal abuse, assault then you shouldn't own a gun, a...

Same here.

She makes a salient point. There's much clamouring around here about how a child should have the right to be born put post birth little in the way of rights or a lot of blather about how it should be parental responsibility. In the UK a child has the right to food, water, shelter, warmth, an...

Well, my contention is that nobody should be issued with or allowed to own a gun until stringent background checks have been carried out to ascertain whether they're fit to have one.

All of them? You sure that's not hyperbole on your part? In any event, specify how.

Yup, clear as day.

Not sure what you're getting at with that.

Who says I get "all worked up"?

I was referring to the poster "User Name" who I shortened to "UN". Poster names often get shortened to initials on here. They haven't to me, personally. They generally bemuse/amuse me in equal measure.

I already have. Tighter restrictions, background checks etc.

Oh, I know I'm correct on the former, I know a staffy when I see one. :) I agree with some of your latter and completely disagree with some of these laws as covered in the link below. There are exemptions as outlined but there should be more of an emphasis on owner responsibility than any...

The dog you have is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier. It clearly isn't a cross breed or "Pit Bull". Does that bother you? Cross breeds are not illegal including bull terriers in the mix but what you have is fully fledged 'Staffy'.

Well, I don't know which "Brits" you've been reading but your pic resembles a fully fledged Staffordshire Bull Terrier and that is the correct name of the breed. I should know, I was brought up with them when I was born, throughout childhood and beyond and we generally refer to them as "Staffys"...

Wow, such an edifying letter...

Told by who? Ignoramuses? I've owned the breed and they're no more an "assault canine" than any other breed of dog.

Except you didn't actually make one. You made a bunch of presumptions that didn't hold up is all but if you want to think I was wound up then eh, go right ahead. Kinda used to folk doing that stuff around these parts and you're bringing nothing new to the table in that regard.

It's still baffling how the far right on here are supporting or making apologies for a communist despot. Bizarre to say the least.

Frankly, Tom, you have no idea as to 'what I want' given this. I'm not for anything like you suggest. If you think I support the removal of all gun rights in America then you're wrong. Supporting tighter legislation and restrictions before ownership is not tantamount to that in any way. Why...

Well, was a cringe worthy trawl but listened to the whole thing months ago and there's no denying that Trump was feebly trying to coerce Raffensperger into "finding" him over 11,000 votes. That's fraud, plain and simple, much like the MAGA crowd.

Isn't that a prerequisite? Whatever, Trump getting equal time as he apparently wishes - bring it on!
