I'm beginning to think you are living in some sort of fantasy world. That's the reason I didn't reply before. There are some people you can have a sensible discussion with, and there are some that you can't. I leave you to guess which category you fit into.
Like I care what you 'think', 'sensible discussion' .......read your posts pal!....you have a pop at anyone who disagrees with you....the only sensible thing you have written without getting personal on anyone who has a pop at dogs, is that you have actively picked up rubbish in the park......so granted there is something worthy there.
My boy is 2.....its my duty to protect him...if im not happy about a dog running up to him at 20mph and he is very scared how do you want me to react, kick the dog in the throat?
Its not my dog....i dont know it......i dont know whats its going to do ....i would be the same anywhere like most parents not just in Whaley Park, but the point of this discussion was dog on the loose in the park , fouling, urinating , scaring children in a play area
the funny thing is you go on about sensationalism then go on to make sensationalist quotes...a la
'I have just this minute heard on the radio that in this country every 10 days a child dies at the hands of a carer'.....moral panic here we come...
