    Any dog can be trained to aggression, and several breeds can overpower an adult human male (since that seems to be your standard). Or don’t you have police dogs?

    Observation isn’t conspiracy, my friend. But it’s your country. Do with it what you will.

      Ahhhh ok. I’ll just train a chihuahua to kill then. Easy peasy.

      Bit of a ludicrous comparison to bring up police dogs. Police dogs are trained and not owned by random people.

      It’s very much a conspiracy lmao, you’re saying that this existing disease is related to the banning of a dangerous dog breed and that it’s part of a slippery slope to the government banning dogs, in the country with probably the highest dog ownership rate in the world.

      And btw, we aren’t talking about training a dog to be aggressive - we’re talking about selectively breeding dogs to be aggressive. There’s a difference.

        With respect, your excellency of avarice, training a chihuahua to kill is a bit like putting a stick of dynamite on a tactical nuclear warhead.

        (I’m only joking, I’ve met tons of chihuahuas who were wonderful.)
