    How does a " greater risk of being caught " tally up with harsher sentancing ? which is the reason for the drop greater risk of being caught or harsher sentancing ? Technology ( the greater risk of being caught ) is the reason people no longer walk into a bank with a sledghammer and a sack........not harsher sentances. Because any logical risk assesment is based on the statistical chance of falling foul and the consiquences of falling foul. It's a combination of the two. If you had to cross a road and their was a 50% chance of you getting clipped by a cyclist would you cross? Now i

    And whats wrong with pricing out those who cant afford to pay for their mistakes ?..............Besides which,how is it pricing out a sensible middle aged man who lives in the country who,s premium will likely be less than the spotty idiot driving a Fiesta in London Nothing, but the point in this isn't to create a system that ensures mistakes are payed for and corrected, it's to prevent the mistake in the first place. I'm not sure someone who has just had their kid mauled by a stray dog cares about compensation, they want their little angel safe in the first place. You're comparing

    You dont think that might have something to do with cctv/forensics/.....ie technology..........rather than tougher sentancing ?................tougher sentancing for a crime does not stop the crime being committed.....simple. That's exactly what it had to do with. The chance of getting caught went up rather than the punishment. But to my mind it's those things combined that is the deterant. If we started executing bank robbers do you not think that that would have had a similar effect? That's an extreme example to make my point. You up the consiquences and normal folk start thinking tw

    So why don't we just ban all dogs, f**k it, that'll save babies lives. Completely ban the pet ownership of dogs un the UK. Got to be worth it right? You don't want to live in a world where laws are fair, well I do and frankly that's the whole point in a democracy. What do you think is a good idea then & keeping it fair for all the scrotes who wanna strut round with aggressive dogs? I've told you, harsher sentencing and harder enforcement. Gnasher gave an example of bank robberies, a 2 second google showed that in the UK bank jobs have dropped by 90% in the last decade which has b

    A 200 bhp BMW owned by a 55 year old living in the sticks will probably be around the same figure to insure as a 18 year old Fiesta owner living in London.......the price is reflected in the overall risk..................a high risk dog owned by that same BMW owner is not as high risk as the same dog owned by the Fiesta owner. I understand that. But I said nothing of a 55 year old low risk individual. Fact is insurance is costed on a risk bassis, wealth has no bearing on it. So high risk wealthy individuals will NOT be priced out and so remain a very real threat to others. All you are

    You are calling them the less wealthy......im calling them the unsuitable........should a jobless spotty teenager be legally allowed to get into a 200 mph supercar and create panic on the roads ? no.......so why should he be able to do it legally with a dog ?.......the only thing that stops him doing it with a car is finance.....so why shouldnt a high risk dog owner be treated with the same precaution as a high risk car owner. Should a spoilt spotty entitled little b*****d be allowed to get in a 200mph supercar? All you are doing is pricing out those that haven't the coin. The wealthy

    Gnasher, according to a report bank robberies have dropped by 90% in the last decade which is a result of better enforcement of the law. Essentially the chancers have weighed up the risk to reward and it ain't worth it no more. You can increase the risk by either increasing the punishment or the chance of getting caught.

    How many working class young drivers can afford anything more than a ten year old 1lt fiesta/corsa though? Then how many multi millionaires kids get a 200+bhp BMW as their first motor? The only difference is money, you're not taking the risk away by charging a huge sum, you're just reducing the number of potential accidents waiting to happen by pricing out the less wealthy. So no more poor babies being mauled just those from wealthy families. But their still paying over a £1000 a year regardless of the model, & will pay it regardless of background..........insurance on dogs won't price o

    This insurance argument to me is the same as the argument for big price tags on pups "it prices out the idots!"....... no it doesn't, it prices out the less wealthy. The wealthy idiots crack on as usual....

    The thing is, all that compulsory insurance does is price the less wealthy out of it. It's a completely unfair means of reducing incidents. Do we see no car accidents with high risk groups because they have insurance? NO.... The sole purpose of insurance is to ensure accidents are resolved not avoided. It has the secondary effect of reducing accidents simply because it prices the less wealthy out completely. Legislation and strict enforcement prevents accidents in the first place in a fair way. It's really this simple, if your dog kills someone you do 30 years, if your dog disfigures someone t

    My dogs work in public areas all the time .... What would happen then ? Not to mention the majority of these 'accidents' seem to happen in a private environment. Often family home.

    I hate the concept of insurance and licences. Personally I think legislation that firmly puts the responsibility at the feet of the owners is what's needed... Put it this way, if law stated that if your dog kills another human you get the bullet with the mut, we'd soon see an improved sense of social responsibilty! I'm not necessarily suggesting we go that far... I've said it before, our society is being sterilised, we're almost conditioned to not take or have responsibility. Make people 100% accountable and responsible, stupidity is no excuse.

    With the greatest respect Dymented, as I know of your situation, if the police deemed it unsafe to despatch with a firearm then blunt force trauma was probably their only option. I imagine a crowbar wielded by a capable adult male would be very humane, myself. Quite frankly, f**k the RSPCA. When dealing with something like that you make a judgement call... the RSPCA wouldn't know anything about that.

    A simple bodybuilder would be blowing out his arse after 30 seconds of maximum exertion... add a bit of creative HIIT training and you'll have a bit of an animal, physically. Just do what you enjoy. Lets face it, unless your profession is combat there's little economy in training ten hours a week to be a deadly weapon in this day and age.

    Fit man no doubt, but most of those records are obscure challenges that the vast majority of fit people don't even know are official challenges. For instance if there aren't a hundred or more men in this country that couldn't do 22 one arm push ups with 60lb weight in a minute I'd be very suprised. Very fit man all the same. Though I think his dedication to it all is more impressive.

    Quite a bit of money! Finally got all my bits together for my variation, it goes in this week. Hopefully have a Tika T3 in 25-06 before long..... Either way the Swaro was a good investment.

    Bunch of religious f***ing loons the lot of you! Embrace Atheism you backward feckers. In the world of science and progression we have developed a few cracking problem solvers while you lot fight over sacred lands.
