How is gravity a can of worms? Without it we would all be floating about lol. Theres no denying gravity The vast majority of the scientific community feel the same about evolution, that's the point. All of science as we know it is theory, theorys to fit observable facts. That's where people get confused, they read evolution theory and think that it's unproven. But by definition all of science is theory. Newton's theory of gravity, Einstein's theory of special relativity etc etc. Do people doubt these scientific 'theories'? Of course a small minority do, but not because any scrap of fact

Not always the case no, but I think it's fair to say that there are some impressive crosses out there, hence their success in the field at a few specialist jobs. But like I said, just another line of thought somewhat off topic. Interesting to hear of those problems though.

We park our cars in the same lot .......I cant speak for greyhounds as i dont have much experience with them......but as regards the apbt,i would rather they simply died out and no longer exist as a breed rather than watch them end up a fashion statement or a piece of home furniture like some breeds......... When a person has seen such perfection to watch it deteriorate feels like a sin. Fortunately the Greyhound is of no interest to those that don't strive for that perfection. Likewise I have little to no experience with the apbt but I can see it's sad times for another canine athlete

Any reasonable person would draw that same conclusion Charts. Though I admit, it isn't proof of evolution it certainly makes evolution plausible. Far more plausible than any other competing theory. I think I'll stand in the corner of the academics with this one...

Can't dissagree with any of that. The impression I am getting from the news is that we are to feel sorry for these people and shocked at the poor conditions they are forced to live in in our super 1st world country. I don't blame them at all, I would quite happily take advantage of another country if it improved my own families quality of life. But that doesn't give me any sympathy for them or compassion. Like I said, they came here to take advantage of our country at a atime of national hardship and they copped out. Screw em, if only the authorities would take a harder a stance on such things

We,re not talking about retired racers.....i totally agree with you,hence ive donated to the retired greyhound trust many times....... We,re talking about a performance bred dog being used as a pet INSTEAD of a racer.............as far as im aware theres not a retired pit bull trust where ex fighters live out a happy life in the home................there is for greyhounds and thats great..............but it still doesnt excuse putting any performance bred dog into the family home from day 1 to cope with the strains and stresses of being a family pet IN PREFERENCE to being where that dog reall

Probably better accomodation than where they came from. They come here illegally to take advantage of our country at a time of hardship, f**k em. I hope the authorities deal with them apropriately, both the illegal imigrants and the landlords. Unfortunately the media in the countries where they all originate probably wont be covering this very much.

Looking real good Jiggy! Will you bury the mauled pikeys or just feed em to the hounds? lol. Nah, best bury em, bad meat!

Thought I had lost one of my jills, following operation.

Well done you. Got to admit i think my instant reaction seeing one of mine in such a state would be to end it asap. I hope the Vet didn't charge for the second op? -
How's the bitch run since? Could she be given the benefit of the doubt if it was a one off? What's the justification for breeding her? Would the breeding produce better bred pups than anything else available? Just a few questions I would be asking myself.

I think any kind of physical activity is very much an individual thing, different stuff 'flicks' that switch for different people. I think the main attraction for the average person that does some sort of weight training is the general feel good factor it gives you. Looking in the mirror in the morning and seeing an strong hard athletic figure instead of a soft feable one. Being able to lift with ease that paving slab that before would have damn near crippled you. General little things like that, even down to the de-stressed post gym feeling that comes with a hard session. That's where the add

Well of course they're not tombs! FFS, they're alien landing pads for the Abydonian helicopters!

Depends on the dog and situation of course but I don't think I would be getting shot of the dog. I would have the dog outside for a start and teach it where it belongs in your family at the same time. I know other family members can be a bit soft with dogs but the little f****r should of had the seven shades of shit knocked out of it immediately by your missus, absolutely no excuses for a dog snapping but it does happen if the dogs left thinking it's place is higher than it should. Also if I genuinely thought the dog to be a problem animal it would be shot and not passed on. JMO, obviously you

I would personally feed carcasses instead of wings, I don't see the need to mince them though. Possible chop em into more manageable chunks if the pup is very small. If you're really bothered you could either purchase a simple mincer yourself and mince the carcasses or possibly phone Bulmer dog foods and ask if they could mince them for you. They may be open to the idea if you buy in bulk.
-
There's a thread pinned in this section full of recomendations! The minced chicken is just flesh, no bone. Personally I have chicken carcasses, beef & tripe mince and bones off them. Very reasonable prices and always fresh. The dogs do well on it.

Think of it this way; What if there was half a dozen or so fishermen on this site that absolutely detested lurcher work, thought that lurchermen were real scum bags regardless of any reasons or ethics and every thread put up about a nights lamping or work these half a dozen 'anti lurcher anglers' gave there opinions on how shitty lurchermen are. Would you be so supportive of their right to voice their opinions or would you, as I would, leave the site because it was ruined? Debate is good and healthy but this is becoming a joke.
-
Quite right, but it becomes a joke when every thread drags this bullshit out and those that would genuinely apreciate such a thread can't because of it. Every single time this happens and with similar topics. It's just a matter of minding your own business now and again. As for your previous post regarding people paying for the sport of shooting hares, I wasn't aware of that, the hare shoots here in lincs that I have been told about don't charge anything other than keepers tip. Like I said it's sport for those that don't often enjoy big driven bird days and if they enjoy it then leave em t

Ian, is it possible to ban persistant trouble makers from certain sections of the site? I don't like the idea of banning at all but certain threads are 100% garunteed to just cause arguments and certain individuals just can't keep their opinions civil. Debate is great and differing opinions make that but this is a bit of a joke at times. I refrained from posting on this thread because shooting hares does f**k all for me but I equally don't see why others should be ashamed of enjoying it, especially when it's done as a form of population management, is sustainable, all the meat is at the de

On farm land my approach is to tell them politely what I am doing and why and then if they get funny about it simply to f**k off and report me to whoever the wish to. It's never gone further than that. If I'm in a funny mood I may go with the odd wind up. In your situation I would do the same but direct them to the land owner/park authority very politely, even go so far as having his number to hand so you can phone him and hand the phone to the unhappy individual. I have done this before and it resolved the situation. If you find your self in the publics eye then act like a professional an

We just chuck em in the nearest hedge bottom or ditch out of public sight. Tbh I have no idea what he law thinks to this. The most important thing is to ensure the public do not find these carcasses, It does us no favours at all.

I'm purposely being inflammatory as I accept Micro-evolution by natural selection eg silver moths on sooty bark. Thats a long way away from Wolf to domestic dog. The running dog is perfection in motion in my eyes, the perfect hunting machine. By your logic it should have evolved naturally No, because survival in nature requires more than what humans did in the perfect sighthound, so no nature would not have produced the perfect running dog. Hence why we have wild wolves etc and not wild greyhounds......Survival of the fittest? Does anybody claim it happened by accident? Not an accident but cer

No No, I'm sorry fellas it's all bollocks. Ya see that's just another example of us being lied to. FFS

Nobody is saying that catastrophes have'nt occured and species have'nt been extinct, neither does it disprove evolution so ffs stop goin on about it! Answer the f*****g question; where is the evidence of these advanced races and where the f**k did all the life on Earth come from if not evolution? As for these maps, they are a hoax! It's the simplest explanation! Backed up by the fact that there is again FECK ALL evidence to suggest otherwise. Jesus christ! Edited to add: I've just read that this Charles P Hapgoods fella believed he had lectures through a medium with Jesus, Einst
