It might help if you mention your source for your info, without it, it is just your opinion.
You post is titled "UK to ban guard dogs" yet your source is from an article reporting the ban in Dublin Ireland, Dublin is not part of the UK and has her own government. And it is not the government banning the dogs, it is the local council. The UK has outlawed four breeds of dogs, http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts1991...10065_en_1.htm # the Pit Bull Terrier # the Japanese tosa # the Dogo Argentino # the Fila Brasileiro Other breeds are regarded as dangerous and have certain restrictions such as muzzles to be worn in public. Handguns were outlawed in response to public horror at the massacre of schoolchildren in Dunblane in the 90's, certain guns are still available and legal to own under certain conditions. Swords and knives have always been illegal to carry in public, this is due to concern for public safety. (I have a collection of knives and swords) This is the case in many countries including the USA. (dependent on State and local law) I understand the point you are making and I mean no offence but your post is full of inaccuracies, confusing at best, some might even say mis-information.
