    I’ll let my lazy tub of lard know that she’s a “lethal danger” next time she waddles over to a new visitor shes never met and lays down with her head in their lap

        Their dog hasn’t killed anyone, what’re you talking about?

        That’s the equivalent of me blaming you for every murder ever committed by another human being.

          Them telling me their dog is harmless is fucking meaningless, what’re you talking about?

          That’s the equivalent of me telling people that no human would ever murder because I know this one guy that’s never murdered.

            It’s the equivalent of you telling me that a specific person you know personally would never kill anyone.

            Telling me that your mom, for example, would never hurt anyone, isn’t a crazy meaningless statement to make. You probably know your mom pretty well.

            If the other commenter said “no dog would ever hurt anyone” then yeah, you’d be right. But that’s not what they said.

                Oh you sweet summer child you sweet and innocent summer child you have absolutely no idea do you. I guarantee you your mother was just as you were just as I was. We murdered every single other hominid. We butchered the Dezavonians and the Neanderthals. Then we committed to several hundred thousand years of warfare against the last remaining hominid, other homosapiens. We are the violence monkeys. As far as I’m aware we have only seen humans and certain other great apes commit to sustained generational warfare. Just because we stand up walk around and put on clothes and talk to each other doesn’t mean we’re not vilant unpredictable animals. It doesn’t mean we’ve lost a capacity for violence far exceeding any dogs ability.

                  You sound like you make your livelihood off the blood of those dumb enough to buy the dogs you’ve immorally bred.

                    Pretty hard to breed them when you spay and neuter them like a responsible owner

                Nature vs nurture my friend - we have no idea how much of that breeding actually affects their psychology. This has been debated for god only knows how long.

                Some slaves were also bred for violence. So, by your own logic, we should ban all of their ancestors as well right?

                  Lol were they? Because I severely doubt they realized that humans aren’t anywhere near as primitive as a dog and yoy can’t just breed violence into a human like that. It takes generations of foxes to be bred to be docile, it would take 100 years or so to get any wanted result in a human.

                    and yoy can’t just breed violence into a human like that

                    Lol is that a fact? So humans just so happen to be the only species that selective breeding doesn’t affect? I think I’m going to need a source for that.

                    Either way, you responding to four of my comments within less than 5 minutes is a little weird.

                  Humans are not fucking dogs you degenerate cunt. Why do pointers point without being taught? Why do herding dogs herd? Millennia of selective breeding with an animal that is known for having highly adaptable genetics. Fuck right off.

                    Humans also do shit without being taught, wtf are you talking about? You realize humans are also animals…right?

                    Again, nature vs nurture is a topic that has been debated for hundreds of years. So I’m sorry, but this isn’t going to be decided in a Lemmy thread by [email protected]

          All humans are one species. We have no breeds. Now if the government genetically modified some humans to indiscriminately murder for no reason then you could blame that “breed” of humans, yes.
