Precisely. A trained attack dog is a hell of alot more dangerous than a bunch of overgrown foxes, and even a trained attack dog would not be difficult to kill. It'd be difficult to kill without getting torn up pretty badly, but still not difficult to kill. The moment it latches onto your arm is the moment you start stabbing it in the neck.

Anyway, all this talk of conservation brings me to my unpopular opinion: We should just let pandas die out. Most species we're trying to save at least meet us half way. Pandas spend all day eating the equivalent of junk food and refuse to mate with each other. They've given up. So should we. I agree. Personally, I think in the case of endangered animals that simply aren't showing signs of recovery, we should take a member of the species and freeze it until we get to a point where we can simply clone them. Hell, I think I even heard recently that we're almost there. Like, it was something about being able to create a fetus using literally any cell from the body or something. Not sure if it was legit or not. technically speaking we can clone anything so long as we have a few stem cells and some donor DNA, be that preserved in amber or frozen (although frozen doesn't last that long) your idea of preserving some samples for the future when the species can be re-introduced isn't a bad one, its just hat without diversity you end up with a big old bag of cone headed 6 toed webbed fingered freaks, so we would need several samples for that idea. we could also grow cloned animals and use them for the hunters /Chinese medicine options, indeed should someone actually think about it you could have hundreds of ivory tusks and rhino horns grown off modified animals in labs for the industry with technology we (humans) have, but I might suggest doing it would be barbaric and some "rights" activist would believing themselves to be acting in the best interests of whatever it was set it free and accidentally kill thousands of its species (like some tard did to cause mixi in rabbits) or alternatively start the zombie apocalypse.... however I do think we owe it to our fellow planet dwellers to stop being racist and at least try and help them survive, even to the point of creating them a specialist habitat, we don't after all have the right to kill them off just because we polluted their environment and damaged their libedo /

Moving on, I don't think this one will go down too well. I think Bob Dylan is ridiculously overrated. He's just awful. Agreed. When I tell friends I don't care for him or his music they always react confused. I know a lot of people who you could call indie/hipster types that love Dylan and tell me "Oh but it's Bob Dylan. He's such a talented songwriter/musician, you definitely need to check out his albums, you don't know good music, blah blah blah." So yeah, Dylan sucks. Simple as that.

having been forced to listen to his dirges for the first two decades of my life I concur he's not even melodious, and despite liking the words and delivery of several of ac/dc's tracks I found them to be generally gash as well but then apart from tour of duty I didn't generally think much of them either... my olds loved them though ..... and pink Floyd, yeah great if your trying to get through a bad acid trip or a dodgy mushroom but seriously its mostly just nasty

I know a guy who was attacked by two German Shepherds when he was jogging. Jumped over the fence and one immediately bit his arm. With the edge of his other hand he broke the dogs spine, the other dog he kicked to death. His arm was pretty torn up but was able to defend himself against two pretty aggressive dogs. I've heard when dogs bite you cannot make them let go unless you kill them. The bite reflex of those animals overcomes even the worst pain.
Also self defense trainer once told me if a dog bites your arm and you are unarmed you have to gauge out their eyes, going for the nuts or any other body part does nothing. Not sure if thats true and I don't want to find out.
I carry a knife for self defense, I have little experience with dog attacks but I'd repeatedly stab the dogs throat or ram the blade into its forehead /eye socket.

I've heard that it's impossible with pittbulls, but not with other dogs. But I don't know much about that. Given that I've been attacked twice by big dogs, I tried to learn what should be their weakness, how you can surprise and hurt them while hitting them. Their belly below, their balls too, their nose. If they bite you,; don't waste your time trying to remove their big mouth, indeed their jaw is very strong, kick them in all their sensible parts of their body as much as possible ; Try to never fall on the ground when they jump on you, otherwise, yuk. It requires a certain position of the legs to counterbalance the weight. You reminded me one of my unpopular opinions among the ladies around me by the way. I've been bitten hard twice by big dogs, and I have no love for them or animals in general even when they want to hug me. Stay away from me. That doesn't interest me. i don't want them near me. I don't want to live with them, i can like them when they don't come to annoy me. I avoid walking near doberman, I hate when they look at you with their eyes, absolutely motionless, as if they were going to jump on you. I can accept a cat, or a small dog in my house, but that's it, no more than that and as long as I am not forced by my partner to love them. No because you have some who need their partner to like animals like them, and I'm not going to change for them. I don't hate animals, but I don't love them either. It's llike that, either you accept me as I as am, either goodbye. I made sur sure to live with someone who does not want necessarily dogs around in the house, I gave up on any girl in the past that I knew had several dogs and cats in her house before even trying. Nope. It's incompatible with me. It does not interest me. My relationship with big dogs is not fear, but suspicion, and hostility if they start yelling at me for no reason on the streets.

I don't want the government forcing me or anyone else to do anything, let alone fight 2. Our military is so effective mainly due to its volunteer nature. You'd have to seriously scale back the current training standards if everyone were to suddenly start being forced into the system

Large dogs can as damaging when they're being friendly as when they're being vicious; the neighbor has a large mastiff, and she likes to stand up and put her paws all over people, causing all sorts of scrapes and cuts with her sharp nails in the process, not to mention causing that with her teeth(while not trying to actually bite). Then again, the dog is called Klutz, so....

I have never been married and never will get married, maybe being raised by a single divorced mother has given me a more skeptical opinion of the whole business, but I see no reason why you have to go through an expensive ceremony and involve a bunch of people just so you can be with someone you care about. I have seen people get divorced and it destroys their entire relationship when you involve lawyers, where as my ex and I have actually been able to keep an amount of friendship between us.

Don't worry,being raised by two parents in a very dysfunctional relationship hasn't given me a positive outlook on it either. I personally find little to reason to settle down with someone(in this case a woman) long term if it doesn't involve raising a family. I don't see any point in an expensive ceremony that's ultimately just prom for adults either, or paying much for a rock that serves no purpose other than to be pawned in the event of a divorce.

Exactly! I witnessed my friends get a divorce, it started out being an amical split up and then they each hired lawyers and that's when the fur began to fly. My lawyer said I can get this and I'm entitled to that...blah, blah , blah. They ended up hating eachother and began doing spiteful things to eachother...it was really stupid.

But I have no military background of my own (I was well under the weight-minimums when I was curious, and now I think that ship has sailed for me) so I cannot claim to know what I'm talking about. Anywho, shutting up now. =)

It is truly an antiquated tradition that needs to die. Such a waste and so rarely worth it You should be proud of yourself, keeping on civil terms with an ex. I have only been able to achieve this with one ex, my Ex-Wife, (and only because she's a pretty good mother) and it has caused me more gray hairs than I can count. Well, actually I have about 5 and they are all because of her disgusting antics.

I don't really care if someone gets married, but having a kid with someone you're not absolutely certain you're going to want to stay with for the duration of the kid's childhood is monumentally stupid. It isn't always the case, but in the vast majority of instances where a kid grows up in a single parent household they end up worse off than those in a two parent household (which is common sense, but y'know).
It's an incredibly large issue among the United State's black population. There's a fucking 70% single motherhood rate among the black population. It's insane.

I don't plan on getting married, but I still have some admiration for the institution itself. Maybe it does come down to parents. Mine have been married almost 50 years. So I know it can work.
With modern divorces, it's pretty damn scary though. Ya better be sure.

I don't really like hamburgers or the "greasy food" staples like hot dogs, etc all that much.
Not in a "It's not part of my diet, or ethical routine" it's just I honestly don't think they taste that great, there's better "greasy" kind of food out there.
