Exactly.

Been to Temora? They have an awesome collection of fighter planes.

I know of lots of people who own tanks and other armoured vehicles.

Who's talking exclusively about pit bulls or Victoria?

We need National Uniform Dog Laws to take all dogs out of the hands of
people who have no good reason to have them.

Yes, you should.

The same old shit goes round and round,

Round and round.
The same old shit goes round and round,
Every single day here!

So you are telling me that my cocker spaniel is a potential killer? You
might be right if you are a lizard. You aren't a lizard are you?

Of course it is.

Why does a piss-ant like you need a hunting dog?

> You might be right if you are a lizard.

What about a baby, or small child?

>You aren't a lizard are you?

No. But I have babies.

Time for you to surrender your potentially lethal hunting dog.

Your blasé attitude to native wildlife (lizards) proves you're too
irresponsible to own such a potentially dangerous animal.

Of course he isn't, but I do make sure that he doesn't have access to
firearms just to be on the safe side.

To hunt down piss-ants like you?

Nope, he has never shown the slightest aggression to people of any size.

Good for you. Since they may grow up to be mass murderers or terrorists
it would probably be safer to put them down now. We need National
Uniform Laws to take all babies out of the hands of people who have no
good reason to have them.

> Time for you to surrender your potentially lethal hunting dog.

Nope time to celebrate my passive pet dog.

The lizards that inhabit my 700 square metre block are not what you'd
call endangered especially since the dog usually only barks at them.

Doesn't matter. It could turn vicious without warning.

Just ask dog-breeder and gun-grabber Samantha Lee.

Doesn't matter. It's inhumane to terrorise them like that.
