Suella Braverman pushes for ban of 'lethal danger' XL Bully dogs
uk.yahoo.com
The home secretary is seeking "urgent advice" about banning American XL Bully dogs as footage shows one of the animals attacking an 11-year-old girl and a man in Birmingham. Suella Braverman has said the animals are a "clear and lethal" danger after the video of the attack in Bordesley Green emerged on the social media platform TikTok. West Midlands Police are investigating after two men, who were bitten and left with injuries to their shoulders and arms, were taken to hospital to be treated for their injuries after the incident on Saturday.

Wow this post got popular. I got called into work and didnt see the replies, sorry ladies and gentlemen! Trying to catch up tonight.

    The less safe the better for home defense. Grenades are destructive to their surroundings, you'd put your home at risk using those.

    A pit bull would stop a home invader with minimal damage to its surroundings though. Why would you want your home defence to be safe anyway?

      Every pit bull home I've ever seen is shredded - I've never seen a frag grenade go off in real life, but I imagine the property damage is about the same.

        Yes, I've seen pitbulls tear down drywall and studs, upset the foundation, and shatter every window within a 50ft radius…

          Okay, I've seen destroyed drywall and damaged studs, but you're right, no broken foundation or blown out windows from a murder muffin.
