https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/after-attacks-british-prime-minister-american-xl-bully-103216849 LONDON -- British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Friday described American XL Bully dogs as a “danger to our communities” and announced plans to ban the breed following a public outcry after a series of recent attacks. Sunak said he has asked government ministers to bring together police and canine experts to legally define the characteristics of the American XL Bully, which is not recognized as a breed by groups such as the Kennel Club in Britain or the American Kennel Club in the United States. “It is not currently a breed defined in law, so this vital first step must happen fast,’’ Sunak said in a video statement posted to X, formerly known as Twitter. “We will then ban the breed under the Dangerous Dogs Act and new laws will be in place by the end of the year.’’ The government has been under pressure to take action after an 11-year-old girl was attacked and seriously injured by an American XL Bully on Saturday in Birmingham, England. Those concerns deepened on Thursday after a man was killed in an attack that may have involved this type of dog. “The American XL Bully dog is a danger to our communities, particularly our children,’’ Sunak said. “I share the nation’s horror at the recent videos we’ve all seen.’’ Four breeds of dogs are currently banned in the United Kingdom: the pitbull terrier, the Japanese tosa, the dogo Argentino and the fila Brasileiro. Some campaigners have called for the American XL Bully, which was originally bred from the American pit bull terrier, to be added to the list because they believe dangerous characteristics have been bred into the animals. The XL Bully is not recognized as a breed by the U.K.’s Kennel Club, which has argued that no breed of dog is inherently dangerous. The organization says breed-specific bans do not address the most important factors contributing to attacks, primarily irresponsible dog owners who train their dogs to be aggressive. The bully breeds get their name because they were originally used in blood sports, such as bull baiting. The dogs have a muscular build and a heavier bone structure than pit bulls.

英国大体上还是能够分清个人利益和集体利益的优先级，美国人相比还是太自我（或者太自私）了
美国别指望了， 禁狗估计比杀人影响还大。
估计也是
英国严格控枪也是，发生mass shooting后马上就实施，后面20多年都没再发生过
红脖子智商太低， 反射弧长阿， 估计要 200 年后才能反应过来。
禁枪比挖他们祖坟还心疼。愚昧到骨髓里去了， 不可救药。
为啥人家的国家这么正常呢。。。
世界上还是正常的国家多吧？ 除了美帝，估计就是第三世界国家了，人家是顾不过来，有口吃的就谢天谢地了。
就是禁止繁育的意思
这跟红脖子一提禁枪就话要禁车禁菜刀一样的脑残思维， Convenience 成本能一样吗？
对。美国靠的是脑吸全世界的人才带动核心领域。剩下的民众都是政客忽悠的棋子，越没文化越好骗
资本太坏，麦康奈尔八十多了也拼命不让屁民拥有简单的全民医保。
可以要求跟开车一样, 强制买保对方不保自己的那种保险. 保险premium跟高档跑车一个级别
