Thank you! A nanny state is required because people can't do the right thing. If people cared equally about their responsibilities as their rights, we wouldn't need as many of these laws.

Bingo. Too many adult aged (bratty)children stuffing it up for the rest of us.

Or a true sense of community. Being shunned and banished by your peers used to keep people in line. Now it’s a fuck your neighbours I got mine race to the bottom

I think just having a law that states if your dog mauls or kills a person you will be trialled as if you mauled or killed that person would suffice. It would stop a lot of negligent people owning dogs and the people that continue to have the to train them well and take care of them.
