| 577522 | 2007-08-07 01:27:00 | Theres something strange here. What was that 2 yr old Maori girl doing near water with no adult supervision? I agree the dog should be shot and the owners jailed but the parents of that kid should be jailed as well. tedheath |

| 577523 | 2007-08-07 01:53:00 | It seems the dog owners were fairly responsible. The dog was registered and the property was fenced. But somehow it got out. The child should have been under supervisor - Maori parents again. But I think it was playing with lots of other children, were they supervised. My answer is just to ban all dangerous dogs and euthanase them all and any half breeds. If a poodle bites you, it will not hang on and shake you to pieces. These dogs were bred to fight and bred to hold on. I was very pleased when I heard on the radio that Helen Clark was sick of these dog attacks and thought we had better look at banning them. (cos what she says usually gets done) But then later on, on the radio it said she was thinking of tidying up the rules as regards to fence heights ! Once again a sickly bureaucratic rule that will never be followed by low lifes. Regards Digby |

| 577529 | 2007-08-07 03:49:00 | The child should have been under supervisor - Maori parents again. But of course there's no trend or pattern emerging aye? Hasn't for a long time aye? And it's my problem too aye? Society's fault aye? Bollocks to that. Put the blame where it mostly lies, and deal to it. |

| 577530 | 2007-08-07 04:14:00 | 9 yr old supervising a toddler by water isnt on it, it cant be legal. I have a 9 yr old I couldnt trust him to supervise anything, hes got the attention span of a wombat. Its pretty much a Maori thing I think, not polynesian because the Pacific Islanders really look after their kids. There are no excuses for the owner, these dogs are like loaded guns with no safety catch and a hair trigger. The owner should be doing jail time (hard labour ) as a lesson to other owners of these dog weapons. tedheath |

This is like the internet version of talkback radio . You think it's pretty much a Maori thing? And not a Polynesian thing? This is your impression? What experiences do you draw from in order to form this impression? I invite your comment . |
