    I've got 3 dogs and don't need to prove to you anything. You come in with bold and arrogant claims, yet you can't even support your arguments. It's quite clear that you see yourself as more intelligent than Fry and everybody else. Grow up.
    If you already have 3 then one more lead won't hurt will it? I thought you cared so much about animals, come on! I don't see myself as more intelligent than everybody else, just 99% of Fry's fans. Sorry if I trod on your toes there Adrian Mole

    Well it does considering I live in a small home with 3 other family members, am not from a particularly wealthy background, and it is difficult to look after animals.

    Stephen Fry is loved by pretty much everybody in the Western - and Eastern - world, so 99% is quite a lot of humanity. I'm not sure what you have against him, but you really are showing up your intelligence...

    I think you are just baffled by the posh accent, but as far as clever people go he is one of the lowest of the low. He isn't the genius he makes himself out to be, and he certainly isn't worth the brown nosing his little fan boys give him. All these Fry sigs and his fan base only really came about on here when QI came out. He is just a normal bloke who likes to read, who speaks slowly in Queens English. Nothing he has ever done has really suggested he is extraordinary. As a comedian he is mediocre unless he latches onto someone far superior to himself. His books are rather basic and not what I would call brilliant. He is just an all round middle of the road, perhaps slightly above average, guy. If you consider the start in life he had he has only done reasonably for himself.
    :rofl:

    Why are you making off-topic comments?

    I think you are overstating how much Fry is liked, let alone loved. I know a few people who like him, and far more people who loathe him. The man just overexposes himself on any medium he can find and talks and talks, and people like you just pull up a pew to listen. It's very sad really, can't you think for yourself? I think you are showing up your intelligence here. First your cause is saving the life of one measily dog, when you could do that already if you were really bothered. Then you go off on one because your idol is insulted. I will let you off because you're only young. Fingers crossed you'll grow out of this phase and see how wrong you were.
    99% of humanity? Don't kid yourself only person who is loved by that amount is me. And personally fry is a posh ****

    Because there are many more people starving all over the world. That's a natural but incredibly unfortunate occurrence.

    Erm he is just painting people he dislikes with a brush that he is crying about being painted with himself? Is it totally beyond him that someone could piss other people off and upset them for fun? If he can't hack it he shouldn't expose himself as he does on the internet, but then if he didn't do that he'd have no career left (or very little of it) so it's catch-22 really.

    I have dozens of Scottish friends and was just on the wind up on that one, but I do genuinely think Stephen Fry is a dick who seems to attract Adrian Mole type teenagers who grow up into Adrian Mole type adults. "I'm an intellectual, no one understands me". Haha.
    That's the vibe I get from reading your posts here. That you've completely diverted the discussion to your little area where you can offer up your critique.

    The most authentic intellectuals I know, don't feel the need to fan their ego at every possible opportunity. Fry is totally irrelevant to the topic, and that should be fairly obvious given that you have been criticised from people regardless of whether they agree with you about the dog.

    This dog isn't a pit bull or a staff... It's just being put doing because it "looks like a staff", that's the worst part, and the fact is it's subjective.
    The law says "pitbull types" and this dog meets that criteria.

    Unfortunate because the dog has done nothing wrong but what else can you do? It is illegal to own this kind.

    Blame lies with the breeder. He should face some consequences legally.

    I have a dobermann so I understand how breeds can sometimes receive a stereotype.

    But let me contribute positively, if it's an illegal dog it should be put down. I live in a rough area and some guy wearing a balaclava set his illegal dog on me. I actually had to run for my life, I'd rather a few dogs died then I'd have got turned into a few snacks for that dog. If that had happened and I'd have got mauled he would have got a measly two year sentence? We all read those stories about nieces getting mauled by their idiotic uncles dog and surely safety is paramount.

    Erm, all Stephen Fry ever does is fan his ego at every possible opportunity, that's why I dislike him and his fanboys. That's the point.

    It's an American Bull Dog, that's the difference.
