How long before NZ follows suit...

[scumdog]

criminals have rights too

More the pity.

(And not if I had my way, I'd prune a shit-load of 'rights' from them. Losers.)

[Laava]

Next thing you know, they will be complaining that the bus ticket is too wet and chaffing their little handywands!

[mowgli]

criminals have rights too

... lefts as well but neither should be used to commit crimes.

Do unto others as you would have done to you. When you deliberately molest another's rights, you ought to expect the same in return. Burn them!

[Swoop]

Fucken soft-cock, pencil-dicked, shit for brains, poofters who dreamed up that piece of shit idea.
Retards.

Edit: Pissant public servant scum-sucking maggots that dreamt up this bullshit set of rules...

[Daffyd]

Might as well get rid of police dogs, then.

[Pussy]

I feel sorry for the police dogs! Imagine having to get a mouthful of some of the pondscum they get sicked on to?

[Drew]

Rather absurd I think, but I imagine there will be a large outburst over it, and the guidelines will be re-written, to mean the same thing, but not re-released for public viewing.

Cant have the public upset, we'll not tell them shit instead.

Swoop, Ive heard that your a meek and humble kinda guy who doesnt really like to give his point of view... but for gods sake... wil you just for once say what you mean...?

[enigma51]

Im with nodrog people should be treated as equal and therefore has rights

[Dave Lobster]

It's Waeles. WTF do you expect??

If you knew NZ dog-handlers you would know their bellows would be heard from North Cape to Bluff.

Follows by the girlish screams of their over-sensetive clients.

That the handlers care sweet f.a. about.

[Okey Dokey]

How do the writers of such nonsense dream it up? They really must be out of their minds!

Sick 'em, Fang!

[PrincessBandit]

What a crock of [dog] shit (what the op was referring to, not other people's comments here!) I really cant understand why someone who breaks into my home, violently attacks me, steals my hard earned belongings etc etc etc should have more rights than me. Oh, sorry, how mean and self centred of me. I must really learn to put the needs of criminals before myself as I'm such a privileged member of society to have a job, a house, a car.... (all of these things of course just fell into my lap, I didn't have to actually work for them).
If dog handlers had to lose their working companions how long do you reckon before other forms of police weaponry are gotten rid of as well? Shit, we can't have crims being hurt in their line of "employment" can we. Perhaps they could form a union with their own OSH guidelines, including the scrapping of the use of police dogs, guns, tazers, batons, handcuffs (can cause chaffing on their poor 'ittle wristies)...

Well, the usual way "controversial" policy is rammed through is:

1. Extreme / over the top policy is mooted
2. Huge public outcry
3. Policy is "watered down in response to the public". This was in fact the policy really wanted
4. Gullible public breath a sigh of relief, despite the fact that if the end result was originally proposed, there would have been huge opposition.

It's all about managing expectations....

[CB ARGH]

So by looking at shop video footage of them nicking 2000 bucks outa some poor asses till, the plods can determine that the offender is allergic to dog hair, therefore they must not let that hungry dog snack on his balls.

Bull shit!

I find it hard to even believe that this whole thing is true.
