Once we have the ability the genetically manipulate our pet's DNA shouldn't we ban it immediately? Motherfuckers are going to start creating rottweiler that's be able to take your leg off in one bite.

Should that remain legal?

I'd be more concerned with the chimpocalypse.

This holy fuck. We cannot allow chimps or silverbacks to become human level smart or else they'll get rights. Do we really want these monsters running around our society? They can take a man's leg off with little effort.

dont blame the tech, blame the user.

cars can be used to kill people, but we dont make them illegal, because thats retarded.

anyone who makes a dangerous animal that commits a crime, the user is punished, the animal is destroyed.

just like if a normal rottweiler fucks someone up.

Okay OP, what if we start doing this to our unborn children just to make them better at living than us?
What happens if that modified DNA mutates and causes them to go berserk?

I bet you believe people should have the right to own guns too right?

Genetic engineering doesn't kill people, people kill people. If you're not gonna ban guns you shouldn't ban this, either.

When middle class can afford advanced genetical engineering of pets, themselves etc. no ban can stop it.

doesnt matter if its banned or not, people have and will find ways to work around the law. Guns are outlawed because they are easily exploitable and everyone can use them. The majority of the population doesn't a fucking clue what DNA even is.

I do not think that this technology would ever be available to the general public. It would be very exclusive.

Those with access to it would not use it so foolishly.
