Regardless of anything else 'Dog' is guilty of "Crimes against fashion" and "Unprovoked Abuse of a Mullet".

We take those things very seriously..

Ist Paragraph isn't so strange. I was alluding to police officers who have been the cause of hundreds of deaths in police custody, which why I said best left for another thread.

They are really over the top Christian. It is funny to see what looks like a group of biker gang meth-heads praying in a circle that their next hand-cuffing will go well. :-)

It's a simple case of protectionism. The UK mullet market isn't strong enough to withstand the onslaught of Dog's 'do. It's an artisanal industry, with mullets produced in small batches or even just one-off productions here and there... nothing at all like the massive industry in the US, which has been curtaining the reddest necks of our finest folk for decades.

Default The Dog

The Dog is one odd guy and I think his show is boring. I also think the U.K. is showing a bit of class by banning him.

That is to a large extent true but I feel it is the wanton abuse carried out against the Mullet by certain sections of the US population that has caused the most damage to the UK 'Mullét' industry.

The willful neglect and dare I say torturous conditions that Mullets had been forced to live under was really the nail in the coffin. As i'm sure your aware the US 'Southern' and 'Country & Western' markets were the mainstay of the UK markets ever since the collapse of the Euro "Metal Mullet" fetish of the late 80s championed by the likes of Europe, Whitesnake, The Scorpions and Def Leopard.

It was the rise to popularity of Billy Ray Cyrus that really did the damage in the early 90s.. Once the cruelty that he'd forced upon his Mullets became known it was a shock from which the industry never fully recovered. Upon further investigation it became apparent that he was just the tip of the ice-berg. After this came to light the hearts of the UK craftsman/breaders just weren't in it and it faded from it's Metal supporting magnificence to the small Eastern European club singer market that they are now currently supplying.

I'm sure you'll agree, it's a sad and heartbreaking state of affairs and the likes of 'Dog' can not be allowed to flaunt his Mullet in such a manner on our shores. Some things are just too sacred...

That, sir, is some damned fine satire.
