Animal Rights groups
Any mention of AR groups immediately raises my hackles. Today there was a
story on the local news where the lead in was "Animal Rights group blahblahblah" (I was too pissed to hear anything at that point). As the story went on, though, it turns out that the HSUS is working to make animal cruelty a felony in Kentucky instead of just a misdemeanor. This, to me, is a good thing. I can't help thinking HSUS will use it against animal owners, somehow, at some point in time, but I digress. The reason for this action is the rise of animal cruelty in this backassward state (more likely an increase in reporting). This story, in particular, is getting a lot of attention: http://santaclara.networkofcare.org/...rticleID=14105 These sick ****s really need to have more than just a slap on the wrist. -- Lynne |

I can't help thinking HSUS will use it against animal owners, somehow, at some point in time You bet. A lot of people consider the mere use of prong collars, e-collars, tie-downs, etc. to be forms of "cruelty," too. And a lot of those same folks would he helping to write the laws.

We had a carbon copy of that case nearby, about three years ago. He got six months in jail, which was the easy part. He also got beaten so badly by fellow inmates that he almost died.

I can't help thinking HSUS will use it against animal owners, somehow, at some point in time, but I digress. The problem tends to be an overly broad definition of "cruelty." And when they try to get more specific, it tends to only get worse (anti-chaining laws, for example). I'm basically with you but there's a heck of a devil in the details. -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - If you can't say it clearly, you don't understand it yourself -- John Searle |
