not everyone stewards animals well. have you ever seen a hoarder house/property? do you not know of the feral cat issue around the nation? dogfighting? greyhound abuse? irrespnsible breeders just letting domestic animals loose that don’t fit their requirements? humane societies deal with this every day. animal welfare/humane officers see it. they don’t make the crap up from nothing. there are so few of them they don’t have time to do that.

Oregon animal abuse laws, were already well established and violators have and will continue to be, fully prosecuted. Especially, in Oregon, of all areas. Laws do not prevent crime. Never have and never will. Grow up, take a good inventory of who you are, and proceed at your own risk.
