This Bill Would Drag the Federal Government Into Disputes Over Pets

I suppose this would also qualify for a DANG! and a shout out to the Doggie and Kitty ping lists.

[HLPhat]

>> who writes these acts...

Seems to be the same crowd of
SJWs who still pretend Matthew Shepherd wasn’t a drug dealer who got killed by one of his Methamphetamine playmates.

Nothing triggers “cultured” progressives like the reality of having been manufactured by multiple generations of FAIL.

Without victimhood their whole worldview collapses into reality.

The Real answer is to build up the social institutions they are determined to destroy — the family and community parish.

But that requires taking responsibility.

Why do that when being a victim is an entitlement program?

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Hopefully, nobody from the House Freedom Caucus is sponsoring this douchebaggery.

196 sponsors? Really???

[BBB333]

I suspect Paul Ryan is somebody’s pet...

[Tax-chick]

There are reports describing how victims will stay in abusive relationships to safeguard their animals, and experts attribute that behavior to the fact that very few domestic violence shelters permit animal companions—one of the many policies that Congress now seeks to change through grant funding.

At least 196 Congresscritters want the Federal government to give money to women's shelters so that women seeking shelter can bring their pets.

Yes, definitely the form of a female dog.

SEC. 4. Sense of Congress.
It is the sense of Congress that States should encourage the inclusion of protections against violent or threatening acts against the pet of a person in domestic violence protection orders.

Beat me to it!

If this keeps one person from beating a dead horse, this law may be worth it.

Emotionally distressing intimidation of a fish?

Yes, that’s when you keep them in a Waring blender instead of a proper fish bowl.

[Joe 6-pack]

Kathleen Willey’s cat was not available for comment.

[Ciaphas Cain]

No doubt emotional distress can cause drive some fish toward erratic behavior...

[ConservaTeen]

Pets and Women Safety Act? What about the children?? Are pets more up important than children??

[VTenigma]

They can pass this as long as they undo two other laws, starting with the ACA.

[I want the USA back]

The end goal is “rights” for animals. This is one small step.

PS. If it applies to women and not men, it is invalid prima facie.

[teeman8r]

sheesh

still hate essentially everything stupidly hackronymed...

[CincyRichieRich]

This is the kind of thing Trump should tweet, where the dems and fake republicans are focused...

[abclily]

This has to be a fake news story.
