Jokers like Caplan must be sterilized and then lobotomized!

Cat owners are by definition martyrs and should be venerated.

Arthur Caplan (sliced & diced) would be a dish best served cold to my feral pussy posse.

What we REALLY need is a fear-mongering tax.

And those of us who own birds stand behind this wholeheartedly!

In my cat’s eyes, this is like Mr. Caplan doing the “Bronx Salute” to them. Not good.

>> If cats are really causing healthcare problems in the way that I think they do, then I think we need to be fair and tax cat owners.

Well, Arthur... or is it DOCTOR Arthur... as long as it's all about what we “think” *might* be true...

if you're one-quarter the douchebag I *think* you are, then I *think* you should be hog-tied and thrown into the tiger cage at the national zoo.

How about that, you arrogant presumptuous meddlesome liberal SOB?

Cats look so cute when viewed through the scope of a Remington 700 SPS chambered in .308

Cats, like their owners, should follow Jesse Jackson’s sage advice... “Stay out da Bushes!”

So do people who would try to shoot my cats through the Illuminated Tactical Scope of a CZ-550 Safari Magnum chambered in .375 H&H Magnum. Makes a real mess!

On second reading:

I think Dr. Kaplan’s piece is pure sarcasm aimed at the “bioethics” nanny-staters.

Good sarcasm, too.

I apologize to the good Doctor, and take back my medieval punishment suggestion too!

Somehow I get the feeling that if rodents started to over run the country that Arthur L. Caplan, PhD would be one of the firsts to whine about it.....
